This is a club, which means that the bar may be only open to members.

This very welcoming, community orientated and cosmopolitan tennis and bowling club, set in its own grounds oozes character from the Victorian club house overlooking the bowling green to its tree-lined surroundings. There are two rooms, the main bar area with a small library and a television area and the members’ lounge with its two full sized snooker tables, which also has a hatch to the bar. Upstairs is a table tennis room. They run a beer festival in early June (which they have done so since 2009), together with community events throughout the summer. Guests are welcome as long as signed in. NB the Bar is often booked out to private parties but the members’ lounge is still available with its own access to the bar. Also note, opening times listed may be extended in the summer.

Historic Interest

First established in 1874 as a gentlemen’s club.
