We visited Daisy Made Farm on our way to a Lincolnshire seaside holiday in May 2011. Back then the Crazy Daisy Golf course was a Swedish Felt B-Run type with added farmyard obstacles.

We're looking forward to revisiting and playing the new layout on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Shed minigolf

Chatting with Andrew Wilcox of Readers Sheds and the Shed of the Year Awards I was reminded of this excellent shed-based crazy golf hole we played back in 2010.

Garden minigolf in East Finchley, London

Not only do you putt into a shed, but it's a musical obstacle too. Marvellous.

Garden minigolf in East Finchley, London

The garden crazy golf course in East Finchley was the 250th we visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We've now been to 956 courses since 2006.

The Crazy World of Minigolf Tour

Christopher and his family have visited 36 courses on their branch of the tour, 26 of those have been unique to them. Emily and I have visited 956 courses on the main tour.

Christopher has been to four courses in 2020.

We've been to a total of 46 courses in 2020, with 15 of those being new courses visited. We've swung by eight new courses in the time of coronavirus.

We've got 40 of the original 600 we set out to visit left and a lot of new courses to play at too!

We visited Pembrey Country Park and played the old Crazy Golf course there way back in 2009 during our road-trip around the Welsh coast.

It'll be nice to visit Wales again in the future and have a game on the new 18-hole layout on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We had a holiday booked in Wales in April but that was scrapped thanks to the pandemic.

Peterborough Minigolf at Dobbies Garden Centre

A look back at our first visit to Peterborough Minigolf at Dobbies Garden Centre.


It's been over five years since we first visited the Peterborough Minigolf course at Dobbies Garden Centre. Time certainly flies!

It only seems a short while ago that we swung by for a game.

Peterborough Minigolf at Dobbies Garden Centre, July 2015

It's a brilliant 12-hole course, full of testing layouts and obstacles. A nice test of putting skill.

The course was the 382nd played and 662nd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We've now been to 954 courses in total since September 2006.

We actually revisited Peterborough Minigolf in February of this year on one of our last road-trips before the coronavirus pandemic hit.

Visit the Peterborough Minigolf course website for more information.


The course was another superb build by the team at UrbanCrazy.

Garden Minigolf

A look at Putting at Home.


UrbanCrazy Garden Minigolf in East Finchley

We visited our 250th minigolf course ten years ago and it was one of the most unique layouts we've played.

The first, and to date only, garden shed I've putted into

We've now been to 948 miniature golf courses since 2006.

The 9-hole minigolf course was tailor-made and features some challenging obstacles and changeable holes!

UrbanCrazy Garden Minigolf in East Finchley

It was built so games can vary from round to round and range from a 6-hole to a 9-hole course.

UrbanCrazy Garden Minigolf in East Finchley

In 2011 I was runner-up in the London Invitational Tournament held at the course.

UrbanCrazy Garden Minigolf in East Finchley

The marvellous back garden minigolf course was designed and built by UrbanCrazy, a UK-based minigolf business that designs and builds permanent miniature golf courses, provides portable layouts, supplies equipment and more.

Are you putting at home during the lockdown and isolation of social distancing?


We've seen quite a few indoor and garden crazy golf courses created over the last few weeks.


Our friends Pat and Mandy at The Putting Penguin were quick to organise the Putting Penguin Pandemic Putt Off – a stay-at-home putting competition with entries being submitted from around the world.

Our pals Tom and Robin at A Couple of Putts have also been logging all manner of isolation minigolf courses on their social media.

We've got plans for some indoor minigolf layouts too. We've also got quite a few minigolf games in the Crazy Golf Museum.

While a lot of the minigolf world is out of action, plans are still being drawn up for new courses, work is ongoing to finish courses where permissible, and ideas formulated for when it's safe to get back out on the course. If you'd like to have a chat about minigolf, marketing, minigolf marketing, or competitive socialising please do get in touch.
