Adventure Golf at The Railway Inn in Westerfield, near Ipswich

Playing the new Adventure Golf course at The Railway Inn in Westerfield.

We played the 9-hole outdoor Adventure Golf course in the pub beer garden of The Railway Inn in Westerfield, near Ipswich, Suffolk on a visit to the town to see family.

The course opened in March this year.

In our minigolf match-up Emily won with a round of 24 to my score of 27.

When combined with my brother Christopher and his family's branch of the tour we're currently at 1,111 courses visited overall.

Abbey Gardens Crazy Golf in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk

A look at the Crazy Golf course at the Abbey Gardens in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

Emily spotted a Crazy Golf course at the Abbey Gardens in Bury St Edmunds on a trip to the town in June. On our recent return to visit some of our family we noticed the course had moved locations within the park.

The Abbey Gardens Crazy Golf in Bury St Edmunds is open from April to October.

Find out more about the course on the Abbey Gardens website.

This particular Crazy Golf course in the gardens is the second we've visited there, the first was another pop-up back in 2008. That was the 71st on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We've now been to 1,064 courses since 2006!

The course was closed when we walked by

A video rental shop in 2024: Northgate Video & DVD in Bury St Edmunds

Spotting a video rental shop in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

We recently visited family in Bury St Edmunds and on our drive out of the town we spotted a the sign for Northgate Video & DVD - a video rental shop!

We've spent the last few years documenting the last traces of Blockbuster Video stores here in the UK, and we've found some other video shop signage on our travels. So it was brilliant to find Northgate Video & DVD in Bury St Edmunds was still trading. Unfortunately it was a Bank Holiday so the shop wasn't open, but we're planning to visit next time we're in the area.

Northgate Video & DVD in Bury St Edmunds is one of only a handful of video rental shops still in business in the UK. Long may it continue!

Magical Golf FX in Felixstowe

A revisit to the Magical Golf FX course at Mannings Amusements in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

We had a few games on the arcades at Mannings Amusements just before it closed for the evening after a visit to Beach Street on a recent return trip to the seaside town. The indoor crazy golf course is one of our most visited courses as we've spent so much time in Felixstowe over the years.

Check out the Mannings Amusements website for more information.

Adventure Golf on Sea Road in Felixstowe

A revisit to the Adventure Golf course on Sea Road in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

We swung by the Adventure Golf course on Sea Road in Felixstowe on a recent return trip to the seaside town. The 9-hole outdoor course is very likely our most visited course as we've spent so much time in Felixstowe over the years.

There have been plans for the course to be removed and replaced with houses, so it was nice to see it was still there.

New pétanque piste in Felixstowe

A pétanque piste is one of the features of the new activity park on Sea Road in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

It was nice to see the new pétanque piste on Felixstowe sea front. We'll have to remember to take our boules with us next time we visit.

Tredegar Park Mini-Golf has reopened

The Tredegar Park Mini-Golf course in Newport, Wales has reopened.

The course was damaged in an arson attack earlier this year and has managed to re-open following the damage caused.

The course and new hut/kiosk is looking very good. You can find out more on the Tredegar Park Mini Golf Facebook Page.

The Tredegar Park Mini Golf course was the 192nd played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in August 2010. It was one of the courses played as part of the 2010 Cystadleuaeth Minigolff Cymraeg (Welsh Minigolf Tournament).

Hole 9 on the course was an absolute round killer back in 2010! I wonder what it's like now...?

It'll be interesting to see how the course plays all these years later. From the photos on the course's Facebook Page it looks in nice condition - and from what I've heard is still a great test of putting skill.
