On Sunday 12th December 2010 while driving through Ipswich we spotted a sign on a roundabout advertising the Fynn Valley Golf Club in nearby Witnesham. We decided to have a look to see what was there, and found two Putting Greens! The Golf Club also has an 18-hole course and a 9-hole course, along with a Driving Range.
The Putting Course below is located next to the Driving Range.
A blog about our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. With a sprinkling of nostalgia and urban exploration for good measure.

Felixstowe Minigolf Updates - and a Match at Mannings
On Saturday 11th December we headed to Felixstowe, Suffolk to re-visit the minigolf courses there.
First up was a visit to Mannings Amusements, where we played an Irregular Mini Golf match at the Indoor Magical Golf.
I defeated Emily in the Irregular Mini Golf Tour match 36 shots to 41. Neither of us won a free game though.
The Magical Golf course was originally the 5th course we played on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, back when it was called Golf FX.
Next we had a look at the Adventure Golf course. It was closed for the season.

A little way along the seafront we found that the 'storied' Hollywood Holes Crazy Golf course has now been removed!
The well-travelled 'Hollywood Holes' are no longer there!?
There's also a 'Dolphin' Guarding the Go Karts and Fairground (much like the one at the Crazy Golf course in St Albans).
Next up we had a look at the location where a course was going to be built a couple of years ago, it's next to the Donkey Rides area (itself formerly a Putting Course).
A little way down the seafront, next to the Leisure Centre and Pier, we had a look at the area that used to house a Crazy Golf course. It's still empty, although you can see where the holes used to sit.

Ipswich Minigolf course 'finds' on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour
On Saturday 11th December 2010 we headed back to Ipswich and while there we popped along to the Suffolk Leisure Park as we'd heard there was a Mini Golf Putting Course there.
When we arrived we were surprised to see there was also a brand new Minigolf/Crazy Golf course being built!
The course is that new that the holes themselves have yet to be cut out!
The Putting Course/Green was unplayable as it was out-of-season.
We're looking forward to visiting and playing the new Minigolf course when we return to Ipswich.
We also found a couple of Putting Greens just outside of Ipswich on Sunday - at the Fynn Valley Golf Club in Witnesham (near Westerfield).
Back on the 24th July 2010 we played a portable Crazy Golf course in Ipswich's Christchurch Park.
