Welcome to Vivacity Bushfield Leisure Centre, a well-rounded sports facility located in Peterborough, United Kingdom. This center offers a variety of activities that cater to all ages and fitness levels, including badminton, squash, football, and indoor games. The staff is friendly and often praised for their helpfulness, providing a welcoming environment for visitors.

Many users enjoy the facility's clean and tidy spaces, and appreciate that it hosts community events like dance competitions and family-friendly activities. The badminton and squash courts are particularly noted for being well-maintained, making them a good option for enthusiasts of these sports. Additionally, the center is recognized for having a large playground and a spacious sports hall.

However, there are areas for improvement as highlighted by visitors. Some users have pointed out the need for better maintenance and updates on facilities, particularly in the changing rooms and sports pitches.

Negative experience: Website is useless. Doesn't send reset password emails or verification emails when trying to create a new account.

Negative experience: Grandson playing cricket here(visiting team) didnt open changing rooms till half way thru 1st innings visitors fielding 1st so had to get changed outside!!! Then no lights or showers in changing rooms afterwards. Dont go and play cricket there. Awful. Not worth 1 star

Ian King 1 year ago

Positive experience: Could do with air conditioning as a tad warm in the sports hall.

Simon Munns 1 year ago

Positive experience: Went to the lego festival event great

Leigh McShane 1 year ago

Negative experience: Played on the football pitches at the site and they are in a state of complete neglect! holes in all the fences metal and wood. Nets broken, 3g pitch is a shambles and the outer fencing has holes the size of a barn door. Considering the small pitch costs more than £50 an hour to rent compared to the yaxley 3g pitch which is bigger and in much better condition and a similar age is only £44 an hour it feels like bushfield are taking advantage of being local of it wasn’t for us all living close by I wouldn’t recommend using the facilities! If you have the means to use yaxley or even powerleague I would!

Positive experience: Venue is a Great Venue for Dance Competitions we went there a couple of weeks ago but I was concerned about the roof tiles on the inside of the hall tiles missing guards half hanging off ti name a few faults.

Pushpa Datta Upreti 4 years ago

Negative experience: I have been to this place for the third time to play badminton with my friends. Not liking from the first day! The outer space to the courts is narrow, difficult for people who are waiting to play or just watching game. Shower water temperature is NOT warm and pressure VERY LOW, takes ages to wash body! Their car park is also confusing. The main reason I am putting this review today is ️ I have been to this place today and played badminton from 7pm-8pm. I was in changing room and the staff switched off the light. I was shouting from the changing room and no body would response! I had to walk to the reception on my underpant. Otherwise they would have locked me inside and gone home! How terrible are they! In every leisure centre, staff shout 'anybody inside?' Or simply check in before closing! This isn't acceptalble. Instead me, if there was someone with high blood pressure or heart condition, the situation could have ended differently! I WILL NEVER BE A MEMBER OF THIS PLACE! Avoid if you can.

Barry Scott 7 years ago

Negative experience: Not very good, every time me and my friends have tried to book there, there has either been roller hockey training, and however there are always birthday parties and celebrations being held which I don’t find fair considering in the companies name it has the word sports in it and that it’s a sports centre but it seems parties are more important. So I find this very unfair how I do try book there a lot but there are always parties and I thought it was a sport centre.
