Somewhere with a pool table
Options

Posts: 3,826 Forumite
I have tried googling this without success as it seems there are lots of places out there with swimming pools and tables, but if there are any with pool tables, they are hidden amongst the rest!
I fancy staying somewhere, hotel, holiday cottage, open to any suggestions with a pool table for an anniversay. It could be overnight or a week and it could be anywhere in the UK as I'm just thinking about it at present and could work it in to other holiday plans.
Can anyone think of anything that might be suitable? It's because of a joke doing the rounds for Valentine's Day about booking a table but the missus won't like it as she's rubbish at snooker. (A snooker or pool table will be fine.)
I'd really appreciate some help!

We have stayed at Templand Cottages down in the Dumfries area a couple of times, it's a converted steading layout that has a few holiday cottages, some with log fires ( FOC, the best MSE price!) and it has a swimming pool and a games building with 2 pool tables and a rack of bikes of all shapes and sizes that are free to borrow at your leisure. they have a video and book library too - free again, if you're halfway through a book at the end of your stay you can take it with you if you leave one you've read behind. Places are spotless, nicely stocked with tea/sugar/herbs etc to get you started.
Beautiful drive to get there too ( well it is from here:p)
I think it's https://www.templandcottages.co.uk
just had a look at the site, it looks like they've done up the games room and taken away one of the pool table to make room for sofas... there's a new trampoline too, added to the kids play area by the looks of it.
every house has it's own BBQ too, just in case this is for warmer weather time of year ( those three days in June when summer arrives? lol)Member of the first Mortgage Free in 3 challenge, no.19

Probably better off looking for games room rather than pool table.0

I was thinking of somewhere that had a pool table only we could use, or at least that we could book sole use of.
(I appreciate it's a very strange idea.)0 -

I want to book a place. It is based on a joke about booking a pool table. My OH will like it. (I'm female, by the way.)
I'm completely vague about where, it doesn't matter where. When will be July.0 -

Thanks for that. I like the look of the one in Northumberland. Anyone actually stayed in one?
More suggestions for ones that you haven't stayed in are welcome, too.0
