A little bit of indoor minigolf in Woking

Climbing aboard a pirate ship to play some adventure golf.

On our travels we've found a few indoor Miniature Golf courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, but on a recent trip to Woking we weren't expecting to find an indoor hole on a pirate ship!

The UV / Black Light indoor hole on the 12-hole Pirate Island Adventure Golf course at Hoebridge Golf Centre is a great hole-in-one opportunity, but unless there are fellow players inside to see the end of the shot you won't know if the ball is in or not until you step aboard the ship.

You begin playing the first of two minigolf holes aboard the pirate ship at Pirate Island Adventure Golf OUTSIDE! From the tee you have to successfully get the ball up the pipe beyond the blue crate. And if you're lucky you'll be rewarded with an ace

As the weather is getting colder and wetter you may want to head indoors for a bit of minigolf fun. Do check out my blog post on Indoor Minigolf, Crazy Golf and Adventure Golf courses we've found to date.
