Crazy Golf in Stourport on Severn

The last stop on our mini road-trip around the midlands was in Stourport on Severn. Ahead of our visit we'd seen there were two miniature golf courses there - an interesting looking jungle-themed crazy golf and a grass putting layout - but when we arrived at Playland in Riverside Park we found another crazy golf course! A nice bonus.

This was the course we'd seen online ahead of our visit to Stourport on Severn

The 9-hole Crazy Golf course at Playland became the 469th played and 789th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

In our match-up on the course I won with a score of 25 to Emily's 29.

The grass Putting course wasn't open on our visit and so became the 790th visited on our tour.

Well worth a play 

Stourport on Severn is an interesting town and well worth a visit. It has a seaside resort feel to it - dating back to its role as a day-trip destination for workers from Birmingham in times gone by. The colourful minigolf courses, variety of amusements, pubs and other facilities in the town make it a nice destination.

New minigolf video with The Putter King

One of my minigolf arch-rivals and I have collaborated on a new hole-in-one video. Check it out on 'The Putter King' Allan Cox's YouTube Channel.



My antipodean rival and friend has been YouTubing since 2011. Our fierce rivalry began during the worldwide Putter King Miniature Golf Scavenger Hunt in 2012! Allan won that.

Check out Allan's YouTube Channel for stacks of other minigolf and Putt-Putt videos - including his most popular upload which has received more than 4m views!

Crazy Cave Shooting Gallery in Stourport on Severn

Spotting a Crazy Cave Shooting Gallery at Playland Fun Park in Stourport on Severn.

I'm a big fan of the traditional seaside shooting shack and so I was pleased to find one I'd never seen before at Playland Fun Park in Stourport. We were in town to play the Crazy Golf courses and noticed the shooting gallery between the two kiosks. It was quite different to the classic 'Old Zeke' style we normally see on on our travels.

Bootleg Fred

It's not a true shooting shack unless it's got a lavvy to unlock!

For a landlocked town Stourport on Severn has a lot of amusements, minigolf courses and attractions! We're looking forward to another visit to the town.
