Our comment from FitFit UK about Abercynon Sports Centre:

Abercynon Sports Centre, located in Mountain Ash, is a fantastic facility catering to a range of sports and leisure activities. Visitors have praised the cleanliness of the centre and the friendliness of the staff, who are described as always helpful and welcoming.

The centre offers a lovely swimming pool that is generally considered to be quieter than other local pools, making it ideal for families and those looking to relax. Many users enjoy the variety of classes available, as well as the excellent gym facilities equipped with state-of-the-art equipment.

However, some users have noted that the swimming pool could be colder compared to nearby facilities and have mentioned the absence of a café, which they believe would enhance the overall experience. Additionally, a few have remarked on issues with dirty changing facilities at times, although this is often attributed to council staff cutbacks rather than the efforts of the friendly staff.

Overall, Abercynon Sports Centre is recommended for its great atmosphere and amenities, though an improved food service and consistent cleanliness in changing areas could elevate the experience even further.

Peter Jenkins Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: Typically Valleys under financed Leisure Centre. Staff friendly and centre kept clean. As in most places the snack vending machines rarely work properly without the assistance of staff - some of whom more prepared to help than others. Rediculously priced snacks.

Carl Barter Published on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and a great sports centre not as busy as most places like aberdare due to its location but that's a positive if you have a car

Ash Vaughan Published on Google 4 years ago

Negative experience: Staff weren't very keen on giving any information, also didn't seem happy at all. Viewing area for swimming wasn't 'open' yet staff members on thier mobiles happily used it ‍♂️ my son can swim 50+ meters yet was shouted at for passing the 'no arm band' zone and he wasn't even wearing any. Asked to use a diving weight which was being used to prop the door open only to be told it may be to heavy for us? Very disappointed in the service for the money. Doubt we will return

Fantastic experience: Well done Abercynon Swimming Pool, young instructor with a group of lower abilitie school children , she was fantastic with the children and even got in with them, they loved it, sorry I dont know her name, but well done and thank you x

jayne tan Published on Google 6 years ago

Positive experience: Train here regularly with my swim team. The pool is always very clean and since it’s renovations a few years back, it has drastically improved. The showers are clean and work very well and the refreshed changing area is also clean and spacious. The pool also has diving blocks now, which i think were a great addition. Docked a star because they also put in a new ceiling... with no lines so backstroke can sometimes be a bit hit or miss

Positive experience: Good range of classes and activities, could do with being refurbished in some parts. Swimming pool is slightly warmer than nearby Aberdare which we are told is because there is no separate toddler pool, no diving pool. Very nice staff. There is a large car park.
