Positive experience: Ok for occasional use, low staff numbers sometimes mean extended waits.

Fantastic experience: Amazing sports center highly recommend

Gemma Davies 1 year ago

Positive experience: Great facilities, lovely cafe when it's open. Useful vending machine when it's not! Plenty of toilets, although as they have the odd toilet paper dispenser, it never works as it doesn't come out of the silly little hole!

Christopher Hodgson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great evening classes. Wide age range of attendance, perfect local gym if your not pretentious and feel the need to play tennis at David Lloyd!

Garry Woodward 1 year ago

Positive experience: Good facilities for football, but too frequently the staff shut the lights off too early. Been playing here for about a year and lost count of the number of times the floodlights are shut off before our time is up. Last night was 20:49 (booking is until 20:55). Staff claimed they turned off the wrong lights by mistake but it happens almost every week. I know you want to get home but we’ve paid for our pitch.

Fantastic experience: Great community sports centre, reasonably priced and lots of classes available

Chris Selway 1 year ago

Positive experience: Good range of classes and lessons available. Let down by very poor accessible parking spaces. The bays need repainting with hatching and signs put up to show that they are for blue badge holders only. The management have been told about it repeatedly but so far they have just repainted the 'dude in the chair' logo at the accessible bays. It's helped, but kind of unfinished.

Positive experience: Esther and Pete's cafe fabulous as always!! Disabled facilities inside the building are great!However, my Mum, who travelled on her power chair to meet us there for lunch, had to go onto the access / approach road as there is NO dipped kerb on the pavement at the opposite side to the entrance of the sports centre!

Fantastic experience: Brilliant venue, with friendly staff and an amazing cafe open to the public. A real change from the usual "Costa" rip off units usually found in these places. So a bit of a workout if you want, and some amazing food all under one roof

Thanks for your feedback Paul. The lines were repainted approximately two months ago and we are disappointed that they haven't lasted as long as anticipated. We are aware of the condition of the courts and are looking into a few options to improve this facility in order to give our users the best experience possible. Please bare with us while we get this issue sorted.

Fantastic experience: Great local gym and helpful friendly staff.

Alexandra Griffiths 7 years ago

Positive experience: A tiny gym, but fine. 2 out of the 4 treadmills were out of order when I was there, which was frustrating. The changing room next to the gym is tiny and has zero privacy and the changing rooms below have the worst showers ever. However, the staff were really nice!
