East Riding Leisure Francis Scaife

Positive experience: Am a member and have been for many a year. This post is just for the swimming pool. It's looking shabby and no longer meeting the needs of the community. There's only one pool and when I take the grandchildren its difficult for them to learn to swim and play in the pool at public swim times. There use to be a lane roped of for fast swimmers this has long gone and needs bringing back . You are just moving all the time in the shallow end ,it's no longer enjoyable. It's the worst pool in East Yorkshire. Been to Hornsea in half term, perfect time was had, meet everyone needs. Come on East Yorkshire Council,time for a new leisure centre in Pocklington please

Negative experience: I have just joined the gym/swim on a membership scheme, the gym was great for the size alot of equipment in there plenty of enough equipment to get a pump on and good cardio. The receptionists were very friendly, kind and welcoming. The gym changing rooms were fine, typical changing rooms. The pool and sauna was another issue and completely ruined my experience. 1. The pool was dirty and full of hair and dirt along the bottom of the pool. 2. I don't want to sound like the fashion police but the staff allow swimmers to wear actual G-Strings/Thongs (string thongs) as acceptable swimwear when their are children around which I found unacceptable. 3. I went into the sauna, the sauna is good it's a little sauna and great to get a sweat on, but it says swimwear only and over 16's (I believe). I had young teenagers running in and out of the sauna fully clothed shoes on running in and out of there, I was in today and some woman walked in fully clothed with a coat on and shoes. 4. People walk around the changing rooms with shoes on despite it saying no outdoor shoes on, on the door to the swimming changing rooms. (I understand the lifeguards wear indoor shoes only) 5. The changing room floors were FILTHY, wet leaves along the floor in clumps, dirty footprints, pools of muddy water and the smell in the changing rooms.

Fantastic experience: My young children go there for swimming classes, nice staff at reception. Swimming instructors are great, especially Kirsty . Good facilities for everyone really

Negative experience: There is no cold water. The water is very hot. A bathroom with cold water is needed

Fantastic experience: Clean and tidy good little gym and swimming pool spinning classes and a lot more it's got a sports hall and squash courts the staff are friendly and very helpful

Positive experience: Fantastic staff, a bit dated but let down by the size of the pool

Negative experience: Really dirty all over the pool area and changing rooms. Place needed hosing down and a fresh lock of paint. The pool was a good temperature though

Fantastic experience: The people here are just wonderful, both the receptionists and the trainers. The place and the facilities are good, but it is the people who make it special.

Fantastic experience: Great helpful staff. Not to bust at 7am

Positive experience: A thank you to Neil the new kid on the block in the gym. Help and guidance from him, this was my first visit to this gym certainly won't be the last.

Positive experience: Been going here for a year and a half, it’s got everything you need in there for weightlifting so long as you’re sticking to the compound movements and cable exercises; good variety of cardio machines as well. Only downside is it’s very small so if you go at busy times you’ll have a job trying to get on the equipment. If you go nice and early like when it opens as I do however, then it’s not that busy and you’ll be absolutely fine.

Fantastic experience: It’s good but the swimming pool is very small and it’s a struggle to get in for a swim in the week due to lessons on all the time!

Negative experience: Worst gym I've ever trained at , machines so close together you can smell the person next to you. Self entitled people tying up 2 or 3 pieces of equipment so you can't get on My son stopped training here because it was full of weirdos (nonces) staring at him. And a member of staff in the changing rooms flashing at the kids trying to get changed , I cancelled mine and my sons membership and am now getting harassed for monies owed Stay well clear of this place

Fantastic experience: I've just returned to the gym after some time off. The staff and other customers are friendly and welcoming. The classes that I have joined in have been fun and motivating; the quality and professionalism of the instructors has been excellent. Given the size and age of the venue I really feel the Management and staff do a great job and work hard to deliver the best service possible with the resources that they have. Would I change anything? Maybe open a little earlier ........ and even more classes. But all that really needs to be said is Thank you .

Fantastic experience: Great value, really good, friendly service and a fantastic local amenity.

Positive experience: A great gym, staff are friendly and the equipment and facilities are clean. The classes are also good, I always feel like I’ve had a good work out when attending the classes.

Positive experience: Went swimming whilst on holiday. Pool old but sufficient and clesn

Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff very friendly.

Fantastic experience: Staff are always friendly and helpful. Facilities are great.

Fantastic experience: Great little gym with all you need

Positive experience: Some lovely staff, lots of them young and productive always with a smile on their faces. Showers (at the moment) are dodgy but soon to be fixed and an almost brand new changing facilities. The pool itself is 20 meters long.

Fantastic experience: Nice little gym, nothing more to say really!

Negative experience: I hate this place. So many people in one small room, I counted 30. No chance to get on any equipment. Meanwhile next door the spin class room is used once a day, if that. Buy more weights equipment and put it in the spin class room. Absolute joke this place has triple the customers from a year ago, lets all the children in and hasn't invested in anything. Staff are useless. No gym etiquette. Can't wait for a better place to open up.

Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the gym and squash courts, good instructors and friendly helpful staff

Positive experience: Went to look around seemed very disorganised and not particularly clean

Positive experience: Nice clean area inside, kids first swimming lessons

Positive experience: Has everything here. Pool is a bit small & grubby looking but seems like a good sports centre

Positive experience: Great gym facilities + have membership options for under 16.

