The Tollygunge Club aka tolly club or just tolly in Kolkata is the only Country Club of its kind in India and ranked amongst the top 20 Clubs of the world. It is spread over a hundred acres with a Club House that is over 220 years old. Founded in 1895 as a meeting ground for British Merchants and bankers, the club is one of its kind in India with a unique collection of flora and fauna, some of which are rare enough to be found in a botanical garden. The club further boasts a range of facilities rarely found under a single roof. It offers facilities for golf, tennis, squash, indoor and outdoor swimming, riding and amateur equestrian sports. There is also a well-equipped and extensively used gym with professional instructors. The Club has a bridge room, a billiards room, a pro-shop, a well-stocked library, cyber cafe, unisex salon and herbal ayurvedic centre. Sports apart, the Club offers members and guests a wide range of entertainment the year round from open-air theatre to music and dancing. Excellent cuisine is available at its restaurants, lawns, pavilions and well-stocked bars. There are many more which I haven't explored but will post soon as and when I visit more !
