The Hotel has a proud Croquet heritage, with its own club and championship lawns. Our resident coaches are Fergus and Samantha Thompson.
Croquet plays an important role in summer days at the Hotel and we have hosted several international Croquet Championship events. Guests are always welcome to join us on the lawns to experience what this intriguing game of touch and tactics is all about.
Club membership is just £180 per adult and £60 per junior member. A new 5 day membership (Mon-Fri) is also now available for £100 per adult. Non-members can enjoy playing up to four times for green fees of just £10.00 per game, and there are further excellent deals for corporate delegates. Or opt for croquet, canapés and a glass of Pimms with our popular Sundowner package! All equipment is included in the price and tuition is available by arrangement. We also offer our guests free taster sessions: just ask for details at Reception.
