Rustington Golf Centre, Angmering

A big floodlit Toptracer range with a pay-and-play par 68 course and three Foresight simulators, but at about 42 minutes it's the furthest place on our map. Worth it for the tracer bays.

Rustington Golf Centre is outside Brighton & Hove, about 42 minutes' drive from central Brighton (our estimate, not a routed journey). We list it because golfers here drive, and a page that pretends otherwise is no use to you. See all nearby options.

What it's like

One site with a floodlit range (28 covered bays and 5 outdoor bays, with Toptracer and Power Tee on 20), a pay-and-play par 68 parkland course next to it, and The Clubroom with three Foresight simulators, AR darts, pool and shuffleboard. The course can be played as 9 or 18 holes. Parking is free.

Best for

  • Toptracer range sessions (Toptracer and Power Tee on 20 bays)
  • Pay-and-play golf from £23 for 18 holes

Skip if

  • You don't want a long drive (about 42 minutes)
  • You are sensitive to slow rounds (reviewers complain about pace)

Golfers are critical

Pace of play

Four reviewers (2024 to 2026) say rounds are slow: "6 min tee times" make it "slow", "pace of play" is listed as a con, "3 ball tee bookings" are met by "4+ ball" groups, and one waits "5 minutes between shots".

4 cited quotes, with sources
“6 min tee times makes it slow and very hard to get your game going, don’t bother during school holidays as it’s 5+ hrs to play 9 holes twice, painfull”
Matt AGolfshake, Jul 2026Read it on golfshake.com
“Cons - Tee times don't seem to apply, pace of play. Not enough variety in tee positions to make the second 9 much different from the first 9.”
Paul AGolfshake, Apr 2026Read it on golfshake.com
“Very windy day, slow play. even with 3 ball tee bookings people think its still okay to rock around as a 4+ ball.”
Matt WGolfshake, May 2025Read it on golfshake.com
