Negative experience: I’ve paid for one month only and it’s taking it out monthly. I didn't agree to this and I now can not get hold of them.

When you sign up, it states this is a rolling monthly membership so you did agree to it by signing up to this membership… please read things before spending your money next time and try sending an email if you want to get hold of us or come down to the gym itself during the daytime hours.

Fantastic experience: Real great place, I love it here. One of the best equipped gyms I've ever seen, they've got all the speciality bars, loads of good machines and a stack of nice old-fashioned dumbbells. I especially love the preacher curl machine, preacher, curl machines aren't very good in most gyms, but the one at this gym has rotatable handles and knurling!!!

Stephen Linton 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Incredible gym. The quality of the space, the machines on offer and the fact it's swipe in, available for the majority of day and night. Genuinely can't top the place. A great, old school gym where you can focus on your self improvement without distractions.

Matt Williams 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been going here for the past 5 years, lovely atmosphere & provides you with all the tools for a great workout (some of the best machines I've ever used). Owner has pride in what he has created & is always looking for ways to improve, membership is very reasonable & hasn't raised much since I first started (even with £1000s spent on new machines).

GARETH HUGHES 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've had three sessions now and from the induction onwards I knew Id love this place. Whilst I'm not the most experienced at going to Gyms everything I need is here. I'm an early morning guy and it's surprising how lively some of the other members are at that time. I was made to feel welcome during my first session. Great price, staff and members. A real hidden gem!!
