About Us
Welcome to our world of serious fun. We find super cool games room products for people who really know how to enjoy their free time.
So where did it all begin?
Back in 2007, one couple and their dog jumped into the world of serious fun. From pool tables to pinball machines at the market leading prices, Home Leisure Direct soon became the UK’s premier games room retailer, specialising in the world's finest and highest-quality products.
Our three barn-conversion showrooms are based in the beautiful South Gloucestershire countryside, just north of Bristol; and our distribution centre and head offices are nearby in Avonmouth.
With the largest showrooms in Europe, multi-award-winning customer service, free delivery, and finance options on many products, making your dream purchase a reality couldn’t be easier at Home Leisure Direct. Plus, many of our products are exclusive to Home Leisure Direct, and our specialist product installation team makes setting up your games room a breeze.

Expert Advice and After Care
Picking out your perfect product should never be confusing or stressful. Not only do we have an expert team to walk you through all the need-to-knows when buying, but our Buying Advice guide videos are also packed full of information explaining the different options available as well as showing the products straight from our showrooms. There is plenty to read on our website, free live-chat or over-phone sales support, or why not pop into our showrooms to test out our products with a game yourself.
If you feel unsure which games would fit best in your home, then fear no more, our Games Room Planner will give you the answers you are looking for. Found on our website, it’s free, interactive, and easy to use. Build a picture of what your games room could look like and see how many games room products you can pack in.
Our delivery and installation team are world-class and will ensure your purchase is looking top-notch before leaving you to crack on with a game. We make sure all products play as they should, and offer after-sales support, advice, and repairs. Our team are the best in the business, they are true experts and love what they do - after all, what can be better than a game of pool or table tennis as homework!

Amazing Products
We have travelled the globe to source the very best products on the market from the worlds best manufacturers. Many of the very best brands are available exclusively from Home Leisure Direct, choosing to work with us alone due to our exceptional service, showrooms, and feature-rich website.
Our acid test for any product is to ask ourselves “would we be proud to own that product ourselves and have it in our home?” If we can’t answer yes we simply won’t sell it. So you can be assured that every item we sell has passed this most stringent of tests.
Competitive Socialising
We are the masters of competitive socialising - which you can read all about on our dedicated competitive socialising page.
The Competitive Socialising market has seen huge growth, and it's no surprise why. This concept brings together friends and work colleagues to play fun games against other teams while boosting venue revenues, making this one of the fastest and most exciting trends in the hospitality sector. Whilst going head-to-head to become champions, customers are offered a variety of cocktails, import beers, and specialist food.
Home Leisure Direct supply a range of market-leading products for Competitive Socialising events following UK pub tradition with Pool and Darts but also taking influences from the USA with Shuffleboard and Skeeball. Many of our games use contactless technology, making Home Leisure Direct innovative leaders in the market.
Keep an eye out for our plans for 2021.
I hope this short introduction to our company gives you an insight into a little of our history and the pride we have in our business. We look forward to being able to provide you with some wonderful products and our hallmark exceptional service.
Have Serious Fun,
