The Muswell Hill Club

Recreation center

👍👍 I have been a member since January and I have enjoyed my time at the club. It is very spacious so you don't feel like you on top of everyone else or feel like you are waiting around for equipment or machines.

Seriously FUN Swimming Schools

Swimming instructor

👍👍 I originally started sending my son the the intensive holiday courses when I feel pregnant with my daughter as we had a holiday booked for shortly after she was born and I was worried that my attention would now be decided and I wanted to ensure he would be able to swim by the time we went so if he...

Seriously FUN Swimming Schools

Swimming school

👍👍 My 8 year old daughter just completed the intensive swimming course. The teachers made her feel at ease and she had so much fun. It's amazing how much confidence she gained and we will be booking regular sessions soon. Thanks

The Health Club at One Aldwych

Spa and health club

😠 Absolutely disgraceful. All other spas allow 2 hours of the facilities- this spa only allows 60 minutes. That would be fine if they didn’t expect you to shower in this time too. If you want to use the pool or the gym, you have to rush, or have your treatment hot and sweaty. The staff member was so r...

Noah's Ark Naturist Swim

Swimming pool

👍👍 A friendly bunch who promote family friendly social nudity. At their previous venue there was just the pool and sauna/steam/jacuzzi. At Sports Direct you also have the use of the gym (bring trainers and a towel to sit on), fitness classes and naked Pilates (bring a towel). So if you want to try s...

Colets Health & Fitness

Spa and health club

🫤 Disappointing. I tried it because of the location, there not being too many options around the area without going into Kingston. As a swimming pool/squash club for families it may be alright, but as a gym I feel it's overpriced for the facilities. The weights area is small and basic, and the cardio...

St Margarets Sports Centre

Swimming pool

👍 Lovely little coffee shop by the side of the Sports Centre which unfortunately doesn't have its own pride of place on Google Maps. Had a great cup of coffee there half-way on my hike. Very friendly staff!
