“Please keep your attention at Juniors membership here. Under 16 Juniors, if you pay for your child here straight for the whole year, it comes two months cheaper as the direct debit payment. It is only £159.80 for a full year( gym, classes, and swimming included). Fantastic price. Fantastic present for your family. There are a lot of parking spaces. Monthly direct debit will be £15.90 per month. It comes you save for yourself 2 MONTH FREE. Student direct debit will be £20/ per month(12 x £20=240. But straight for the all year payment will be only £200( gym, classes and swimming). Strongly recommend to look over this agreement. Unbelievable service, big building, cafe, and tables area for parents where you can use your laptop. You are really welcome. For more information, call them on a landline. Very good coaches. 1 minute walk from tennis centre and gym. But you really shouldn’t go to the bar here - the service is terrible and the sandwiches are awful. This café is at the main entrance to the water park.”
