The location is in Inverness Retail Park, in Eastfield Road, and includes some VIP lanes for private play.

The final fitting-out of the new bowling centre is currently under way in a former Sports Direct Store. The target date for opening is March 29. The project has cost £3.1m.

Next door is a complementary amusement centre, the Innoflate indoor play park, that opened at the end of last year.

Inverness already has one tenpin bowling centre, Rollerbowl at Culduthel.
