Our best country houses with tennis courts
Nothing spells the start of summer quite like Wimbledon, and what could be nicer than your own private tennis court for a knock about with family and friends? Even better if the property also has a swimming pool for cooling down afterwards. These are some of the finest options on the market for would-be players – some also have an outdoor pool.

£2.25 million
This Victorian former vicarage has six bedrooms and comes with stables, a tennis court, and a swimming pool, all in around 3.22 acres of gardens and paddocks. If you tire of the outdoor sporting options, of if the British weather is unkind (as if), there is also a cinema room in the main house. The swimming pool is heated by an air source heat pump, and has a rigid, retractable cover and a rolled thermal cover which helps to minimise heating costs. The nearby hard surface tennis court is modern and maintained to a high standard.
