Minigolf in Oxford, in December
On an icy cold and foggy Sunday in December what better way to spend your time than searching the historic City of Oxford for it's hidden Minigolf treasures.
Three of Oxford's parks are home to Minigolf courses, and all three are Swedish Felt courses!
The first park we visited was Cutteslowe and Sunnymead Park, in the north of the city, where we found the first of the three 9-hole courses.
Stop two of the day was at Headington's Bury Knowle Park.
Our last stop of the afternoon, and with the fog creeping in, was at Florence Park where I managed to get these photos just before the park gates closed.
We're now looking forward to returning to Oxford in the summer to improve our scores on these very testing Swedish Felt courses.
