Adventure Golf at Rochester Cathedral

There's an Adventure Golf course in the gardens at Rochester Cathedral as part of the All About Bridges exhibition this summer.

The course is part of the All About Bridges event that includes the World’s longest interlocking brick bridge - made of more than 200,000 bricks!

Visit the Rochester Cathedral website for more information.

Cathedral Crazy Golf in Rochester

There's a new Crazy Golf course at Rochester Cathedral in Kent.

Plans for the temporary Crazy Golf installation were announced earlier this year and the new course is now open to play.

The 9-hole Crazy Golf course is free to play and is a partnership between Rochester Cathedral and Rochester Bridge Trust. The layout has been supplied by HM Adventure Golf.

It's fair to say the pop-up Crazy Golf course's appearance in a religious setting has caused some controversy.

However, it's not the first time minigolf and cathedrals have mixed. Back in 2017 a complaint was made about a devil obstacle on a Crazy Golf course at the Winchester Hat Fair. That course was set-up in the grounds of Winchester Cathedral.

The Rochester Cathedral Crazy Golf course is from the same range as the course I recently played at The Palace Fun Centre in Rhyl.

You can play the Rochester Cathedral Crazy Golf course until the 1st September.

Mini Golf at Allhallows Leisure Holiday Park

A look at the Mini Golf course at Allhallows Leisure Holiday Park.

Our friends Sophia and Karl Moles kindly sent us some great snaps of the 12-hole Mini Golf course at the Haven Allhallows Leisure Holiday Park in Rochester, Kent.

The 12-hole Crazy Golf course has holes themed after areas of local interest such as the White Cliffs of Dover and Killick's Windmill.

I thought it was a bit odd that one of the holes is themed on Adventure Island in Southend-on-Sea - in Essex!? But Sophia explained that the holiday park has a clear view across the Thames Estuary to Southend-on-Sea. I wonder if you can see the Crazy Golf course that's at the very end of the pier too?

There are two Adventure Golf courses at Adventure Island in Southend-on-Sea. In fact I made my tournament debut on the course in the 2008 British Masters!

The course looks like a fun layout.

There's no sneaking passed this loop-di-loop obstacle

Sophia and Karl have previously sent us snaps of the Arnold Palmer Crazy Golf at Haven's Caister-on-Sea Holiday Park, as well as the course at Minigolf Sport Club Sanremo in Arma, Italy.
