😠 Each and every time I’ve used the pool during the last 6 months I’ve ended up unwell, including sore throat and heavy colds. Hygiene around the pool area doesn’t seem a priority. People often mention staff, pool, swim, membership, great, facilities, friendly, helpful, clean, library,

    Facilities are great, but I have been caught out a few times by the gym randomly shutting early with no notice. The great facilities aren't much use when you are standing outside looking at them through the window. Really needs to be open later on the weekends as well.

    Lovely gym and the staff couldn't be more friendly but, some of members to the gym NEED to have a small towel to wipe down the machines after them ! Honestly , I have never seen such sweat left on the seats/ headrests ! It's a matter of manners in as much as if you do sweat , then think of the people using the machines after you ! Please management , put up some notices making this compulsory as it's surely a health matter.

    I've used all the facilities on this site since its opened, the pool is always clean, library has got smaller and gym expanded. Staff are always friendly and helpful. The biggest issue is the parking usually on a monday or Tuesday morning between 9 until 11, my advise is park close by and walk the extra 100 yards at these times. Overall good leisure

    Great facilities but, the amazing staff make it. Always polite, professional and friendly. Ladies and gents on reception Gale etc are a credit to the place as are the personal trainers. Have to give a well deserved shout out to Phil, Dave and Sam who are so dedicated, friendly and knowledgeable. Met some really nice people in their also. I only hope those within the heirarchy appreciate all the good work carried out by all the staff, cleaners included who make it a great place to be. Thanks 👍😊. The only negative are, those lazy selfish individuals who, leave their equipment out. Obviously with the expectation that, someone will put it back for them. Makes me so angry. If you can't put the equipment away don't get it out. It's not down to the staff nor other users. Have some consideration 👊

    Without a membership you can use the library, and can take books home for a limited amount of time with a library card. However, with a membership (swimming or gym membership) you get access to a high tech gym with built in television channels, and headphone jacks with YouTube also included. With a swimming membership (or £4.50 for a swim without a membership) you get access to a medium sized pool to swim with friends or family, or just mess around. Overall, without a membership, you get a library, and for £4.50, a swim session. £1 is needed for a locker key however there is a locker key collected that gives you £1 upon return. Without a membership, I'd give it a 3.5/5, but with a membership 5/5. I you can shell out the money and live close, you should get a membership if you are interested in what I have described.

    Gym often full of teenagers just sitting on the machines using their phones. As a paying member I would have preferred the addition of another studio (for classes) to be an extension to the gym, providing more space and equipment. Also the pool is often used for swimming lessons, not leaving even one lane for people who just want to swim.

    If you work shifts like myself and manage to go during the day time it is great. If you aim to go after work then rubbish, it is full of kids sitting on machines on there phones and not actually using the machines, one time some teenager was hurling abuse at other members of the gym and even though staff are helpful they kind of ignored it and so did the childs mother which i am disgusted at.

    Lovely clean building, plenty of changing cubicles and lockers. Slightly overpriced at £6.20 for an adult swim.

    I have been trying to build up the courage to rejoin and go swimming. Staff member Gail was so helpful and understanding this morning that I am now booked in and feel excited about going 👍🏻

    Could be a little more hygienic but staff are great

    This one of my favourite gyms which is upstairs with sauna and a nice set of bicycles for pedalling and also a separate room for peloton type stuff. There is an impressive set of weights and body-building equipment that would give Arnie Swarzeneger a run for his money. Down-stairs is lovely, it has a library and swimming pools, showers, and secure lockers. Outside there are other facilities including cycle track, five-a-side, with great play area for the kiddies which is also great for mums and dads to work- out on.

  • 4/5 Charlie C. 2 years ago on Google
    Quiet nice facilities for casual swim. Best when no swimming lessons on as this can take up half of the pool.

  • 2/5 Ben P. 2 years ago on Google
    Gym is good but the pool is so cold I couldn't get warm staff unfriendly.

  • 3/5 Kev B. 4 years ago on Google
    Ridiculously small carpark for the amount of members, maybe they should reduce the amount of memberships, I've just been and waited 15 minutes for a parking space, ended up coming home!

  • 1/5 Mary C. 3 years ago on Google
    WILL NEVER GO BACK!!!!! Man on reception really rude and made me feel very uncomfortable. Never been made to feel so small.

  • 5/5 Jayne M. 4 years ago on Google
    Lovely facilities. Always clean and staff are so helpful. Did the new circuit on Monday in the gym. Hard but good fun. Legs are a bit sore today and walking a bit funny🤣🙈 but definitely doing it again!!!💖

    Pretty good COVID security by the centre, but unfortunately not by all the customers.

  • 2/5 Angela S. 3 years ago on Google
    Covid innoculation queue outside in freezing temps. (people in their 70's) for almost an hour. Why not open more space inside for people to wait?

  • 5/5 dave w. 2 years ago on Google
