Padel Courts in Surrey: The Complete Guide

Surrey was always going to be ground zero for padel's UK takeover. The county is a near-perfect petri dish for the sport: an affluent, tennis-literate commuter belt population, enough disposable income to absorb premium court fees without blinking, and a long-standing appetite for any racket sport that doubles as a social occasion. The only thing missing was the courts — and that's changing fast. With a clutch of established clubs already running floodlit courts across Elmbridge, Mole Valley and beyond, and PadelStars' 10-court Guildford flagship about to become the single largest padel investment in the South East outside London, Surrey's padel boom is no longer a story about potential. It's a story about infrastructure finally catching up with demand.

Surrey's Padel Scene at a Glance

Surrey's padel network spans the full spectrum — from village sports clubs in Oxshott to ultra-exclusive lawn tennis establishments in Weybridge and a resort hotel in 400 acres of countryside. Most venues are members-only or membership-preferred, reflecting the county's private club culture. Public access (via Playtomic or ClubSpark) is available at several sites, but expect to pay a premium if you're a non-member. The court stock is still modest by London standards, but the pipeline is strong.

Key Venues

PadelStars Guildford — Surrey Sports Park

Surrey Sports Park, Richard Meyjes Road, Guildford GU2 7AD
Mon–Fri 7am–10pm | Sat–Sun 7am–6pm

This is the headline act — and it's only just getting started. Four courts opened on 19 December 2025, giving the Guildford area its first dedicated padel courts and giving PadelStars an early foothold while their main complex takes shape. The full 10-court indoor centre, developed in partnership with the University of Surrey, is on course to open in 2026 and will be the largest padel facility in the UK higher education sector by some distance. PadelStars CEO Andy Knee has called Guildford the "crown jewel" of the brand — and with a show court designed for elite competition, a full clubhouse, café, bar and retail operation planned, it's hard to argue.

For now the four live courts are already drawing strong bookings from students, SSP members and the wider Guildford community who've had nowhere local to play. Access is open and the university partnership keeps pricing more accessible than the county's private clubs. When the full facility lands, this will be the defining padel venue for the entire South East.

EzeePadel Weybridge

Bannatyne Spa Weybridge, Grenside Road (off Walton Lane), Weybridge KT13 8QA
Mon–Sun 7am–10pm | Book via Playtomic

Weybridge has history here: this site hosted the first padel court in Surrey in 2015, making it the seventh padel club in the UK. EzeePadel took over in September 2023, expanded to four courts (three of them panoramic with countryside views), and opened it up properly via Playtomic — no membership required, just book and show up. Pricing swings wide (£20–£78/hour depending on time slot and day), so off-peak is excellent value. The Bannatyne spa setting means changing rooms and café are sorted. If you're in the north Surrey commuter belt and want hassle-free access without joining a club, this is your go-to.

Foxhills Club & Resort

Stonehill Road, Ottershaw, Surrey KT16 0EL

Three floodlit padel courts set within a 400-acre country resort featuring two championship golf courses, a 66-bedroom hotel, and five swimming pools. Padel launched here in January 2024 and is available to Country Club and Full Members as well as hotel residents — which makes it one of the few venues in Surrey where you can play padel and then check in for the night. The racquet offering (tennis, padel, pickleball, table tennis) is comprehensive, and the coaching programme runs across all levels. This is the luxury end of the Surrey padel market, and it makes no apologies for it. Court hire equipment is £5 per package — genuinely sharp for a resort of this calibre.

Surbiton Racket & Fitness Club

Berrylands, Surbiton KT5 8JT
Mon–Fri 6:30am–11pm | Sat 8am–10pm | Sun 8am–9pm

Five padel courts — one of the larger court stocks among Surrey's established clubs — installed in 2021 at one of the county's most complete multi-sport venues. Surbiton sits right on the south-west London border, making it part of the sprawling padel corridor that runs through Kingston, New Malden and out into the Surrey stockbroker belt. The club has around 1,500 members across tennis, squash, gym and running; padel is a natural fit for the demographic. Booking runs through MyCourts (membership required), and coaching, taster sessions and social mix-ins are all on offer. Bar, café and licensed premises round it out as a proper evening destination.

Esher Tennis & Padel

Esher, Surrey (off A3)

Founded in 1898 and still going strong, Esher is a classic Surrey tennis club that moved decisively into padel when two floodlit all-weather courts opened in May 2021. The model here is membership-led: court fees are bundled into your subscription with no extra charge, making the real cost of play very competitive once you're a member. An LTA-supported coaching centre, with nine tennis courts, a strong junior programme and regular league competition, Esher represents the Surrey grassroots padel scene at its most functional — well-run, community-focused, unpretentious.

