Faith Lockett 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very well equipped sports centre for a smaller location. We visited the pool with our 2 year old and found there to be ample space for changing. The toddler pool has a slide and fountain, and there were toys/floats out during our visit which interested our toddler. There are no private showers in the pool changing area, just the open ones on the side of the pool. There are private showers on the “dry side” but these are not accessible from the pool.

Marion-Faith Fraser 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Really impressive for such a little island. On par with my new 'Better' gym in St Pancreas London. Equipment kept up to date and spa facilities have always been working in my experience. Make sure if swimming that you don't clash with school kids lessons as you won't get to swim during the time they are on. Lovely and clean plus free internet. A joy to visit.
