Singing Hills Golf Centre is outside Brighton & Hove, about 18 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
Three nine-hole loops (Lake, River and Valley) designed by Richard Hird, which you can combine into any 9, 18 or 27 holes, at the foot of the South Downs. The range has 14 covered, floodlit bays with Toptracer and is open to the public. It's in the same group as East Sussex National. On 31 October 2026 all three combinations were open and buggies were not in use.
Best for
- The closest Toptracer range to Brighton
- Any two of three nines for 9, 18 or 27 holes
Skip if
- You want winter rates now (none are published yet)
