Bowling first at Martlesham Heath
Martlesham Heath, just outside Ipswich, is where this 20-lane Tenpin sits on Gloster Road; the operator mentions Kesgrave, Woodbridge and Rushmere St Andrew as nearby. It is a pared-back centre: table tennis, pool tables and arcade machines are the only extras, and the page lists neither karaoke nor laser tag.
Parties are a two-hour package with bowling, pizza served on the lanes and unlimited squash at £13.99 per person. The centre opens at 10:00 daily and closes at 23:00 on Sunday to Thursday nights, an hour later on Friday and Saturday. Online games start at £8.10. This season's festive hours are already on the page: closed on Christmas Day, 12:00 to midnight on Boxing Day and New Year's Day, and open until 01:00 on New Year's Eve.
Getting to Martlesham Heath
