Crazy Golf at Callendar Park in Falkirk, Scotland

A visit to the Crazy Golf course in Falkirk's Callendar Park.

The final of the fourteen Miniature Golf courses we visited on our holiday in Scotland was at Callendar Park in Falkirk. The course became the 576th visited overall and the 233rd unplayed course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Unfortunately as we visited after spending the day out in Glasgow it was closed when we arrived. It looked like a good layout and similar to courses we've played in Motspur Park in London, Wimbledon Park and Wythenshawe Park in Manchester.

You can follow the Brown Signs to Callendar House and the park too.

A Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man in Ayr

Adding a sighting of a Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man to our collection.

While on holiday in Ayr we spotted a Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man at the Golden Disc Amusement Arcade on the seafront.

It was the first Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man we'd spotted on our travels in quite a while!

Derelict Minigolf course in Ayr

Finding another unplayable miniature golf course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour!

The 230th course NOT played on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour

When we arrived in Ayr we had a wander around the town and headed for the seafront. It was too late in the day to play the Mini Championship Golf course at Pirate Pete's, or the Crazy Golf and Mini Golf Putting on the seafront, but we scouted them out ready for a play on Monday.

Continuing just along the prom from the Crazy Golf and Putting I noticed a kiosk with a blanked out sign and guessed that it might be another Minigolf course. What I didn't realise was that it'd be a derelict 18-hole course!

On close inspection of the 'ghost sign' on the hut it said "Putting & Crazy Golf"! There was no sign of the Putting on the site anymore

The layout was a Miniaturegolf/Eternit type of course, with felt added to the concrete base. Quite a find!

The derelict Minigolf course in Ayr was the 230th course we've visited but not played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, and the 572nd visited overall since September 2006.

Golf Putting in Ayr, Scotland - 18-hole seafront course

Playing the seafront Putting course in Ayr.

After playing the Crazy Golf course on the seafront in Ayr we headed over the fence for the second round of minigolf on the site and the 18-hole Putting course.

In our Putting match-up I defeated Emily by one shot, 42 to 43.

The seafront Putting Green course in Ayr became the 342nd played and 570th visited on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The course was well maintained and good fun to play. There is also a second-round-half-price deal at the two courses - both are well worth a play if you're in Ayr.

At the seafront Crazy Golf and Putting courses in Ayr

After playing the Mini Championship Golf course at Pirate Pete's in Ayr on Monday 28th July we headed down to the beach for a walk on the sand, before returning along the promenade to play on the Crazy Golf and Putting courses we'd spotted upon arriving in Ayr on the Saturday.

The Ayr seafront Crazy Golf course looks good and has a mix of wooden and fibreglass obstacles (upon its wooden frame)

The Crazy Golf course is in a great location just off the promenade

Emily plays a shot on the Ayr course. There are some great views from the layout

An unfortunate shot landed me in a tricky spot!

Putting at Ayr Crazy Golf

In our Crazy Golf match on the course I beat Emily 43(+7) to 47(+11).



The seafront Crazy Golf course in Ayr became the 342nd played and 570th visited on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

I really liked the clubs in use at the course, they were really high-quality putters.

Right next to the Crazy Golf course is a very good 18-hole Putting Course that we played too. The courses have a great deal where your second round (on either course) is half-price.

The seafront Putting course in Ayr lies just beyond the Crazy Golf course
