Pendle Leisure Centre: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great swim, plenty of room & wasn’t to busy.
Thanks so much for your review Christine
Fantastic experience: Great facilities, lovely pool and friendly staff.
Thank you so much for your review Chris.
Negative experience: My original post is all I need to say
Positive experience: I only use the gym so I cannot review the swimming pool but what I have experienced is the best junior gym in the area, Better than Seed hill, and Wavelengths ''Junior Gym'' Which is more of a shack than anything, Very Clean and mostly kind staff, Great cardio section. Could do with some new equipment something for the calves and a Chest supported back row would be nice
Thank you so much for your review, we're so glad you enjoy using Pendle Leisure Centre.
Fantastic experience: Zumba and Pilates with Sharon Jones- excellent
Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff Great facilities

Thank you so much for your feedback Scott! Even if you swim just twice a week, you are saving money by being a member! Check out our savings calculator here: https://www.pendleleisuretrust.co.uk/membership/savings-calculator/
Fantastic experience: Good friendly staff. Clean & tidy. Fitness classes are very good & the gym has what you need.
Hi Steven, thank you so much for the review!⭐
Positive experience: Lovely community and people, good size pool... Just a shame the gym is quite small. The classes are really good
Thank you for your feedback Ruby! ️♂️
Negative experience: Where to start. The changing rooms for th gyms are badly dated, no separate showering (kind of looks like the boys lockers at high school in the 80s). But the worst experience I've had there is when a staff member twice tried to public shame me when I tried to make use of the active network scheme while another staff member smirked. Very expensive for the gyms in the area.
Hi David, We’re sorry to hear about you’re experience with us, please accept our apologises. Pendle Leisure Trust strive to ensure customers are made to feel welcome during every visit. We will pass this feedback onto the management team to be dealt with. We are currently undergoing a review, so we hope to upgrade the changing facilities sometime in the future. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: What can I say. The staff are amazing and really went out of their way to ensure that I knew how to use the equipment. The centre was lovely and clean. Well done.
Thank you so much for the feedback Don! We hope to see you again soon️
Positive experience: Just joined, good little gym!
Hi Paul, thank you so much for your feedback! And thanks for joining us we are so happy to welcome you ️♂️
Positive experience: Nice little gym session. Music needs to be a bit more dancey/upbeat instead of slowish rock! :)
Thank you for the stars and the feedback!
Fantastic experience: Super helpful team
Thank you so much for the feedback Dave!
Fantastic experience: Superb place, great classes, amazing instructors.
Hi Graeme, thank you so much for the stars and feedback! ⭐
Positive experience: I like the venue, but feel they could improve the lighting in the main hall, as playing badminton the ceiling lights are in the wrong position and would be better for all players in the lights are moved to the ceiling beams like they are in st.peters Burnley
Thank you for the stars and the feedback Gerhard! We will keep this in mind for future development
Fantastic experience: Love it
Thank you for the feedback Linda! ⭐
Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff. One in particular goes over and beyond for the customers. Her name is Georgina and she always greets you with a smile and even remembers our names. The classes are great and the instructors are really helpful and take time to get to know you. I am disabled and they give me easier ways to do the classes so I can join in. I really recommend signing up to Pendle leisure
Hi Donna, thank you very much for the feedback! We are thrilled that you are enjoying your experience with us! And I have passed your comments on to our lovely Georgina
Negative experience: Should coach their staff on how not to Lear at customers and slag about. Always drug dealers on the car park or someone asking if they can buy them!!! Run down and rusty slide . I wouldn't let my kids on it! Saw one person vomit in the pool .N I'm out..
Positive experience: It's a nice place with nice people
Fantastic experience: First time I've ever been to Pendle Leisure and I did get lost trying to find it, but that was my own fault for being thick! The staff on the desk were lovely and friendly and although I didn't see the whole centre, what I did see was clean, tidy and well maintained.
Fantastic experience: Really friendly at the help desk and the baby swimming class highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Great place to go and play badminton
Positive experience: Love to swim
Negative experience: Lifeguards are very rude. Feel like im at school being observed all the time. Walking into showers and asking us to hurry up when there noone else waiting for the showers. Faces like smacked arsed. Don't look happy to be working there. Don't let children who are confident in swimming to swim without parents being right next to them. Prefer nelson wavelengths but unfortunately not convenient with the timetable
Fantastic experience: A good lane swimming pool
Thank you very much for the review Stuart! ⭐
Fantastic experience: The swimming pools are well kept and the kids love the pool inflatable.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service
Fantastic experience: Nice clean swimming pool. We go for my sons swimming lessons. Not used any of the other facilities yet.
Positive experience: Attended aqua/fit class with a friend who usually comes 2x weekly enjoyed the class & would attend again
Fantastic experience: Helpfull staff changing roon clean and tidy enjoyed the walking football
Fantastic experience: Loved it

