    It's been kinda cold in the pool these days. Also, during my time there I couldn't imagine a lifeguard being more bored... He didn't even pay attention to the people swimming in there along with a parent and her young child staying in the lane swim pool? A notice for the family pool would have been nice yet it seems the lifeguard couldn't be bothered at all. Please do like your job more as life's are at stake. Thank you!

    This is a nice centre to visit. A lot of different activities available; I only visit to play squash though. There are 4 squash courts from what I could see. Rackets and balls are available on sight. There's also swimming, a gym for workouts, cycling, rock climbing and a soft play area for kids. I travel from Great Yarmouth which only takes 18-19 minutes drive. No need for a membership in order to use the facilities. I would definitely recommend.

    My honest opinion of this place is that it's ok. But could be much better if the gym equipment upstairs was exchanged. Some of the equipment is uncomfortable to use. The leather padding is ripped on a few machines. They never have the televisions on. I heard they can't be bothered to have the ariel fixed? If it was inspected by the council in the near future? I'm sure things will change. Update: not only do they answer the phone and put it straight back down on you (after you have been waiting over half an hour for someone to answer) they also answer and don't say anything. Just stay silent. What is wrong with these people?

    Soft play is good for 0 years plus. Mine was 7 years old and loved it. Only issue was reception team not knowing when events in the establishment were due to start, which I think is essential information reception should know.

    Amazing facility, staff are amazing and accommodating to my situation as I was only visiting for a few days. Perfect for family. Every where us clean and well kept. Beautiful changing rooms and gym

    Essential facility helping to keep the town healthy. Join here and get access to many more facilities across the region! Staff professional and so helpful too!

    Asked a question on their Facebook page and nobody got back. Attended a swimming gala that evening... we're talking perhaps sixty swimmers ONE lifeguard. Fortunately there were no incidents but they were definitely short staffed. On the whole, a great atmosphere, if you're applying for work I'd encourage it! To answer the question (as of Sat 15th April 2023) I posted on Facebook: LOCKERS TAKE £1 COINS and THESE ARE RETURNED TO YOU.

    As a establishment it's fine. Good facilities. However, the swim classes we joined are now over stacking classes. Packing 12 kids in with one teacher. Kids don't get enough coaching..coaches cannot keep an eye on kids ability or safety. As I watch now, the kids don't have enough space in the designated area. Accident waiting to happen. Shame

    We went to a birthday party here today in the soft play area... Everything was lovely. The place was clean. There was plenty of parking and wide automatic doors which is ideal for disabled people. The staff were friendly and helpful as well.

    My cousin and her partner came to visit for a few days. We wanted to do something local that wasn't going to break the bank. So, I decided on a morning at waterlane. We used the courts there to play babmington and used the pool/spa facilities afterwards. Unfortunately, the virtual spinning started a bit too early for us, so we weren't able to take part in that. Enjoyed what we did do, though. Easy to get to, parking was easy, facilities were good, and the place is clean and bright. Staff friendly and helpful.

    Great Leisure Centre, very kind and helpful staff that helped my daughter, who is fussy with food, when they had a brilliant event on this past weekend of Mauy Thai kickboxing that we attended.

    Nice reception staff, great classes. I frequently get to enjoy Zumba, AquaFit, Curcuits, Kettlebells and Spin class all of which have lovely instructors. Pool is great too, I appreciate that they rope of some of the pool for Lane swimming even in busy public or family sessions. It's a shame they don't run adult classes for swimming in the evening though. Gym itself is fully packed with machines and weights, lots more to do than Bannatyne. Overall happy with my membership :)
