Welcome to the old Westmorland Croquet Club website. This year 2021 we were up and running from the end of March. The 2021 season ends on 3rd October to give time for work on lawns following the unusually dry summer.

The club is fortunate in being able to play on lawns within the world-famous gardens of Levens Hall with their amazing topiaries and rich borders.

The lawns are open from the start of April to mid October between 10 am and 6 pm from Sunday to Thursday. There are two full-sized lawns and one half-lawn, although the arrangement can be modified to suit requirements. In addition to our own in house tournaments and competitions which take place throughput the season, we also participate in the North West Federation of Croquet Clubs handicap AC, handicap GC and short lawn leagues and the Cumbrian Tankard, a regional competition for the four Cumbrian croquet teams.

If you are interested in playing croquet, you would be most welcome to join the Club (click here for a membership registration form) or just come along and get better acquainted with the game. Please remember, however, that the Hall and Gardens are privately owned, so please contact the Club Chairman or Secretary in the first instance (for details, see Club Contacts page). Better still, why not visit the Hall and make yourself known to a club member whilst roaming the superb gardens.
