Fantastic experience: Very good gym and very friendly staff

Sue Thompson 1 year ago

Positive experience: Your staff are very rude and their attitude is awful , the impression they give is this is the rules and you will do as you are told.a bit of politeness goes a long way ,and looking like a sour puss is not a great impression.

Chris Tatlow 1 year ago

Negative experience: Went swimming here last weekend with my children for an adult and two children was £24 pounds for one hour in the pool yes the place is clean and tidy but horrendous prices will much rather travel further a field then to pay that again

Peter Osmer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Take kids every week awesome staff friendly helpful and polite kids really enjoy it there

rob stokes 1 year ago

Negative experience: Sadly we turned up with the kids for a "general swim" in half term week and they said they were full & had classes... When we looked at the main pool there couldn't have been more than 5 adults swimming and in the smaller pool about 3 kids in a lesson. Everywhere else sections off the bigger pool to accommodate more people / activities but this concept seems lost here!

Alfie Cook 1 year ago

Positive experience: Great, the water for some reason was colder than usually today and the outside was hotter, not a bummer, it's nice to have a cold swim sometimes

mark tennant 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great pool... Not too warm to swim hard in, not too cold to cruise in.

Jayne Spiers 1 year ago

Negative experience: Changing room needs upgrading desperately..very old and knackered looking.

Tom Buck 1 year ago

Negative experience: This is the pool I learnt to swim in as a child and this was the first visit back since then. It hasn't changed a bit and is run down, however can't complain about cleanliness. We used a guest pass which was free thankfully as we're glad we didn't pay. The pool was far too overcrowded for us to swim lengths without getting cut up by somebody else. We stayed in the pool for less than 20 mins. The pool itself was fine, just too many people. I received a follow up call which I missed but phoned back immediately, and they had no idea what they phoned me about. Later I received a voice message saying they would like feedback on our experience. Well here it is. It's not worth the time or money.

Gyles Brown 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: 5 stars because the coffee machine is working. The staff make this place. 1610 in Dorchester you aren't even looked at. Here we are welcomed with an unforced smile. So glad we changed clubs.

Jane Owen 2 years ago

Negative experience: Complete waste of money, nearly £20 for family of 4. Not clearly stated that this was in the main pool, which was too cold for our under 5's. We lasted 20 mins and had to get out because the kids were too cold. Thanks for nothing.

Stephen Bithell 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can't leave a review because I just walked passed the swimming pool...

Claire Thomas 2 years ago

Negative experience: Went to the kids pool. The whole building needs updating, especially inside. The changing rooms were dirty and showers far too hot for children. The kids pool itself was really cold (although a sign said it was 30°, it certainly wasn't). Poor "café" area (basically a hot drinks machine). With investment it could be a lovely centre, but it's really run down inside. Great that there were plenty of floats and pool noodles for the children, but other than that it's not great.

Michaela Hradilova 3 years ago

Negative experience: Go here multiple times a week. The shower area often smell like urine. Changing rooms are wet dirty and too hot. Often see stuff floating in the pool. People should really take better care as it's the only pool in town so why make it disgusting?

Lorna Morton 3 years ago

Negative experience: If you want to just do lane swimming then this centre is for you. Other than that it's not great. The staff here are quite rude. You can't book both the main pool and teaching pool at the same time. I wanted to book private lessons for my 4 year old but this centre doesn't seem to offer this when you book online.

Kevin Ayrton 3 years ago

Positive experience: Swimming lessons for our grandson

Chrissi Thompstone 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Popped in today as we as a family haven't been swimming since before COVID. It is very reasonably priced, with under 5s swimming for free. It's very easy to pre book your swimming time slot via the everyone active app. The only downside i can say is, if like me you have children ranging from baby to teenagers and you book to swim in the teaching pool which is smaller and warmer than the main pool, then that's the only pool you can swim in, your older children can't go off into the bigger pool at anytime

Positive experience: Only here for granchilds swimming lesson. All staff and teachers are professional and cannot be faulted my one problem is the cleanliness of the changing rooms

Upcycle Interiors Ltd 3 years ago

Positive experience: Decent size "deep pool" and separated warm kids pool. Think you need to book in advance but they may be due to covid-19. Playground round the back, viewing gallery, football pitch, snacks, hot n cold drinks machines. Changing rooms are OK but no family changing room

Mia Ismal 4 years ago

Positive experience: Staff was quite rude, but the pool was fine.

Positive experience: No way to opt out of promotional texts, even years after I haven't been here. A fine gym though, not too well equipped but good enough unless you're weightlifting.

Sophie Anstey 5 years ago

Negative experience: I go every Wednesday with my friends normally have a really good time. However went on Wednesday with my friends and the 3 of us have been in bed sick with extremely bad sore throats ever since unable to eat. This ocourd the night after swimming in the pool and have been told his could be because of the water in the pool so may not go back again

Rebecca Hallett 6 years ago

Negative experience: Honestly the worst pool I've had to swimming. So many rules inforced that no one could have any fun! The lanes took up 3/4 of the pool and as non swimmer can't go past a certain point the space they had to swim was smaller than the Changing area, having a non swimmer in out party ment that we could all swim around the area that was left after the lanes. Will definitely NOT be going back!!

Tracy Smith 6 years ago

Positive experience: Was staying in Weymouth for a week's holiday and managed to get a 2 week membership. V efficient and reasonable. Only downsides are the changing room floor seems dirty all the time and some of the male swimmers on a Monday evening are obnoxious and unsafe when it goes down to one lane.

Lolly S 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a lovely time here with my girls pool is very big. The prices are not to expensive so on a rainy day it was great to go here. We got here when they had lots of floats and noodles and beach balls in the water and the kids loved it. The only downside was the chlorine was so strong. The staff are very kind and helpful because there lockers only take the old style pound coin or a trolly coin which I never had so they lent one to me. The changeing rooms were clean and tidy though you have to pay to use the hair dryer which I don't have to do at my own local pool. The showers were lovey and hot did not want to come out of it. You get little cubicles with curtains that you can close to get changed but when we had finished the cubicle I went in the curtain was faulty so had to took it into the rim of the door frame so my curtain could stay closed. We definitely use this pool again when I am over that way because the girls and myself really did have fun playing volley ball in the pool.

Monkey Boy 7 years ago

Negative experience: No public swims available in the evenings since coming out of lockdown, its now November. If you freeze your membership note that they will renew it without notifying you. I got stung by this. Apparently the page where I froze my membership warned me of this, if only they got their pages to display and scroll properly on mobile phones I might have escaped unexpected fees. And maybe one day they will sort out the male changing area. Nothing like a wet floor to change on when leaving the gym.

Becks 8 years ago

Positive experience: It's ok. It's clean, it's a pool, temperature is usually ok but sometimes baltic. Changing rooms (which are the same for wet and dry gym/pool users) could be better but they're not the worst by a long way. Whole place is just a bit run down. Timings are fairly good except on weekends and bank holidays which makes so little sense to me.
