Desborough Leisure Centre: Opinions
Negative experience: Was accused one morning of leaving weights out in the gym by the manager, without actually seeing me do it himself.i actually thought the guy was joking when he accused me. Especially when everything I use the gym there are dumbells and plates left lying around. Luckily he caught me in a good mood. The gym looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years. All weight machines are covert in dirt and dust. Never seen one cleaner in the gym to be honest. The toilets are always dirty with wee and poo all over the seats. Again in the years I have trained at this gym I have never seen a cleaner in the toilet. Gym is very small. It's a fight for equipment from 4 till about 7.
Fantastic experience: Great parkrun rendezvous, limited parking on Saturday at 9am!
Positive experience: Kids loved it
Fantastic experience: lots of shops post office no queues lovely churches
Fantastic experience: Small but plenty
Fantastic experience: Nice little skate plaza and pump track. Suitable for all abilities
Fantastic experience: I haven't used the Leisure Centre, but we visit regularly to use the outdoor space. There's a very well made pump track and skate park which is very family oriented and good fun for toddlers, young children, teens and adults. There's plentiful free parking and the outdoor play/skate area is always very clean and tidy. There are toilets and snacks available in the leisure centre, however it's a great place to bring a picnic in warm weather. There's not much seating outdoors and it can get windy here, so bring folding camp chairs - there's a nice sheltered spot to sit at the side of the leisure centre, facing the skate park which also catches the sun. The play park is good for young children, but not particularly challenging for older kids, but there's lots of space to run around or bring outdoor games. You can also access nice nature walks from here, but be careful not to get your car locked in the car park at closing time if you're exploring nearby.

Positive experience: Good gym, although a little tight for space. Could do with taking a few bits out and relocating treadmills so that users can see TV screens. That said, a good gym, easy parking, and great staff.

Positive experience: It had great facilities and i could really play badminton well in the conditions. One thing, why place a beauty salon next to sweaty badminton courts and players
Negative experience: For me, the gym itself is ridiculously small for the growing population in the area. When using some of the equipment, at certain times of the day, due to the lack of space it begins to feel extremely uncomfortable and very hot. Staff were not very friendly.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant
Fantastic experience: Plenty of activities to choose. Children activities. possibility to hire the indoor hall for children parties.
Fantastic experience: Good enough exit and entrance, the site has adequate green space and hard playing areas, with car parking. You can park on grassland to watch two pitches if it is wet or too cold. The centre lobby is spacious and the centre well thought out. Could do with a bit of makeover now. Warm inside with area to eat. Staff pretty helpful or as good as you can expect these days. Very children friendly. In good location for Market Harborough and A14.
