Eaton Park Crazy Golf in Norwich

A look back at our visit to the Eaton Park Crazy Golf course in Norwich, Norfolk in May 2017.

The 18-hole Crazy Golf course was the 432nd played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. The layout was the 734th visited overall and the 707th we'd been to in the UK.

It's one of my all-time favourite courses and a course I could have stayed to play on all day long.

Our 2019 trip to Southampton saw us visit 18 more courses on our tour, playing eight of them. One of the courses we had a round on was the Crazy Putting Challenge at Hamptworth Golf Club in Wiltshire.

The excellent 9-hole course was the 875th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour and the 511th played.


We really enjoyed our game on the Crazy Putting Challenge at Hamptworth Golf Club. The staff at the club were very welcoming and we could've easily spent a few more hours enjoying the course.

The Rules of the Crazy Putting Challenge course

In our match-up over 18-holes I won with a score of 41 (20 and 21) to Emily's 44 (22 and 22).

I played two further rounds to try to shoot a sub-20 score, but hit another 21 and 20. It's the sort of course I could've played over and over again.

There was a nice little Putting Green at the Club too and a number of people were enjoying a round on the big golf course. Big being the operative word, as Hamptworth Golf Club is home to a 666 yard par-6 hole!

Halloween-themed minigolf?

Do you know of any courses or special events involving Halloween-themes?


Please let us know in the comments if you do, we'd love to share the details!

Crazy Golf at Stoke Park in Guildford

A look back at our visit to the Crazy Golf course at Stoke Park in Guildford, Surrey on National Miniature Golf Day in 2016.


Back in 2008 the Crazy Golf course in Guildford's Stoke Park became the 75th course played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Our visit this time was as part of the Surrey Invitational Minigolf Tournament that took place on National Miniature Golf Day 2016.


The Swedish Felt B-Run course used to be a 12-hole layout. In 2016 it had grown to be a full 18-holes, and had a very different playing surface - with astroturf 'grass' and raised 'bunkers'.


Check out the photos of the new 18-hole Crazy Golf course layout below.















The course was built by City Golf Europe

It's a very tricky layout

This hole was nigh on impossible to play!

This one was trickier now it has thicker 'grass'

The longest hole on the course

A loop-di-loop with felt on the outside of the obstacle!

Another very difficult hole to play
