Welcome to Cornwall’s Tennis Club of the Year for 2026

Centrally located in the stunning setting of Penlee Park, Penzance Tennis Club is a non-profit club run by enthusiastic volunteers and affiliated to the Lawn Tennis Association. With 4 Tiger Turf artificial grass courts and 3 hard courts, all benefitting from the very latest LED floodlight technology, we think our facilities are amongst the very best in the South West.

Named Cornwall’s ‘Club of the Year’ for 2026 in the Cornwall County Awards, the club prides itself on friendliness and inclusivity, and we warmly welcome everyone.

We run popular social mix-in sessions every week so whatever your standard, competitive tennis is available to all!
