A vegan entrepreneur wants a posh gym to have more padel courts as he's fed up of setting his alarm to try to book one during the morning rush. The club was a regular haunt for Princess Diana in the 1990s and currently has three indoor padel courts, as well as 12 indoor tennis courts. Mr Shovel, who had competed in national ranking tournaments and was once placed just outside the top 100, said: 'Playing padel is my passion outside of work. 'It will be great to see if management wants to build more padel courts, but [the membership] is quite expensive,' he said. We bought it knowing there was a tennis club, and it is quite nice to hear it in the summer.