St George's Hill Lawn Tennis Club

Weybridge, Surrey

One of the most prestigious private sports clubs in the UK, dating to 1913 and set within the walled St George's Hill estate. Planning permission for three semi-enclosed padel courts was granted by Elmbridge Borough Council in July 2024 — not without controversy; neighbours petitioned loudly about noise, and the vote passed eight to five. The courts join a new gym and groundskeeper's building as part of a wider investment in the estate. With annual membership fees in the region of £1,700+, this is padel for the top tier of Surrey's wealthy. It's a telling signal about the sport's status: if St George's Hill is building padel courts, padel has genuinely arrived at the premium end of the market.

The Limpsfield Club

Detillens Lane, Limpsfield, Oxted RH8 0DH
Mon–Fri 7am–11pm | Sat–Sun 7am–9:30pm

Two Italian Padel courts with World Padel Tour surface (the blue Mondo Supercourt XN textured carpet) at a 125-year-old racquet club in east Surrey. Launched in June 2021, the courts run daily until 9:30pm. The Limpsfield Club enters men's, ladies' and mixed teams in the iPadel league, and coaching comes from one of the UK's top padel coaches alongside the house pro. This is a genuine padel-serious club rather than an afterthought — the Italian Padel court specification alone signals investment rather than a quick install. Well worth the trip if you're in the Oxted or Tandridge area.

Oxshott Padel Club

Oxshott Village Sports Club, Steel's Lane, Oxshott KT22 0RF

The textbook Surrey padel story: affluent village, well-established multi-sport club, overwhelming demand from day one. Oxshott Village Sports Club has been playing cricket since 1896; padel arrived in August 2021 and immediately generated a waiting list for membership. Two courts, floodlit, with adult club nights on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, organised mix-ins on Fridays and Saturdays, and coaching at multiple levels throughout the week. Booking is through MyCourts. Oxshott doesn't need to market itself hard — in a village of this demographic profile, word of mouth does the job.

Hazlemere Tennis & Padel Club

Recreation Ground, Amersham Road, Hazlemere, High Wycombe HP15 7QW
Mon–Sun 8am–9:30pm | Book via ClubSpark

Technically Buckinghamshire, but firmly in the same South East commuter belt orbit. Two floodlit courts opened in June 2025, with an unusually open booking policy: members and non-members alike can book via ClubSpark, with rackets and balls provided at the courts. Non-member rate is £30/hour — competitive for the region. The club runs a Hazlemere Padel League (free to enter), beginner and improver coaching blocks, and junior sessions. If you're commuter-belt Surrey-adjacent and can't face the wait for a membership at one of the premium clubs, Hazlemere is an honest, no-fuss option.

Booking Tips

Go early or go off-peak. Prime time (evenings from 6–9pm and weekend mornings) books out fast at every club in Surrey. If you can play mid-morning on a weekday, you'll get cheaper rates and far more availability.

Playtomic vs ClubSpark. EzeePadel Weybridge uses Playtomic; most LTA-affiliated clubs (Hazlemere, Esher) use ClubSpark. Both apps are worth downloading before your trip. PadelStars Guildford uses its own booking system via Surrey Sports Park.

Non-member access is limited. The majority of Surrey's padel courts sit inside private members' clubs. EzeePadel Weybridge and Hazlemere are the standout exceptions for pay-and-play. If you want regular access elsewhere, membership is effectively required.

Racket hire is widely available. Most Surrey venues offer hire packages (typically £5–£10). Don't buy a racket before you've played a few times — the sport is social enough that you'll get lent equipment by other players anyway.

Book group lessons for faster progress. Surrey clubs run well-organised beginners' programmes. A four-week group coaching block is consistently the fastest way into the local scene and the best way to get onto the WhatsApp groups where games actually get arranged.

Upcoming Venues & What's Next

The biggest near-term story is PadelStars Guildford's full-site opening in 2026. Ten indoor courts, a show court for elite competition, and a clubhouse operation that will make it a destination rather than just a facility — this will reset expectations for what a padel venue in Surrey can look like. PadelStars will have 34 courts across ten sites once Guildford is complete; the Guildford site alone accounts for a significant chunk of that.

Beyond PadelStars, the St George's Hill courts are in their early playing days following planning approval in 2024. Expect more private clubs across Elmbridge, Mole Valley and the Wey Valley to follow the same pattern — tennis clubs adding padel courts, resort hotels monetising their land, and village sports clubs responding to member demand. The LTA's count of over 700 padel courts nationwide is growing fast; Surrey's share is set to increase substantially over the next 24 months.
