8 Crazy Golf, Miniature Golf, Pitch N Putt Courses in Newquay

Whether you call it crazy golf, miniature golf, or pitch n putt, there are a few places you can check out to play this fun and popular pastime in Newquay and near to Newquay.

Barrowfields Crazy Golf Newquay

All of these facilities are seasonal, so expect them to only be open during the summer months.  It’s a great fun way to create lifelong memories!

If you’re looking for mini golf as part of a “day long experience and destination” then Lappa Valley is probably what you’re after.  If you want somewhere to spend an hour or two before moving on, then try Trenance.  If you’re simply wandering around and fancy a quick game then see if you’re close to any of the courses in town!

  1. Lappa Valley, just outside of Newquay, has an 18-hole crazy golf range and putting green on-site.  This steam-train theme park has extensive free on-site parking.   The crazy golf is located right in the middle of the complex, alongside the canoeing lake.  Entrance prices to the whole site are £10.50-13 (2018 prices), so definitely an activity to “make a day of it”, rather than dropping in, playing and leaving as all attractions are free once you’ve paid your entrance fee!  Dogs on leads allowed (£1/dog).

  2. Holywell Bay Fun Park & Holiday Park. They have crazy golf, football golf and pitch & putt.  Located near to Newquay on the Holywell Bay Fun Park, the 18-hole crazy golf course (plus a new, bonus, 19th hole!) has a Cornish theme, with fun and quirky holes.  Prices are £4/person (2016 prices).  The Pitch N Putt course has 18 holes.  Plenty of free on-site parking for visitors.

  3. Gilmore’s 18-hole Mini Golf in Tower Road, Newquay, is right in the heart of town, where it’s been for decades.  Formerly known as The Bunker, this mini golf course is located alongside Newquay Golf Club, you’ll find it by starting at the white tower and walking down the Tower Road about 50 yards, you can’t miss it, it’s right on the road.  It can be hit and miss if it’s open out of season, but if you’re close by then check it out.    This is a hard-surface mini golf course.

  4. Trenance Gardens has Trenance Crazy Golf and Pitch N Putt, close by – across the road, adjacent to Newquay Zoo and the swimming pool.  With 18 holes to complete, this is a great way to spend some time with friends or family. There is an on-site pay and display car park.  This is a very green and pleasant family-friendly space in which to play mini golf, with plenty more activities to “wander along to” next.

Owned by the ever-expanding Tolcarne Beach Complex, this crazy golf course is located just below the clifftop, on the curve of the access road to Tolcarne Beach, you can tell by peeking over the clifftop if it’s busy (or open)!
