Prested Real Tennis Club

Located within the grounds of Prested Hall near Feering and Colchester, Prested Real Tennis Club is one of the few venues globally to house two dedicated real tennis courts under one roof. Operating alongside the estate's health club, the facility caters to traditionalists and newcomers drawn to the asymmetrical, tactical predecessor of modern lawn tennis. The courts feature true-bounce floors, precise wall angles, and viewing galleries that keep spectators close to the action. Members participate in internal handicap leagues, national fixtures, and social doubles evenings. Court sessions are booked directly through the club office or online booking portal, with court markers and coaching available to guide players through the intricate rules and service variations. The atmosphere balances competitive drive with clubhouse hospitality, providing an active social hub for racquet sport enthusiasts across Essex.
