Fantastic experience: First visit here due to poor facilities in Shrewsbury. Staff on reception were very friendly and helpful, I took time out to explain about my wife's condition and staff here were accommodating. Emma, the duty manager was extremely professional along with her team. Cheaper pricing than other baths...Overall, well worth a visit.
Positive experience: It just needs WiFi for when you're in the gym as no much mobile phone cover. Otherwise perfect!

Fantastic experience: Basic but certainly great teachers who encourage the children to there best abilities my daughter loves attending
Negative experience: Impossible to use if there's more than 2 other people
Fantastic experience: My daughter started going swimming lessons here about 5 weeks ago. She absolutely loves it. Staff are friendly and although facilities are basic, it does the job. I also signed up to a membership which is well worth it.

Fantastic experience: LET'S WISH THEM WELL IN LOCKDOWN CLOSURE AND SUPPORT THEM WHEN THIS LOVELY LOCAL FACILITY GETS GOING AGAIN. STAY SAFE WEM. Open and well adapted as can be to these difficult times. Options for exercise in the pool or the gym. Limited numbers,pre booking by phone call only and a requirement to be prepared to adapt to minimise or avoid use of changing rooms and showers. Cozzies on under and bag for outerwear kept poolside. Pat dryish, dress and leave with wet cozzies on. TOP TIP Take a carrier bag to cover car seat and wash at home.
Positive experience: Nice gym and pool could just do with a bench press
Positive experience: The place is clean and the kids love the time of day when they get all the floats out. It is pretty basic - only 3 cubicles to change in the ladies, and the showers are extremely close together with no dividers so can't really use while someone else in using them. Saying that the price is really reasonable so you don't really mind.
Fantastic experience: Took my daughter here today for the tots swimming session, its a lovely little pool, nice and warm and the changing area is adequate enough. I haven't used the gym facilities but from what I've seen it looks great for a quick workout. The staff were friendly and the place overall is great.
