Lawn Bowls: What to Look For

For barefoot bowls by the water, Valentine is the Lake Macquarie suburb to look at. Valentine Bowling Club sits on the lake's shore with a canal on its other side, so its greens and outdoor areas take in water views in more than one direction.

How a bowls afternoon there stacks up for a group:

  • Two greens: both synthetic surfaces
  • All in one place: green, bistro, bar and function rooms on a single site
  • Weather back-up: an air-conditioned clubhouse
  • Celebrations covered: birthdays, engagements, weddings and corporate events
  • Transport: a courtesy bus Wednesday to Sunday and on-site parking

It is an easy one to combine – bowls in the afternoon, then dinner at Jessie's on the Water without leaving the club.

Planning a Lake Macquarie bowls function

  • Start with the booklet: the functions team sends packages on request
  • Choose a room: upstairs (about 226 square metres, balcony over the lake) or one of two foreshore spaces for corporate groups
  • Set the format: seated meal or cocktail-style party once the bowls wrap up
  • Check the calendar: trivia nights, raffles and club bowls days run each week

A long-standing lakeside club

  • Since 1963: started with one green and a small clubhouse, adding a second green two years later
  • Today: bar, gaming room, bistro and function centre
  • Daily hours: open from 10am, closing between 9pm and 10.30pm depending on the night
  • Food service: lunch and dinner seven days at Jessie's on the Water

Lawn Bowls FAQs

Where can we play barefoot bowls on Lake Macquarie?

Valentine Bowling Club, 17A Valentine Crescent, Valentine, takes barefoot bowls functions on two synthetic greens beside the lake.

Is barefoot bowls good for a work function?

The club takes corporate events and offers two event spaces on the foreshore, so a team can bowl and then move to a room.

Can a bowls party include drinks and dinner?

Yes. The bar pours beer, wine, spirits and cocktails, and Jessie's on the Water serves dinner from 5.30pm to 8pm.

Does the club suit an engagement party?

Engagements are among the functions it hosts, and the upstairs room with its lake balcony works for a cocktail-style party.
