Saffron Walden Conservative Club is fast establishing itself as a popular social venue for the people of the town. The Club boasts members of all ages who enjoy the benefits of a large friendly bar area offering competitively priced drinks in a relaxed environment. Freshly prepared bar food is also available during the lunchtime opening hours of 1200 noon until 2pm and evenings from 7pm until 9.30pm.

The club is open until midnight Monday to Saturday and is conveniently situated in the heart of the historic town. The town is in the Essex District of Uttlesford, described by The Sunday Times in 2002 as being "The Most Desirable Place to Live in England."

Access to the town is very easy, by car via the M11 or by rail to Audley End Railway Station which is just over 2 miles from town but has a reliable taxi service to meet incoming trains. Stansted airport is less than 30 minutes drive from the town.

The City of Cambridge is only 25 minutes away via the A11 with Newmarket approximately the same. The Club is located about 100 metres from the Market Square, which provides convenient parking in the evenings and on Sundays.

The Club is located in a very impressive Georgian building with a large, enclosed walled garden with a well laid out lawn and flower beds. There are two bar areas, the Lounge Bar where hot meals are served, the Sunday Roast has become a popular attraction at The Club and members are advised to book in advance.

The Saloon Bar has a television set, mainly for sporting events and a gaming machine offering a £250 jackpot prize. The Saloon Bar has access to the walled garden and patio area, which are very popular during the summer months and are the venue for barbecues and occasional live music events.

The recently rejuvenated and air-conditioned Club function room, with its newly constructed self-contained bar, is known as The Garden Room and is the venue for most Club entertainment. It is also the meeting place for organisations, including the local branch of the Royal British Legion, the Bingo Club and on two evenings a week it is used by the Bridge Club.

The Club "Committee Room" is located upstairs and is used by The Lions, Lionesses and The Fishing Club in addition to the Club Committee. The Lionesses meet on the 1st Monday of each month and the Lions meet on the 2nd Monday.

The Club has three Snooker teams who play in the Saffron Walden & District Snooker League. Matches are played on Tuesday evenings but the match-size table and Pool table are available for members to use during Club opening hours. The Club also has teams in a local Darts and Pool League. Since 2006 the Club has also participated in the Ladies Darts League.

On the edge of the town is Audley End House owned by Lord Braybrooke and managed by English Heritage. The House is a very popular tourist attraction and in addition to historical re-enactments and gardeners' weekends, holds very popular open air music events in the grounds during summer weekends. The Prince of Wales has taken a keen interest in the organic garden in the grounds of the House. (See "Places to Visit" page)
