We have a home, a new home a bricks n mortar home

The roots of the Hobbits Hole Roleplaying club stretch all the way back to 1999 and has met at a number of venues across South East London before finally settling on our current home in Bromley.

We now have a new home!

From July when hopefully the world all opens up properly we will be back in venue kicking off a new rotation of games.

Our Address Glanville Road Scout Hall, 8-10 Glanville Road, Bromley, BR2 9LW

We will meet in person there every Wednesday from 7pm to 11pm.

Heating is very clever and warms up the hall within 15 minutes. Kitchen has a fridge and microwave that we are able to use if we want. Two toilets. (One with extra access).

We meet every week from 7pm-10:30pm for games and clear down by 11pm for tabletop gaming

Hobbits Hole Roleplaying Club has a great mix of experienced GMs and enthusiastic players which makes for a great atmosphere.

We always try to keep an empty chair at each gaming table so if anyone wants to come to the club for a visit they are welcome to join in for the evening.

We likely don't set up a big map and start counting off squares when the characters explore an ancient ruin (although we can!). We don't have visual queues when we're describing how a thief narrowly avoids a poisoned pin while attempting to disarm

Looking for online RPG groups for beginners? Or perhaps you are a veteran player in need of another in-person campaign? Finding a tabletop RPG group near you can be a challenge, but fear not this little ditty should help you find the right RPG group for you. Time and location are the two biggest problems for RPG players looking for a RPG group. How to Find a RPG Group Offline There’s no experience quite like playing RPG in the physical presence of your fellow players. Most beginner and experienced RPG players alike prefer to play offline RPG. It is not as easy to find a group, but it is 100% possible. The Starter’s Set The official D&D Starter Set might be the best way to play D&D for the first time. It includes a set of dice, premade characters, a basic rulebook, and a game that takes players from Level 1 to Level 5.
