Everyone knows football can be fun and golf can be great, so how wonderful would it be to play a sport that combines the best of both of them? Well, you can find out for yourself at the excellent Brighton Footgolf. Located close to the main A27 to the north-west of the city, it’s the perfect spot for some pleasant, yet competitive, sporting action with friends and family members. There are even organised league matches for those who want to take their talents on to a higher level.

You and your party can choose between nine and eighteen holes, and as is the case with golf the player with the lowest score will end up victorious. The basis of the game is simple; instead of using clubs, you kick the football towards an oversized hole. And if you’re looking to mark a special occasion, sign up one of their party packages to create a truly unforgettable day out for everyone.

And when your game comes to an end, you’ll want to settle back and unwind with some well-earned refreshments. All you have to do is head to the excellent Benfield Barn Café, a picturesque 18^th century eatery that offers a lovely selection of food and drink options. It’s perfect for that all-important chat about what went right and what went wrong during your round.
