Landmark Adventure Golf in New Brighton

A look back at our visit to the Landmark Adventure Golf course in New Brighton on National Miniature Golf Day 2017.


After playing the Championship Adventure Golf layout we stepped onto the second of the two 18-hole courses on Kings Parade in New Brighton to tackle the Local Landmarks Adventure Golf course.

The Landmark Adventure Golf course was the 731st visited and 431st played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

In our match on the brilliant Landmark Adventure Golf course I won with a score of 50 to Emily's 53.

Championship Adventure Golf in New Brighton

Visiting Championship Adventure Golf in New Brighton

On Saturday 13th May (National Miniature Golf Day) we headed to New Brighton to play the two Championship Adventure Golf courses on King's Parade.

Championship Adventure Golf in New Brighton is home to 36-holes of minigolf

Championship Adventure Golf opened in 2014 and we've been looking forward to playing the courses since then. It was worth the wait. Both the Championship and Local Landmark layouts are superb miniature golf courses and in great condition.

The courses became the 730th and 731st visited and 430th and 431st played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

There's a nice little four-hole putting green to warm-up before hitting the full 18-holes

I really like the golf ball topped flag poles at the course

In our matches I defeated Emily 48-52 and 50-53.





The courses are not easy, but they do reward good putting skills. While you're unlikely to get a lot of holes-in-one, there is a nice incentive to do so, as you receive a badge to mark the achievement!

I managed to get one ace on each course, while Emily scored two perfect shots on the Landmark course.

We enjoyed our day out at the resort and we're looking forward to a return visit to the courses and New Brighton as a whole.



Head over to the Championship Adventure Golf website for more info, prices and opening times.

The new courses are certainly different to the old 18-hole Kings Parade Crazy Golf course that we had a look at on our only other visit to New Brighton back in 2011. The Adventure Golf courses at Kings Parade Gardens were built on the area once used for tennis courts. The old concrete Crazy Golf course sat to the left of the steps you took to reach the courts.

Many thanks to my friend and minigolf rival Stephen Skinner of the Welsh Minigolf Club for sending over these superb snaps from he and his wife Laura's visit to the Globalls Crazy Golf course in Brighton.

It's a course Emily and I have wanted to play on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour for a while. It opened up after our last visit to the seaside town. We're hoping to get back down there again next year.

Globalls is home to two 12-hole indoor glow-in-the-dark minigolf courses. One has a dinosaur theme while the other has a jungle theme.

I'm a big fan of UV Glow-in-the-Dark miniature golf courses and it's lovely to see how bright and colourful Globalls is. The scary obstacles and decorations look really smart too.
