We played the Jocks Lane Park Crazy Golf course back in July 2011. It was the 254th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Back then it was an 18-hole layout, with half of the holes being a Swedish Felt B-Run type and the other half being farm-themed.

It's still an 18-hole course, however the 9 Swedish Felt holes have been replaced by 9 others.

Safari Adventure Golf at Woodlands Family Theme Park in Totnes

A look at the Safari Adventure Golf course at Woodlands Family Theme Park in Totnes, South Devon.

Many thanks to our friend, minigolf rival and fellow minigolf explorer Matt Dodd for sending over these photos from his recent visit to play the Safari Adventure Golf course at Woodlands Family Theme Park in Totnes, South Devon.

This is an interesting hole as this green is it. There isn't any lane leading up to it. It's also a raised 'volcano' type hole so isn't as flat as it first appears in the photo. Quite strange

Visit the Woodlands Family Theme Park website for more information, opening times and prices.

It's a course we haven't yet been to on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Junglemania Adventure Golf in Farnham

A look at the new Junglemania Adventure Golf course in Farnham, Surrey.

Last month our friend, minigolf rival and fellow crazy golf adventurer Matt Dodd let us know about a new course opening near to him. The course is now open and he's been along for a round.

Junglemania Adventure Golf is an 18-hole jungle-themed course at Bowenhurst Lane in Farnham, Surrey.

The course has some long holes

What's in the box?

I like the elephant effect on this hole. That looks like a tricky crossing straight to the cup too

Check out the Junglemania Adventure Golf website for more information, opening times and prices.

Matt and Helen Dodd and their family have visited hundreds of courses on their travels. There are a number of courses they have played that we haven't got to yet, and vice versa. Together we've almost been to them all!

Matt tells me that the course plays very well and has a number of obstacles and hole designs he hadn't seen before on his travels.

We're looking forward to a future visit and a 'friendly' competitive round against Matt and Helen on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Junglemania Adventure Golf opening in Farnham this July

A new Adventure Golf course is opening in Farnham, Surrey next month.

A big thanks go to my friend and fellow minigolf fanatic Matt Dodd for letting me know about the new 18-hole Junglemania Adventure Golf course opening in Farnham, Surrey on the 23rd of July.

Visit the Junglemania Adventure Golf website for more information, opening times and prices.

It's another new course for us to visit on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we're next down in Surrey. We haven't played a jungle theme for a while.

Matt and his family have visited hundreds of courses on their crazy golf adventures and it's always brilliant to meet up with them for a game. Matt has managed to track down and play quite a lot of courses that we're yet to visit on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour! 

We have played minigolf on the spot that the Jurassic Bay Adventure Golf course now sits - in fact we played it in its two previous forms.

Crazy Golf at Rylstone Tea Gardens in Shanklin on the Isle of Wight

A look at the Rylstone Tea Gardens Crazy Golf course in Shanklin, Isle of Wight.

My friend and minigolf rival Matt Dodd sent me this photo of the Crazy Golf course at Rylstone Tea Gardens in Shanklin on the Isle of Wight during his minigolfing trip there last summer.

We've been to the course and seen it in two iterations. The first time was when the layout was on the original wooden course design in 2008. When we returned in 2016 the layout was using many of the original obstacles but in a concrete setting.
