Founded
in 1910,
the
Club was originally situated off the Old Shoreham Road on the boundary between Hove and Portslade.
However, in 1991, the construction of the 'Brighton by-pass' meant the
Club had to relocate.
It
can now be found
off the A27 trunk road
at the Hangleton Interchange. The 'new' Clubhouse and golf course are
situated in the midst of the South Downs, in an
area of outstanding natural beauty, and from 2010 they have been included
within the
South Downs National Park.
The 18-hole golf course is
laid out over rolling chalk downland and is a challenging par 70. Being in
one of the warmest and driest parts of the country, coupled with the chalk
terrain, the course is almost always playable.
The superb modern clubhouse
caters for wedding receptions, private functions and business seminars. The first
class restaurant and bar both have panoramic views over the course.

West Hove has
its own very popular 18-bay driving range, the only one in Brighton &
Hove, which is open to the public. Tuition from PGA qualified staff is
available for individuals or groups every day.
In 2006 West Hove was proud to be the first Club in
Sussex, and only the second in the country, to be awarded the prestigious
GolfMark Award. This is a
national scheme that identifies and recognises both junior and
beginner-friendly golf facilities.
Golfers of all ages and abilities are most welcome at
this friendly Club and the Management, Club Professional and Members all
look forward to your visit.
The
Club provides for those with disabilities, having easy access to our
first-floor restaurant and bar where shower and toilet facilities are also
provided.
Please feel free to contact us to discuss any particular needs.
