Positive experience: Not much there in terms of machines and often the music is blasting and way too loud. Classes are in the same room as the gym. I would say it's basic and okay.
Negative experience: Will never go back....it was dirty disgusting....the floor was dirty grimey big clumps of hair all over the floor....makes my skin crawl thinking about it.....yuk..!!!!!!!
Negative experience: Clean swimming pool, but it is not fit for purpose. Tiny pool, overpriced tickets, cramming inside, unable to have a good swim, hardly any time for working people to swim in peace . Not even open Friday afternoon?? Normanton needs to build a bigger one with working-people friendly opening hours and reduced prices. Also need to have swimming classes in the afternoon for working people.

Fantastic experience: The staff at the pool & gym are brilliant! They all take really good care of the place & are really helpful. So lucky to have this place on the doorstep. The pool is really clean & well organized. I have recently started at the gym & can't recommend their classes & their facilities enough. Excellent!

Fantastic experience: Normanton pool was excellent Feb 5 morning exercise classes
Negative experience: Saw a naked man running around near my children
Positive experience: Nice friendly place, just a pool.
Fantastic experience: I lived just round the corner to Castleford pool until in their wisdom they decided to close it. The manager managed it and Normanton pool jointly. A customer friendly man in every aspect of his job. So I and a few others thought we would try Normanton pool. Best decision we ever made. The manager runs a very accessible, clean pool with very helpful friendly staff who accepted us as strangers but within weeks felt part of a big family with the locals also very friendly. That was nearly two years ago and we have no intention of moving elsewhere. Thanks mainly to the Manager and his Staff.
Fantastic experience: Nice pool 3pm mondays is a good time to visit as the children have finished there class
Positive experience: Good pool but starting to feel a bit dated in comparison to Sun Lane. Swim tags are an hour out and seem to miss 1st 2 length
Positive experience: Son likes it staff always look bored and like they only just woke up
Positive experience: Quite nice but busy
Fantastic experience: Fantastic for learning to swim and also public swimming, the staff and coaches are very helpful.
Fantastic experience: The pool is good, it is a simple swimming pool with family hours also on the timetable where they segregate half the pool and throw in lots of floats for the kids to play with. Attached to the pool is a gym which is fantastic and the best gym I've ever used. It's a modern affair, with very few of the typical sit-down training machines. Instead, it's all bags, balls and dumbbells with friendly staff who are happy to help and guide you how to achieve your goals. It's a no pressure gym, so pushy sales for personal sessions, just a modern and friendly place to keep fit. 5 stars.
Fantastic experience: friendly staff
Fantastic experience: Really friendly staff, the muscle mobility classes are a good way to ease into exercise
