Located overlooking the beautiful St.Ives Bay, our club surely has one of the most beautiful settings in the UK and was voted one of the twenty best clubs in the UK by ACE Magazine.
Courts are available for public hire from the Porthminster Hotel between 9.00am and 4.00pm, Monday to Friday.
Other times are for members only but subscription fees are very reasonable and we welcome new members.
We play team tennis in the local leagues during the summer, and there is also a winter league.
Members meet for social tennis on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. If you are thinking of joining the club why not come down and meet some of us for a chat.
Wednesday 18.00 - 21.30 hrs during the summer.
Sunday 09.30 - 12.30 all year round.

Ladies team news
Having been promoted at the end of 2007, the challenge of staying in a higher league proved a little too much for our ladies.
We look forward to mounting a promotion campaign once again next season fuelled by Jane's cakes and lot's of tea!
Men's Team news
After gaining promotion into the top division last season, the A team were unfortunately not able to sustain the run of form and were relegated from the premier division back to division 1.
Next year will be a challenge with some potential personnel changes but the good news is that Bill has agreed to be skipper. We are sure that he'll get the best out of the team and we will be fighting for promotion back to the premier division.
After trying to run a B and C team last year, we are reverting to plan A and running just the B's this year. If you wish to represent the club, contact Bill or another member of the team for information.
