Heritage tenpin bowling centre operating since 1961 with 8 original lanes, manual scoring, above-ground ball returns, and bumpers for young players. TreeTops viewing deck for parties. Glow-in-the-dark lighting available.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families seeking a genuine retro experience that the whole group will remember. Mark's hands-on hosting transforms a standard bowling visit into something personal - he'll pull you out of gutter situations literally and figuratively. Children aged 6 and up handle the lanes well with bumpers.

“We held an evening bowling party here for my son's 16th birthday. All the staff we encountered were so helpful, friendly and accommodating and made organising the party easy. Thank you so much to you all for helping us to make his celebration so enjoyable!”

“Came here for a casual bowl, Mark who was running the show showed us the disco lights and let us connect to the music. The vibe of the place is amazing, and the staff fantastic to boot!! Come here and support local - I will be”

“My 9 year old suggested 10 pin bowling yesterday, and on a whim we booked this charming place. Kids and adults had so much fun! The bowling alley is old-school retro in the very best way. The owner was so friendly, talked to us about the history of the place and gave us bowling tips! Everything was immaculately clean and well-maintained. We can't wait to go back!”
