Minigolfing in the Netherlands. In Andover

We played an around-the-world themed indoor minigolf course in Andover, Hampshire back in May 2019.

Each of the holes was themed after a different country. Hole 1 was the Netherlands.

The Glo-Golf course at the Riverside Bowl in Andover was the 882nd course visited and 514th played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We've now been to 958 courses since September 2006.

We're yet to play in the Netherlands itself. However, my brother Christopher - a charter member of the tour - has played a Time Travel themed GlowGolf course in Amsterdam and swung by the Midget Golf course in Muiderberg.

Around the world in 9 minigolf holes

A minigolf trip around the world.


While the outdoor playing part of our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour is on hiatus because of the coronavirus pandemic it doesn't stop us taking a trip around the world by looking back at the Glo-Golf course in Andover.


Our road-trip to Southampton last May saw us visit 18 more courses, playing eight of them. One of those was the 9-hole indoor Glo-Golf course at the Riverside Bowl in Andover.


Each of the holes on the Glo-Golf course is themed on a certain city or country.

Hole 6 - Where is this? Could it by Thailand? Or is it Japan? Or somewhere else in South East Asia? The flag on the building to the left is part of the Thailand flag, but missing the red lines above the white lines

Minigolf in Paris

We've played two Paris-themed minigolf holes this year - one at the Riverside Bowl's Glo-Golf course and one on the Landmark Golf layout at Wolsingham Sports Hall

I have been to Blackpool though.

Each of the holes on the Glo-Golf course is themed after a certain city or country. It looks superb.
