Adventure Golf at Beacon Park in Lichfield, Staffordshire

A look at the new adventure golf course at Beacon Park in Lichfield, Staffordshire.

We swung by the adventure golf course at Beacon Park in Lichfield during an afternoon in the city on the way back home from a trip to visit family and friends in East Anglia.

Back in September 2017 we played the Eternit-style miniature golf course at Beacon Park. That layout became the 461st played and 775th visited on our travels.

The new course replaced the crazy golf course in the park and covers the same location

This particular Eternit miniature golf obstacle has been retained in the new course layout, with some modifications as can be seen below

The new adventure golf course at Beacon Park opened in May this year.

The adventure golf course at Beacon Park is a 9-hole outdoor woodland-inspired adventure golf layout.

It became the 1,129th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour since 2006.

Beacon Park in Lichfield is also home to a Pitch & Putt course.

Pitch & Putt Mini Golf at Onchan Pleasure Park on the Isle of Man

A look at the Pitch & Putt Mini Golf course at Onchan Pleasure Park on the Isle of Man.

On 'Minigolf Monday' this week I asked "Where in the world was this Pitch & Putt miniature golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?".

The answer was the Pitch & Putt Mini Golf at Onchan Pleasure Park on the Isle of Man.

We played the course during our holiday on the Isle of Man in 2018.

During our round I managed to score my first ever hole-in-one on a Pitch & Putt course. It came on hole 4.

Onchan Pleasure Park is also home to a 9-hole Crazy Golf course.

Guess the Pitch & Putt miniature golf course location...

Our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We've been to Llandudno and the Great Orme on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour several times over the years. We haven't played the Pitch & Putt before, but have swung by it.

This is a view of part of the course when it was known as Great Orme Family Golf in August 2018

When we first visited the Great Orme in 2009 we didn't realise the Pitch & Putt course was there as we didn't descend the headland on the town side.

It's excellent news to hear the Pitch & Putt course has now re-opened.

The Great Orme headland is also home to two other minigolf courses - one half-way up (Alpine Adventure Golf), and one right at the very top (Rocky Pines Adventure Golf)!

We're looking forward to re-visiting the seaside town and the Great Orme in the future.

Many thanks to the team at MiniLinks for letting us know about the Night Golf event. We're yet to make it back over to Fleetwood since MiniLinks took on the site on the Esplanade. We have previously visited the Pitch & Putt and Crazy Golf courses there, but that was when they were abandoned. MiniLinks Golf has spend a lot of time and effort getting the venue and its courses up and running. We're looking forward to giving them a play on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The Crazy Golf course at St Michael's Park in Cirencester

A visit to the Crazy Golf course at St Michael's Park in Cirencester, Gloucestershire.

Here's a look at the 12-hole outdoor Crazy Golf course at St Michael's Park in Cirencester, Gloucestershire.

I arrived shortly after a torrential rain shower hit the town on Wednesday 27th August 2025.

The course became the 1,095th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour since September 2006.

Closing in on our 1,100th minigolf course visit!

It's interesting finding unique crazy golf courses like the one at St Michael's Park. It's not a design or layout I've seen before, and the course certainly has some age to it. I wonder how many rounds have been played on it over the years?

You can watch some video Shorts of the course on my YouTube Channel too.

Crazy Golf at St Michael's Park in Cirencester in 2020.

Back in July 2020 our friend, minigolf rival and fellow adventure golf traveller Matt Dodd visited the course - it looked a lot more colourful half a decade ago!

Other games in St Michael's Park.

While the crazy golf course was flooded - and I'd arrived in the early evening when it was closed - the park was a nice spot for a wander, with a café, plenty of green space, tennis courts, and something else that caught my eye - a Petanque Piste!

The sign at the park also showed there's a Pitch & Putt course there, however this wasn't fully cut in, although I did find a few tee-off points dotted around in the grass.
