This property has an on-site paddle court which can be booked at an additional cost. What is Padel? Padel is a fast, social racket sport that combines elements of tennis and squash. It’s usually played as doubles, making it easy to pick up and great fun with friends, family or colleagues. You don’t need to be an experienced racket-sport player to enjoy it — beginners can get involved quickly, while more experienced players still have plenty to master. It’s active, competitive, sociable and seriously addictive. The Court A padel court is 20m x 10m and surrounded by glass and mesh walls. Like tennis, the aim is to hit the ball over the net into your opponent’s side of the court. The difference is that the walls are part of the game, so once the ball has bounced, it can be played off the glass — a bit like squash. That’s what makes padel so different, and so much fun. How the Game Works Scoring is similar to tennis, with points played at 15, 30, 40 and game, usually over the best of three sets. Serves are underarm and must bounce before being hit. During a rally, the ball can bounce once before being returned, and the glass walls can be used to keep the point alive. You win the point when your opponents can’t return the ball legally before it bounces twice.
The Neighborhood:
An attractive market town, Kirkby Lonsdale is situated in the heart of the Lune Valley, midway between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District. The town was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, and holds a 13th century Market Charter. Nowadays, Thursday is market day, a perfect opportunity for visitors to explore the variety of distinctive independent shops in the town, or the many 17th and 18th century buildings which still stand. The town was also a finalist for the High Street of the Year Award in 2016.
