About TownFarm Padel
TownFarm Padel sits at TownFarm on Old St Hill, Bishop’s Stortford, opened 2024 with three outdoor panoramic courts serving the Hertfordshire and Essex border catchment.
Free parking on site, floodlit evening play, and the rural setting puts it inside reach for players from Bishop’s Stortford, Sawbridgeworth and Stansted who otherwise would drive into north London. Pay-and-play through Playtomic alongside member-friendly access.

Programme and social
The rural farm setting brings a different vibe to the urban competition: quieter weekend pace, broader sightlines and a community-feel atmosphere.

Bishop’s Stortford, Sawbridgeworth, Stansted and the wider Hertfordshire-Essex border who want outdoor padel on a rural site without driving into north London, plus visitors playing during layovers via Stansted. Less suited to anyone reliant on public transport into central London.
