Have a Question?

Do you supply hotels and venues?

Yes. We supply hotels, members' clubs, pubs, wedding venues and holiday properties across the UK, from a single croquet set for the lawn to a full games library for every space. Speak to our team and we will put a recommendation together for your property.

Which games suit which space?

Croquet and giant games earn their keep on lawns and terraces. Chess, backgammon and dominoes belong in libraries, bars and lounges. Compact travel games work beautifully in guest suites. Tell us about your spaces and we will suggest a set list.

How durable are the games with heavy guest use?

Jaques games are solid wood and built for generations of play, which is precisely what a busy season demands. We recommend garden games come in overnight, and spares and accessories are available for our croquet sets so a lost ball never retires the lawn.

Can you handle volume orders and lead times?

Yes. Standard orders placed before 1pm Monday to Friday are processed the same day. For larger or recurring orders our team will confirm stock and lead times up front, and plan deliveries around your opening dates.

Are the games safe for families and children?

All of our products, including materials and paints, are EC and UKCA safety tested by an independent testing house, so every generation of your guests can play.

Why Jaques?

We are the world's oldest games company, founded in London in 1795. We designed the original Staunton chess set and first made croquet in 1851. A Jaques set on your lawn or in your library is part of that story, and your guests can feel it.
