(For the full list of tennis clubs we’ve given views on the coffee see here.)

Almost enough to get us to move half-way across the country: great sports facilities, good food and coffee, good viewing

(This is written in August 2020 based on two experiences in 2019. No reason to think it has changed)

Coffee: Decent along with all the rest of the full catering service

Food: full blown sports club menu, with large portions and healthy options

Viewing: Good viewing of the six indoor courts. Easy to view the outdoor courts from the side, with cover if it rains but not from the chill wind

Space: Large club space with TVs, newspapers etc — didn’t feel crowded, though the best seats near the indoor courts should be grabbed early!

Facilities: Power plugs. No obvious tennis shop. Not sure about the wifi

Parking: Large dedicated car park.

Courts: 6 acrylic indoors; 4+ tarmac outdoors

Further afield: Shopping, restaurants, petrol a few km away. All out of town

Overnight accommodation: No experience
