Potters 5 Lakes trip

Our eclectic group of club members and friends/partners have just returned from a fun four-night break at Potters in Essex. Two hours of tennis (or pickle ball) every morning followed by coffee in the sunshine, then a lazy lunch with the odd glass of rosé to wind down before the next round of exertions.......a putting competition, swimming, rowing, dance classes, a game of bridge, table tennis or even more tennis for those still standing.
5:30 pm would signal an early-evening call to gather in the sunny lake-view bar for a few (all-inclusive) g&ts, proseccos, or pints of Stella. On to dinner with more free-flowing wine and digestifs, then coffee in the garden bar followed by a few steps over to the huge games area for some post-prandial shuffleboard, cornhole, pool, snooker, curling, chipping, darts or a(nother) game of t/t.  And if you were not completely exhausted, the nightly show at 9:30pm was a polished profusion of singing and dancing.

The Essex coast and surrounding countryside is great for short trips out or cycling if you're not into tennis. Or there are pleasant communal lounges on-site if you just want to relax and read your book. All in all, a great few days away with lots of laughs and banter......😉
