Colchester has quickly become one of Essex’s padel hotspots, which is great news — but it also means that our popular courts can sometimes be fully booked when you want to play. Luckily, there’s a convenient alternative just a short drive away.
PDL Padel United has installed two pop-up courts at the Delta Hotel Colchester in Marks Tey, giving local players another great option without having to travel into the city centre.
Pop-Up Padel Courts – What to Expect
Please note: These are pop-up courts, so they do not have glass walls and instead use string perspex.
Location Delta Hotel Colchester, London Rd, Marks Tey, CO6 1DU
(roughly 6–7 miles / 8–10 minutes’ drive from central Colchester).
