Teeing up for a good time
Friday 24th April, 2026

Whether you fancy yourself as Rory McIlroy or are a bit clueless with a club, there’s a warm welcome for you at VS Golf on Heron Industrial Park.
Here you’ll find virtual reality golf for all levels and ages. Test and hone your swing using state-of-the-art TrackMan simulators, hitting a real ball against a custom-made screen and receiving instant shot analysis and data, from ball speed to launch angle.
There’s a staggering choice of 540 different courses, many famous worldwide – perfect for getting the practice in before you visit in person. Each bay can accommodate up to four players for a competitive experience.
“You don’t have to be a good golfer to come here,” says Joe Martin, co-owner with Lee Denton. “But if you are, you’ll have a different experience. You can’t get better than the TrackMan – it's head and shoulders above anything else – and you can bring your own clubs.”
If you’re looking to improve, check in with Jamie Crocker of JC Golf Academy in Hayle, who will teach a day a week in Newham. That said, you don’t have to be an expert or even a member. “You can even play crazy golf,” laughs Joe.
Costs start at £20/hour per player, but decrease with more players. Opening hours are extensive – Monday to Saturday, 9am to 11pm, Sunday 10am to 9pm – allowing for flexibility. “People will often turn up at 9pm and play till 11pm – it's when they're available after putting the kids to bed,” says Joe.
Fridays, meanwhile, are popular with couples. Kids’ parties are welcome, and deposits are already being taken for staff Christmas outings.
Not a golfer? Chances are there’s something here for you. Classic pub fun meets modern tech with interactive darts; there’s also a pool table, and large screens offering sports coverage from Sky Sports and TNT.
Alternatively, head upstairs for the chillout area with squishy sofas and big screens. In good weather, there’s capacity outside for 48 people, and a screen wall comes up to bring the outside in.
An 85” outdoor screen is due to arrive in time for the World Cup in June – perfect enjoyed with a pint from the fully-stocked bar and something from the extensive food menu – including sourdough pizza, available throughout the weekend from Friday afternoon onwards. There’s plenty of parking, too.