Fantastic experience: Small pool warm anuff clean place good price nice and quiet
Fantastic experience: Have just rejoined after waiting to be double jabbed for covid. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. All classes are great and easy online app to book all classes from now. 5
Negative experience: Its ok. Pool is often too cold and they dont let qualified and professional children who swim miles every week use the lanes to practice. That is poor.
Fantastic experience: The staff are brilliant and very helpful
Fantastic experience: Really clean and feels covid safe. Well done staff
Fantastic experience: Everything clean, staff working hard. They are brilliant , helpful and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Very well organized and totally safe
Negative experience: Having been a member for a year ,I was firstly very happy . Sometime ago I had reason to raise a complaint about certain swimmers acting dangerously towards other swimmers.After a couple of weeks they seemed to have sorted the problem out.On August 15 they were busy I was asked to go in fast lane ,I said I didn't want to because one of the above mentioned swimmers was in that lane,The request was repeated so I did as was asked ,After 2lengths of swimming I was barged into by that said said swimmer,I raised the issue with Martin the manager,he took no notice ,I have problems reminded him of that and twice told him I felt he was not listening to me .An arguement ensued,I have now been banned because of that ,no action has been taken against the said swimmer. I have repeatedly stated that they were breaking health and safety criminal laws.I have reported this to Health and safety exec ,who have confirmed what I am saying and that I have been victimised.They are now involved .My advise is stay away the Management have promoted from within to personal friends ,hense this situation whereby they have ignored health and safety laws,and proving that they don't care about members health and safety. A month later and a complete cover up of the situation .Top brass won't talk to anyone over the situation ,and even Alison Goode has refused to take advice from external health and safety officers.I thankfully remain banned .This incident has put me against gyms ,I have actually decided they do more harm than good .Alison ,Quammer,Sam and Martin .You are all hypocrites of the first order ,please everyone do not be deceived by their personalities when you first meet them .They do not care about you or your rights , especially in health and safety Hot off the press this one,The reason they referred there final decision until after covid was because the 1person ,who they knew would be the right person of the public to ask stated that she was concerned about my behaviour.I would put it to them that the reason they did this because I had the audacity to raise a formal grievance against Martin ,and then Sam because she wouldn't do anything about that grievance.No hearing about that grievance has been done.. When you get to know people like these two faced creatures they really do discust.Alison Goode what sort of place do you run here . Question here.Has anybody noticed the failure of "THE OWNER" to make an answer on my review?? The OWNER,is obviously either to afraid to offer to talk to me ,or he/she knows that everything I have stated on here is true ,and simply has no answer??Three months on tomorrow and still no public apology or acceptance of how you treat your customers.Evil the lot of you
Fantastic experience: Great class and feel very safe
Fantastic experience: Just had a children’s inflatables party and it was absolutely brilliant. It was well organised and extremely well staffed with life guards. We hired the area next to the pool to serve food and I can honestly say it was one of the best parties my daughter has had. Thought it was excellent value for money and would definitely recommend. Thank you.
Hi Melanie. Thank you very much for the 5star review, it's so appreciated you taking the time to leave us one. We're so happy you and your daughter enjoyed her party. It's was a pleasure hosting you. We hope to see you visit us again soon. Thanks again.
Positive experience: Water was a bit cold .I found around the pool was very slippy .

Fantastic experience: Took kids for crash swimming course over Easter holidays. Instructor was very good and the kids loved it. There seems to be plenty going on.
Positive experience: Nice swimming pool and friendly staff
Positive experience: Good range of classes, pleasant freindly staff, good facilities
Positive experience: Very good...should do a swim only membership. 30 quid is a lot just to swim
Positive experience: Great facility but needs more activities and to be used more
Positive experience: Great gym and pool, it's ashame the sports hall is being converted into a soft play area and dance studio, as colne has a lot of up and coming sporting talent in the area it does need money spending on the facility or maybe a brand new state of the art academy is what is needed for colne☺
Fantastic experience: Sick blood
Positive experience: This is a good place to let your kids play in the swimming pools on weekend. They sometimes have a inflatable in the pool. And lots of livegrands to watch them
Positive experience: Great facilities, staff are very helpfull.
Positive experience: Friendly staff lovely and clean areas and good variety of equipment
Fantastic experience: Lots of rapists
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff great equipment
Fantastic experience: Good facilities
Negative experience: Pool is always cold.
Fantastic experience: The new gym is a big improvement. Achieved the impossible in making the room appear to be bigger than it was! Treadmills seem slower and weights appear to be heavier than before - but that's probably just me getting old!
Fantastic experience: Very nice new gym. Staff on site every time I've been. Easy parking, quiet changing area. Showers are a bit limp but other than that a good experience
Fantastic experience: Great for cheap swim at weekend with family.
Positive experience: Excellent facilities and friendly staff
Fantastic experience: It's a save place the staff are responsible and are helpful and after all they teach u how to swim
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and helpful staff.
Positive experience: Good swimming pool with extra kids pool. We went for the water rollers session which was very reasonably priced
Positive experience: Like it here with a baby pool means I can take both children on my own
Fantastic experience: Took my 9 year old and 12 year old daughters here so they could experience the outside 'Urban Altitude' activities. Kids loved it!! They opted for the low and high wire course plus the zip wire. £15/each. Took them about 90 minutes to complete the course. The staff doing the course came across really well!! Great to come across people with personalities doing this kind of job. They were really very good at talking to the kids and even better at putting them at ease if kids struggled to come over a fear - very impressed with that!!!! No doubt we will go again, I'm 99% sure my kids will ask to go again at some point. Well done Urban Altitude!!!!
