Atlantic Racquet Centre

Fantastic experience: Love everything about this place. Firstly all the staff , from the reception, the instructors and the manager are so lovely and approachable. I came here to fitness classes with Abi & Estelle 3 months ago now, I attend the over '50s' group and its the best thing I ever did. They both are easy to talk to , take into account my weaknesses, and adapt the exercise if needed for me. I have had a lot of health issues and I can honestly say what I can do now, to what I was unable to do 3 months ago is nothing short of amazing, I'm stronger, I'm fitter ,mentally I'm so much better and added bonus I've lost weight but I've toned up. I'm 64 and this will be a way of life for me now. You have to try it for yourselves, you won't look back, small friendly group , I knew nobody, I was welcomed, try it!

Fantastic experience: This is a really impressive facility, with really good courts inside and out, plus a gym. The staff are fantastic, really friendly and helpful. It's a great asset for the local area. I attended a Tennis Xpress course for beginners and had so much fun. It was a great course for also being introduced to game strategy and a variety of technical aspects - I think the pace was really good.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym classes. They're good for all abilities and the coaches are always happy to change an exercise/ make it more manageable if you have an injury or are unfit like me! Really relaxed atmosphere, the only gym that I've felt comfortable in.

Fantastic experience: Many thanks to Tennis Tom who is absolutely brilliant with the kids. His enthusiasm is infectious and my son is really enjoying the starter group.

Fantastic experience: I use the gym facilities here and all the staff are so friendly and welcoming. As an overweight, unfit, autistic person, I find new things overwhelming, especially exercise! I have always been made to feel welcome and classes are always tailored for me and my fitness level. I know I am able to chat to staff and they will happily accommodate any requirements I have, and I have never felt like I am unwelcome or too unfit. Overall, a brilliant facility and amazing staff :)

Positive experience: Met my cousin at the centre who was over from Germany.... a couple of hours knocking the ball ... the courts are nice quality but I was very disappointed at how dirty the place is .... the courts don't look like they've been cleaned for weeks .... all sorts including food all over the edges and the actual courts were dirty too .... not just one court as I walked up and down .... the carpets in the viewing gallery at the entrance to the courts are also filthy ... covered in fluff off the balls so much so they look green not grey again clearly not been cleaned for weeks .... such a shame really as the overall facilities are good ... outside area has been done very tastefully.... probably will be nicer if it eventually ever gets finished but a long time in the waiting

Fantastic experience: We went for a tennis open day for our 5 year old, the session was great and the venue was surprisingly big and very well kept.
