Porthmadog Crazy Golf

A look at the Porthmadog Crazy Golf course.


Many thanks to our friend and minigolf rival Jam Trubridge for sending over this snap of the Crazy Golf courses in Porthmadog in Wales. What a sad sight.

We visited the courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in 2009. At that time there was this Swedish Felt course, the fibreglass course in the background and a grass Putting course to the right.

We visited the three minigolf courses in Porthmadog
during our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour road trip around the Welsh coast in 2009. Unfortunately we didn't get to play them though.

Fingers crossed we'll get to have a round on the layouts this year.

Not playing Minigolf, Crazy Golf or Putting in Porthmadog

Following our visit to the excellent Leisure Park at Tywyn on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour of Wales we set off to visit Criccieth, via Porthmadog.

Whilst driving through Porthmadog town centre we noticed a Crazy Golf course in a park area and set about finding a parking space.

However when we arrived at the kiosk (at 5.30pm) we were turned away from playing as we were told the course closed at 6pm, despite the fact that other people were still playing!? So unfortunately the course lost out on two customers paying to (very quickly) play on their 9-hole Crazy Golf, 9-hole Minigolf and 9-hole Putting Green that all looked to be good fun.

The courses looked good, but unfortunately the customer service was poor.
