“Good classes, gym equipment limited but acceptable, kids allowed in which is a bit annoying when it's busy . Women's changing rooms in desperate need of upgrade. Hooks needed on the shower doors at very least. Showers on the pool side are communal so I have go to worsley to swim so I can have a proper wash afterwards. Hopefully these will be upgraded at some point”

“Good gym if you go at the right time with okay equipment. I am not sure why they employ staff to work on reception because you're usually ignored whilst they sit their on their phones or chatting amongst themselves 🤣”

“Definitely get a good work out here, facilities include large swimming pool, good size gym that spans two floors, badminton courts and more. Took my kid here a few times during the summer holidays and also as a younger child for swimming lessons. Fabulous.”
