Cardiff Lawn Tennis Club

Trusted for 10 years

Cardiff Lawn Tennis Club (often referred to as The Castle Club) was founded in 1888 and was originally known as “The Racquet Club”. It was originally situated in Westgate Street at what is now the Welsh Rugby Union souvenir shop. The tennis club moved to its present location in the grounds of Cardiff Castle in 1923, and in 1947 when the Marquis of Bute handed over the Castle, Bute Park and other sections of land to the citizens of Cardiff, he ensured the preservation of the tennis club by granting it a 999 year lease.With a recently refurbished and modernised clubhouse, 11 floodlit courts, its picturesque yet central location and extensive car parking, it is easy to see why Cardiff Lawn Tennis Club is regarded as the finest tennis club in Wales and beyond.
