On the outskirts of the city, at Salle Moor Hall Farm, Norfolk will receive a new padel court. The farm’s continuous attempts to expand its amenities and draw in more guests include this exciting development.
In the UK, padel, a sport that blends aspects of tennis and squash, has been rapidly gaining popularity. The newest addition to Salle Moor Hall Farm’s current amenities, which include a coffee shop, brewery, bridal boutique, and glamping, will be the new court.
The 132-acre privately owned farm has already had its abandoned cattle stable renovated for three padel courts, a project approved by the Broadland District Council in September 2023. The building of an extra court was made possible by the recent approval of an application to turn some nearby agricultural property into recreational space.
Padel is “big in Spain and making its way across Europe,” according to Antony Moore, the farm’s marketing and asset manager, who expressed excitement about the initiative. There are currently around 500 padel courts in the United Kingdom, according to the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA), and it is hoped that the sport will be added to the Olympic program by 2032.
In order to accommodate local residents, the new court will be open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with limits on Sundays and public holidays. Salle Moor Hall Farm is anticipated to become a well-liked tourist and local destination as a result of this construction, adding to the area’s expanding standing as a center for leisure pursuits.
Given the growing popularity of the sport and the farm’s dedication to delivering top-notch facilities, sports fans are sure to love the new padel court. This court is a welcome addition to the Norfolk community, regardless of your level of experience or desire to try something new.
