Our comment from FitFit UK about Xcite Armadale:

Xcite Armadale is a welcoming sports center that features a well-maintained swimming pool, known for being one of the warmer and deepest pools in the West Lothian area, at a depth of 3 meters. Families love the space it offers, allowing children to learn to swim without overcrowding. The friendly and helpful staff are frequently commended, making visitors feel comfortable, especially those with special needs.

Facilities include:

  • Swimming pool with a dedicated toddler area
  • Sauna and steam room with limited capacity during peak times
  • Quiet gym, although noted as being small and lacking in equipment
  • Regular aerobics classes

While the cleanliness and maintenance of the facilities generally receive positive remarks, some users have pointed out areas for improvement, such as the need for better gym equipment. Additionally, a few visitors have expressed disappointment with the limited viewing areas during swimming lessons and the venue's upcoming permanent closure.

Overall, Xcite Armadale remains a cherished spot for families and swimming enthusiasts alike, offering a pleasant and community-focused atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Nice pool. However, the gym is extremely small. The venue is closing permanently at the end of August 2023.

Positive experience: Grandson learning to swim and asked me along to watch. No viewing area - had to peer through a window covered with photos. Very disappointed. Not surprised this place is closing considering the far better facilities on offer at my local Bathgate Excite.

Louise Reid 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this pool never over crowed so my children have space to learn. Everyone's so kind as my kids are autistic so makes it hard. Also love how it doesn't have big window like bathgate where ever single creep can stand and watch u. Love how small the gym is again not alot of over crowding and u get personal with the staff xx fantastic

Eddy Winsent 6 years ago

Negative experience: I did not like it, first I check your website and I though you are a well-equipped gym in this neighborhood , you can't believe it took me ages to use some facilities coz long row , less equipment and the fitness plan I got was so awkward , you have to recruited the expert and professional coaches.

Robert Ross 7 years ago

Positive experience: Nice warm baby pool and large main pool. I have twin toddlers and there's only 1 large changing cubicle so it's down to luck whether it's free. They don't seem to enforce using the blue shoe covers. I always do but I see plenty of others that don't.

Positive experience: Small Gym. No barbells, limited space, few basic machines. Have to use this gym as i cannot get into Bathgate or Livingston easily. Go elsewhere for a gym if possible.

Gordon Donaldson 8 years ago

Positive experience: Very friendly and professional staff who are always there to help. Could do with all the hairdryers working at one time as its a bit of a nightmare after the children's lessons are finished and people are queuing waiting for 1 or 2 dryers... Some of the swiming instructors are fantastic and have really helped my girls improve in the pool.
