A lost minigolf course - Pirate Crazy Golf at Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park

A look at the Pirate Crazy Golf course at Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park in East Sussex.

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

The answer was the Pirate Crazy Golf course at Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park in Camber Sands, East Sussex.

The Pirate Crazy Golf course at Pontins Camber Sands became the 585th visited and 351st course played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we swung by for a round in October 2014.

Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park closed in 2023 so the course is not accessible.

Blackbeard's Adventure Golf in Hunstanton

A revisit to Blackbeard's Adventure Golf in Hunstanton, Norfolk.

Last month we revisited the east coast resort (that faces west) and while there swung by Blackbeard's Adventure Golf on the Southern Promenade on Hunstanton seafront.

Blackbeard's Adventure Golf Hunstanton consists of two 9-hole outdoor courses - The Aztec Trail & Blackbeard's Adventure courses.

We played the two courses at Blackbeard's Adventure Golf on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in 2011! We can't believe it's been 15 years since we last visited Hunstanton.

Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea

A look at Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea.

Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea, Hampshire, England was the first place we visited on what would become our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We played the Victory Trail course at Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea, Hampshire, England on Saturday 30th September 2006.

At the end of our 9-hole round I won a free game by firing the cannon on the lucky last hole!

When we got home from the weekend away we found a list of 600 or so minigolf courses in the UK and wider British Isles. We thought it'd be fun to see how many of them we could visit on day trips and weekends away to the seaside.

To date we've been to 1,114 miniature golf courses. 1,053 of them have been in the British Isles.

When our crazy golfing travels began in 2006 there were around 600 miniature golf courses in the UK and wider British Isles.

There are now more than 1,400 - and there are lots of new places to play the game opening all the time.

Pirate Cove Adventure Golf course in Aberavon, Wales

A look at the Pirate Cove Adventure Golf course in Aberavon, Port Talbot in May 2019.

The 12-hole Pirate Cove Adventure Golf course became the 885th course visited and 516th played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when I was there to play in the 2019 Welsh Minigolf Doubles Championship in May 2019.

We warmed up for Sunday's tournament with a singles competition to celebrate National Miniature Golf Day. The in-form David Hartley added to his recent trophy haul by taking the win by one-shot, with Marion Hartley and me tied for second place.

Created by the Natural Play Company, Pirate Cove Adventure Golf is a tricky layout and while there are hole-in-one opportunities, they are few and far between!

Crazy Golf course at the Rhos Fynach pub and restaurant in Rhos on Sea

A look back at playing the Crazy Golf course at the Rhos Fynach pub and restaurant in Rhos on Sea on Miniature Golf Day 2017.

You can find the course on Rhos Promenade

We began a holiday in North Wales at Colwyn Bay and Rhos on Sea on Miniature Golf Day in 2017. To celebrate the occasion we teed-off on the Crazy Golf course at the Rhos Fynach pub and restaurant in Rhos on Sea.

The sign has a nice map of the course

Nice to see a windmill on the course

The Crazy Golf at the Rhos Fynach in Rhos on Sea became the 462nd course played and 781st visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The green of the windmill hole has a plateau on it too

In our match-up on the 9-hole course I won with a score of 31 to Emily's 34.

Playing out the windmill hole

Hole 3 - The Squid - is one of two holes on the course that has a choice of cups to aim for. A 'Kids' and an 'Adults' version - both were pretty tough!

The pirate ship on the 6th hole

 

Always nice to see some Crazy Golf advertising

The course has an excellent scorecard with a nice map of the layout.

The course map is a neat touch
