Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf at Stonham Barns

A look at the Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course at Stonham Barns.


Last April we revisited Stonham Barns in Suffolk to play the new Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course.

In 2018 we'd called in to Stonham Barns Golf Park and seen the course under construction.


We've been to Stonham Barns a number of times before when visiting family in nearby Ipswich.


The old Crazy Golf course there was the 33rd played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in August 2007.

We've now visited a total of 865 courses since September 2006. When we began there were around 600 courses in the UK. There are now more than 1,000!

Check out the Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course website for more information, opening times and prices.

Adventure Golf at Stonham Barns in Suffolk

A look at the new Adventure Golf course under construction at Stonham Barns in Suffolk.


Last month we swung by Stonham Barns in Suffolk to take a look at the new Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course being built at the leisure and retail venue.

The Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf layout replaces the old Crazy Golf course at the site. That course was the 33rd played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in August 2007!

The new Adventure Golf course will certainly be different in style to the old course.

We're looking forward to a game on the new Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course when we next return to Suffolk.

Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf at Stonham Barns in Suffolk

We've heard that Stonham Barns in Suffolk is opening a new Adventure Golf course!

We've played the Mini-Putting course there a few times over the years, as Stonham Barns is close by when we're visiting family in Ipswich.

That course was the 33rd of the 806 we've visited so far on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. The last time we were there was in 2013.

It's interesting to hear about the new Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course. We look forward to swinging by on a future visit to East Anglia.

The Adventure Golf course will be one of eight elements making up the UK's first Golf Adventure Park located at Stonham Barns.

Looking on the Stonham Barns Golf Centre website I also noticed they have a thing called 'Street Golf'. I'm interested in seeing that too.
