Play The Fastest Growing Sport In The UK

Book the Court

Padel is a dynamic mix of tennis and squash, played in doubles on an enclosed court about a third the size of a tennis court. The game is easy to pick up, fast-paced, and incredibly fun — no experience required!

Why Everyone Loves Padel:

  • Easier to learn than tennis
  • Usually played in doubles – social & fun
  • Great cardio workout without being high-impact
  • All-weather indoor court

Introducing Wold Padel

Wold Padel is part of the leisure and accomodation site Wold Escapes, owned by JSR Farms. The original farmsted was converted in 2010, and the Yorkshire Wolds Cookery School was born. It is now home to nine luxury glamping cabins, a B&B and farmhouse hire for large groups.

The barn had been sat unused for a number of years and with padel becoming so popular we decided to make use of the space and get active!

Open to the public and to guests, learn to play and understand why its the UK's fastest growing sport.
