The Golfing Hole Adventure Golf course in Swindon, Wiltshire

A look back at The Golfing Hole Adventure Golf course in Swindon, Wiltshire.

Last week I asked the question "Where in the world was this indoor adventure golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?".

The answer was The Golfing Hole Adventure Golf course in Swindon, Wiltshire.

We played the indoor adventure golf course at The Golfing Hole in Swindon on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in January 2015.

Sadly the unique factory-themed venue is now a lost minigolf course.

Crazy Golf at Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park in Wales

Looking back at a lost minigolf course.

Last week I asked "Where in the world was this crazy golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?".

The answer was at Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park in Wales.

We first played the course in 2014 and revisited it in 2017 and 2018.

Sadly the Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park has now closed down.

We're glad we got to stay at the holiday camp and play the course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we did.

One of the fun and intriguing places we had a game of minigolf was UNDERNEATH a rollercoaster at the Fantasy Island theme park in Ingoldmells, Skegness, Lincolnshire, England back in May 2011!

Sadly this particular crazy golf course is a lost course. Fantasy Island is now home to an 18-hole course called Lava Creek Adventure Golf. It's a course we are yet to visit on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We visited the crazy golf course at Gynn Gardens in Blackpool back in September 2009.

It's now a lost course as it was removed at some point between October 2009 and November 2012.

Do you have memories of playing the crazy golf course at Gynn Gardens?

It was of a similar design to the crazy golf course nearby on Princess Parade and in the town's Stanley Park.

Gynn Gardens was also home to a grass putting miniature golf course.

We're glad we had the chance to play the unique layout on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we did.

In our minigolf match-up Emily won with a round of 53 to my score of 66. It's still one of the largest winning margins between us in the last 20 years!

Looking back at The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove in Weymouth, Dorset.

I visited and played The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove in Weymouth on the 11th October in both 2008 and 2009 while in town for the Weymouth Open Adventure Golf tournament at the Pirate Adventure Golf course at the nearby Sea Life Centre.
