Crazy Golf and Putting in Grange-over-Sands

A visit to the Crazy Golf and Putting courses at Promenade Recreation Park in Grange-over-Sands.

On our way home from a trip to Barrow last June we added two more minigolf courses to our visited list after playing the Crazy Golf and Putting Green at Promenade Recreation Park in Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria.

The courses were the 820th and 821st visited overall on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour and were the 485th and 486th we've been able to play on our travels.

Our friend and minigolf rival Marc Bazeley visited the course and guest blogged about it in 2017.

The courses at Grange Promenade Park are the sister courses to those at White Platts Recreation Ground in Ambleside, Cumbria. We visited those during a road-trip in April 2012. The Crazy Golf course in Ambleside was the 463rd we visited.

Jiggers Miniature Golf at Thorpeness Golf Club & Hotel

A visit to Jiggers Miniature Golf at Thorpeness Golf Club & Hotel in Suffolk.

Last May we played the Jiggers Miniature Golf course that had recently opened at Thorpeness Golf Club & Hotel in Suffolk.

Jiggers Miniature Golf is a 9-hole minigolf course on the banks of the Meare boating lake. It was a nicely designed and fun layout to play.

The Jiggers Miniature Golf course at Thorpeness Golf Club & Hotel was the 479th played and 814th visited overall on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The scorecard from the course is a nice souvenir

We loved the postcard-style of the scorecard

 

 

Visit the Thorpeness Golf Club & Hotel website for more information, opening times and prices.

The course was built by City Golf

Miniature Railway in Thorne Memorial Park

A visit to the miniature railway in Thorne Memorial Park.

While en route to Cleethorpes last May we drove through the town of Thorne near Doncaster, South Yorkshire and out of the corner of our eyes we spotted what looked like a miniature railway as we passed over a bridge near the canal. We had to stop off for a look at it.

Sadly there were no trains running on the day we were there.

The Miniature Railway in Thorne Memorial Park is operated by the Doncaster & District Model Engineers Society.
