Fantastic experience: Forget everything else - this is what what you get if you hire Hawthorn leisure centre for a party for toddlers!! Approx £120 for two hours (at time of posting) and you bring your buffet. Ideal for a bunch of screaming lunatics. If you *have* to stay to chaperone your child, I recommend noise cancelling headphones.

Fantastic experience: So much to do
Positive experience: Good clean facilities but the gym is very small with limited equipment. If the gym was bigger then I would give 5 stars. The sauna/steam room is a couple of years old but you would not know that as it has been kept up to a good standard and is very clean. The showers are spacious unlike the new rhondda fach unisex showers. If you want to use a select few machines and then hit the sauna and steam room then this is definitely the place to go. I was not too keen on the camera in the sauna area though. The thought of being watched in your bathers is not a comfortable thought.