Fantastic experience: We played badminton in the hall and had the place to ourselves The staff were very friendly and helpful Although the pool was not large by other standards it was big enough and was frequented by plenty of people It's a place to keep in mind as very handy and a friendly atmosphere

Fantastic experience: Cheerful and welcoming staff and great value particularly if you are an oldie like me.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant, tried aqua aerobics for the first time. Loved it. Staff helpful and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Nice place and great service!

Fantastic experience: Attended the Phoenix High Fliers trampolining this afternoon. Amazing display from talented youngsters with a dedicated coach. Brilliant!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym and pool. Staff are all helpful, friendly and make you feel so welcome. Many varied classes to choose from.

Negative experience: Cramped and very uncomfortable seriously expand your premises! unless you enjoy working out with someone's armpit in your face..just not my thing

Fantastic experience: Aqua aerobics class I go to is a fun workout

Positive experience: Was ok

Fantastic experience: Great gym, good kit, nice staff. Stages flight is mega fun. Great facilities and good value. IT need updating,

Fantastic experience: Good facilities

Fantastic experience: A perfectly good local leisure centre. A 20metre pool is quite a curiosity but it's set up well. Mask wearing is still requested and requited by the centre but essentially none of the patrons comply.

Positive experience: Not a bad gym and pool but is in a huge need of updating. The pool is exactly the same its been for the last 30+ years. Broken equipment in the gym takes literally months to be repaired. Also annoying when you go for a public swim with the kids and they still close off half the pool for lane swimmers.

Positive experience: Enjoy it a lot. Glad getting back to normal

Fantastic experience: Great helpful and friendly staff.

Positive experience: Friendly staff,, and covid safe

Fantastic experience: Excellent place to visit for exercise therapy

Positive experience: Very well run .felt perfectly safe . Instructors are excellent.

Positive experience: Whilst this was adequate for the original Pocklinton, due to the building of several new housing estates it's too small now. Pocklington needs a replacement leisure centre with a bigger pool/changing area.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and approachable staff. Nothing is too much trouble. I always feel welcome .Staff will go that extra mile - when dealing with general public.

Fantastic experience: I swim here with my club. The staff are nice

Fantastic experience: Very pleasant and accommodating. The facilities are also pretty dam good.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym. Covid secure and lovely staff.

Positive experience: First visit back since the lockdown. Obviously like many places there have been significant changes, however I felt safe & relaxed. Will definitely be booking more sessions, I really need to build my fitness level back up :-)

Fantastic experience: Covid safe and brilliant to be back in the pool!

Fantastic experience: Well done to Darren and the team!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic experience at the centre. The staff are a delight and truly entertaining! Would recommend 100% as a place to exercise! Very happy experience!

Positive experience: Small pool, but friendly leisure centre

Negative experience: My son says so

Fantastic experience: The equipment in the gym has recently been upgraded and is now much more modern. Everything is back since COViD caused so many restrictions.

Fantastic experience: The staff are always helpful and the range of classes is brilliant. Recommend the Pilates and yoga. Andrea the teacher is superb. Ten out of ten.

Fantastic experience: Great value offer over the summer holidays

Fantastic experience: Old school leisure centre, lovely little place with two squash courts and a 20m pool I loved it

Fantastic experience: Great facilities. Really good staff. Left my car unlocked, they where quick to notice. Nice area, good equipment. Also martial arts classes here.

Positive experience: Everything you need and staff are friendly.

Fantastic experience: Lovely little leisure centre. I visited for a swim with my 4 month old little boy whilst we were holidaying nearby and had a great time. The staff were very helpful from the initial query via phone to the lifeguards and the gentleman hoovering in reception whilst I had a coffee after! It was summer holidays so I thought it may be too busy but it was very calm and pleasant. Pool temp was 29 but my baby was fine in his swim nappy and body suit (it was 30 degrees outside however!). Lovely afternoon, thank you.

Positive experience: Gym has great equipment but is tiny. The hall is outdated, small and no cooling system for the hot summer days, not ideal for exercise classes. Parking is severely limited. Everything is clean but in desperate need of major upgrades such as larger pool.

Positive experience: Brilliant sports facilities and loads of varied classes to keep you fit and interested

Fantastic experience: This is a fantastic place, I’ve been coming here for 15 years on and off. The staff are always friendly and helpful, the gym is clean and well equipped. I’ve noticed a lot of the staff have been here for many years, which I think says a lot. 33pounds all in with all fitness classes is the value you will find

Fantastic experience: Been using this place for years. Great classes, great gym and lovely staff.

Positive experience: Handy for a swim

Fantastic experience: Great Friendly place . Staff very helpful

Fantastic experience: Amazing to swim in

Positive experience: Only used for swimming facilities but overall very good. However the adults only swimming is currently only Tuesday and Wednesday. It would be better to space them out for example Monday and Thursday or Tuesday and Friday. Also children swimming should be finished by at the latest 6.30pm. But overall a very good facility for Pocklington and the surrounding area.

Fantastic experience: Great!

Positive experience: Well kept gym with good variety of equipment and helpful friendly staff however broken equipment takes far too long to be mended.

Fantastic experience: Good facilities, friendly staff, competitive prices!
