Kidlington Library

Public library

👍👍 A wonderful facility! Helpful kind staff. A good selection of books. A system that works well. Computers to use and printing done at a small cost. It appears to be a great place for parents to bring their children. I am so grateful for our library.

Wallasey Central Library

Public library

👍 Wallasey Central Library is an old building, Victorian looking with an interior to match. The wooden bookshelves seem to be original, and are well stocked with a great range of books.

Netherton Activity Centre

Leisure centre

👍👍 I an a member of different activate and sefton gyms around sefton, and I've got to say this one is amazing. I've went here more than the other gyms I went to, and it is easy to make friends there. I already go with someone now, and they're kind too. another thing is how it is a short distance from m...

Paignton Library and Information Centre

Library

👍👍 Who doesn't love coffee & cake! Tasty carrot cake. Fair portion size and fair prices. Also had a cappuccino. It was ok but not the best. It was also great to see the poster for those who have communication difficulties and/or disability. Absolutely brilliant and wish these were in every shop. The l...

Ashton Library and Information Service

Public library

👍👍 I called into Ashton Library today & was pleasantly surprised, it is a nice new warm welcoming place. What I did notice first was that quite a few people were there just chatting not reading as libraries used to be. I noticed a few people drinking a hot drink, then noticed a table with free Tea &...

Bicester Library

Public library

👍👍 I took my son there today as usual and he couldn’t really see anything he wanted in the young kids section, he’s 5. So I suggested we look for football books, which we couldn’t find. I asked one of the people who worked there and he found some amazing books for my son! He’s so happy with them, even...

The Arc

Library

😠 Checked this morning that the library is open and confirmed that it was open from 10am. Travelled into town and parked at the library car park managing to get the last space. Paid £1.50 for one hour. Got into the library where I was asked if I am returning books. Also said that I am browsing and wa...

Birkenhead Central Library

Public library

👍👍 Really interesting hidden gem. My son really likes libraries and after seeing the pics I thought the building looked interesting so worth a trip. His review is 'Really good lots of books'. While he looked over the books I had a look around the building, they have some really interesting info on Wilf...

Bridgwater Library

Public library

😠 I was told by a very unfriendly librarian that I wasn't allowed to use the plugs provided in the study area to charge my phone. There was no signs stating " NO mobile Charging". My phone was low on battery from listening to music whilst doing work on the laptop. Lack of freedom to use public facilit...

Walton Library and room hire

Public library

😠 left the library after about 10 minutes as there were children running around and screaming with parents doing nothing to stop them. People were answering their phones and one mans phone kept receiving messages every few seconds. The staff just ignore the noise and it is impossible to concentrate on...

😠 after 1 year , the sauna is still not working!!!!!!

Meadows Leisure Centre

Leisure centre

😠 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.

4.20 (104 reviews) (~220.51 km from centre)

Central Library

Public library

😠 I was always led to believe that library’s are quiet places but apparently that’s not the case anymore. If you’re a toddler and parent you’re allowed to make as much noise as possible. It’s really odd that the library allow screaming disruptive children into their building where they can easily dis...

4.20 (90 reviews) (~188.19 km from centre)

Crewe Lifestyle Centre

Fitness center

👍👍 Excellent service by Sue who helped us get my daughter into swimming lessons. My son also really enjoys learning swimming from Kim. Previous issue on buying certain activities at very specific times seemed to be down to an individual and this has been resolved with the manger.
