About Fr Padel
Fr Padel sits in Unit 2 Parker Street, Ashton-on-Ribble, on the western side of Preston. The venue runs three indoor padel courts inside an industrial unit, with floodlighting through to late evening and extended hours from early morning through to 01:00.
The setup works well for the dedicated padel-only model: ample parking, no fuss, and a focused court-time experience without the broader leisure facilities found at multi-sport sites. Bookings are seamless through Playtomic, and racket hire keeps the barrier to entry low for first-time visitors.
The courts
Three indoor padel courts on professional-standard playing surface with high-performance floodlighting. The industrial unit setting means good ceiling height and the indoor build keeps weather out of the equation year-round.
The three-court size sits between Preston’s smaller two-court venues and the larger five and seven-court builds elsewhere in Lancashire, which gives Fr Padel a useful mid-tier slot in the local market.
Booking and access
Court hire is via Playtomic, with prices typically £30 to £46 per hour depending on time slot. Peak times (evenings and weekends) sit at the higher end of the range; off-peak weekday mornings and afternoons are better value. The venue is at Unit 2 Parker Street in Ashton-on-Ribble, with free on-site parking and disabled access.
Equipment rental is available, plus a small store for last-minute kit and vending machines for refills between sessions.
Programme and social
Fr Padel does not currently publish a structured coaching programme on the public booking platforms. Match play and social bookings sit at the centre of the offer, and the venue’s Instagram account (@frpadelpreston) is the main channel for news on events and matches. For coaching enquiries, message the venue direct via Instagram or Playtomic.
WiFi runs through the building, and the layout is geared towards regular padel-only play rather than longer leisure visits.
Best for
Players in west Preston wanting a straightforward indoor padel venue with extended hours and competitive pricing. Less suited to anyone looking for cafe culture, full coaching programmes or larger event space, since Fr Padel is built around dedicated court time rather than broader club facilities.
