Hastings Adventure Golf, is in fact a complex of no less than three, 18-hole miniature golf courses, providing facilities suitable for players of all ages. This is the national centre for Miniature Golf in the UK and the home of the annual ‘Castle Golf World Crazy Golf Championships’ every October.
There are 2 ‘flagship’ courses, firstly the Florida-style Adventure Golf, with landscaped gardens, 7 waterfalls and no less than 37 fountains, including a spectacular ‘dancing waters’ display every few minutes. There’s even a cave to negotiate. There are spitting, talking ‘Tikki’ poles awaiting victims along the way as well. This course is tremendous fun and considered by many to be one of the finest in Europe. Thanks to the Tikki poles, there’s a good chance you’ll get a bit wet whilst playing this one! A family of four should allow up to an hour to play the course.
The second ‘flagship’ course and brand new for 2011 is ‘Pirate Golf’. Once again, 18 holes but watch out Mateys, this new course features waterfalls and streams, bridges, Pirate ships, firing cannons, explosions, a few rather large splashes – and more than a few extra surprises and sound effects along the way. This is a big course and a family of four should allow at least one hour to play it. You may get a bit splashed along the way too!
