Fantastic experience: Brickfields sports centre is an excellent place to get fit. The staff are lovely, helpful and nothing is too much bother. No one ever judges you on technique or appearance. Everyone is there to achieve their own goal but if you are struggling then there are personal trainers on site to advise you and help. Come and join the gang, you'll love it.

Greg Yates 4 years ago

Positive experience: I've been using this gym for a number of years. There are probably others better equipped and, especially during these Covid times, there are fewer machines available. I have also done classes here. These are also good. What sets this gym apart for me is the friendliness of the trainers and other staff. They have been consistently helpful and encouraging over the years I have been using it.

S “DartFlinger” 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: ++ Brilliant staff. Large venue. Most pints £3.50 ish - - Gets cold. Wind noise. Pint of cola £3.00 I had a great time here in the marquee off Damerel Close. The bar staff were efficient and well mannered. Most problems stem from the weather more than anything, so your experience may vary. Would easily accommodate weddings, birthdays, corporate events and more.
