    Great facilities, puts Altrincham to shame. BUT BEWARE the parking system is very unclear. Lots of signage saying only for patrons (that's fair) but doesn't say if you don't add your registration at reception you get a £100 fine in the post!! I took my child to the sensory room and cost me £5 plus the parking fine. Really immoral.

    Fantastic gym with every class you can think of. The renovation of the centre has been really successful. I mostly use the dedicated yoga rooms and the well equipped gym space.

    The facilities are good but the car parking is operated by vultures. Be sure to register your car registration inside otherwise it's a £60 fine. I made the mistake of not registering because I was too busy managing my twins. Just park outside the car park that way you can avoid the vultures.

    I never seem to be able to book a slot for a junior pass as every time i go to book it its all booked up, i wanted to go to the gym hoping it will give me a healthier mindset and to just get out and do something but i've been trying to go for weeks and i haven't been able to go

    Seems like a well equipped establishment. I went here on an after work 'training session' this week. The climbing wall was good. Unfortunately, for a large portion of our time here we were shoved into a small room by a staff member who made it clear she had no intention of working with us and left to our own devices with an aerobics video playing in the background. Nothing was said to us, so we waited for her to tell us something, or start an activity, which didn't happen. Seems a shame as I was considering joining this centre but would rather go somewhere more attentive to visitors. And, more to the point, my workplace would have paid for this centre to put on our work training event and have been well and truly ripped off. On the plus side, this experience has taught me to join another leisure centre and not this one.

    Always clean and staffed by friendly people. The gym is missing one or two bits of equipment I'd like to see but it's going to be more than adequate for most people. Glad to see the cafe is open again too!

    The swimming facilities are amazing which the exception of the door system when entering the changing rooms, which was a struggle when with a wheel chair user as it's quite narrow and both doors open into the corridor. The accessible changing room is good and there is a changing spaces room available bit it wasn't radar keyed and you would have to ask a staff member.

    worst web site i have ever used, if you want to book a swimming slot you may have to log in on numerous occasions.

    Love the blast classes - 30 mins of solid work. Sets you up for the day.

    Really impressed with the clip and climb at Move Urmston. Booked online and was easy to see what availability there was (happy to see sessions running in the early evenings as well as weekends). Greeted by the staff at reception, and after a safety video got to spend the next hour having at go at the different courses. Good range of routes - the lightening strike was great fun and the balls incredibly challenging. The instructors were helpful, friendly and attentive (didn't have to wait long to change route unlike in some bigger places). One satisfied 10yo.

    Went today (21st June) at 8pm for lane swim and immediately got eye infection after swim. I am quite sure because I can feel the itchiness of my left eye right after I got out of the venue. Besides, a drop of pool water accidentally went into my left goggle when I was doing one of the laps(got rid of it when I stopped at the edge of pool, it was even just 10 second contact), and the infection started with that eye. The water was way to dirty in the evening, I can see with bare eyes it being a bit blurry. As mentioned you can see how dirty the water is that it can infect my eyes with very short period of contact and affects immediately. It is very scary, suggest to stay away.

    Lost out on a yearly membership sign up due to not answering the telephone! Been calling since 9.10 and finally gave up listening to the hold music after 15 minuites! Absolute joke of an establishment.

    Met with Melissa for my induction. Very professional and very pleasant. Looking forward to my first session next week.

  • 4/5 Sue P. 2 years ago on Google
    Really good place for swimming lessons- only negative is changing room door a bit of a worry when it opens onto children coming in.

  • 3/5 Jane P. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely facilities (even if the changing rooms are a total maze! 😁), tricky booking system, no structure to the lane swimming so difficult to know which lane to use. Very friendly staff and clean premises

  • 2/5 Sarah G. 2 years ago on Google
    Swimming lessons for children (younger) I would not recommend, far too many children in one class. Instructor can not teach them all. 20 mins in the pool when you pay for 30 mins

  • 4/5 Phil G. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice clean sports centre and pool, smallish car park. Worth joining to get extra benefits

  • 5/5 Viraj P. 1 year ago on Google

    Took my grandson swimming, the small pool is not warm enough for babies, he loved the water but we had to get out early as he was so cold.

  • 5/5 Paul S. 2 years ago on Google
    Modernisation has really elevated the facilities. A real asset.

  • 5/5 Babs K. 2 years ago on Google
    My kids love their swimming lessons there. Been going for 3 to 4 years.

    Take my kid for holiday swimming classes. Good experience all over.. Neat premises and helpful staff. It has a large car park which is free to use as long as you enter your car registration number on the screen at the reception.
