Moor Park Health and Leisure Centre: Opinions

3.7/5 (132 Opinions)
Martin Hindley 8 months ago

Negative experience: parked in disabled bay with blue badge displayed. 1 week later got £40 parking ticket. Neither me or wife noticed any sign saying we needed to register the car registration. If there is one it needs to be more visible. Also, if staff were caring they'd remind people arriving for appointments.

Negative experience: Rude, untrained staff. Particularly the blonde haired girl with glasses who doesn't have a clue what she is on about. Avoid if possible, join a cheaper better gym.

_metal_pro_xd 1 year ago

Negative experience: ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED. Is the only words to describe this place, me and my mates have been coming for ruffly 2 months now and not had much a problem with it until it came to SWIMMING. First time I came I had a good swim and a fun time with pleasant workers second time around not so very good i came back for a second swimming trip where the worker had said my grandads ball he gave me was at the front desk, I went and my ball wasn’t anywhere to be seen as upset as I was I continued to go for a normal swim I had chose to play with one of their floats which gave me a rash and ripped because was in terrible condition then got told off for this when it was a honest accident me and my friends was then splashing with nobody near us at all and then got told you are getting kicked out because we told you too, then told that we are banned for the day and I could not enter the gym to sum up (if you are not elderly 50+ DO NOT COME HERE.) as younger people are much more attacked

Gary Hitchmough 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great place and lovely staff ❤️ Just look out for the lady in her late 60s swimming in the fast lane as your not fast enough she will be very rude to you! She has gloves and fins on and wants it all to herself so she makes you feel uncomfortable so you get out as you want to be a gentleman

Fantastic experience: Nice clean and friendly

Luci Small 1 year ago

Negative experience: I loved going to the gym.. But recently they've over sold memberships and you can't actually get a full workout in now. Would be in there over 2 hours just trying to do a basic workout. Swimming is hit and miss if you are allowed to use the pool due to lessons. Fed up of waiting around for machines. Probably giving up soon and going elsewhere.

Fantastic experience: Rang this morning,they got me in to physio the same day, excellent.

Alice Hale 2 years ago

Negative experience: Maybe its good for kids and gym, but as a medical centre its disaster. Have to wait months for an appointment. Weeks if you're lucky. When got with mental health team, they gave me a leaflet on how to learn to properly breathe.... I was mentally on the edge and they just told me to have a relaxing bath and do breathing exercises as if i wasn't fighting depression for 9 years now. The doctors are very rede themselves too. Always have a not so caring attitude and dont even start me on receptionists up in the glenroyd medical part... The rudest people i ever spoke to and always give you not so welcoming looks. Would never go back

Denis Wilson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Local swimming baths for beginners and experienced swimmers, lessons available Monday to Friday very handy for parents. Also includes a gym to keep fit, library, cafe, 2 doctors surgeries and chemist with 24 hours prescription automatic pick up.

Megan Hall 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: What a lovely dental practice. The woman on reception made me feel so at ease as soon as I walked in. Had a really bad experience at Whitegate health Center a few days ago after pinning me down and trying to get my tooth out they left abit In and this caused my hole not to heal up, Although it was not a pleasant experience the dentist at Moore park managed to correct this and managed to remove the bit left in, the staff are lovely at Moore park and the three staff that were on today were absolutely amazing so grateful for them.

Positive experience: UPDATE: Gym has been refurbished with brand new high tech equipment! Just sort the weights area out and the pool then it will go from 3.5/5 to 5/5 JUNE: 2/5 To start off with i'd like to mention that the staff at reception are incredibly friendly. But the gym and pool have been going downhill for quite a while now. The gym's equipment has been breaking down, there are multiple bikes with multiple issues, some completely don't work. The rope thing was recently replaced and it's now way too long for the room and in general. The handles are also too slippery and too big () The main reason I'm writing this review is because today I was zapped⚡️by the speed controller on the treadmill. Luckily it was low voltage so I'm fine. But it shows how a lot of the machinery is beginning to pose a serious health and safety risk. Oh and weirdly today I watched a gym attendant pour a full bottle of water down the bin. So I don't know what's going on with that. Obviously has no care for cleaning staff. With the pool, changing areas are often dirty, people wearing shoes can be seen walking around the changing areas. Parents don't watch their kids properly etc. Water is usually way too warm for Lane Swimming and doesn't feel clean. Especially in summer months you'll often find sand, used plasters, cotton buds and more. I'm searching for a new gym, I've got a driving licence now so I'm not restricted by distance in the same way. It's unfortunate. I've swam in many well kept outdoor pools in Budapest, some are contained within beautiful buildings over 100 years old. It's always a sad, depressing, shocker to see how things are done in this country.

Negative experience: The volunteer who signed us in for the booster AND the medical student who gave us the jabs WERE NOT WEARING MASKS. On December 19th in the middle of a wave??? Unacceptable. My wife has tested positive for Covid now and this is the only place we could have been exposed.

Goorney 4 years ago

Negative experience: The swimming pool has unisex changing rooms - really bad idea :-( , lockers are broken or don't operate properly, the shower facilities are hidden away from the changing cubicles. Nobody appears to be taking charge of the place. The place has really gone down hill since the last time I visited. As a lady I would feel very uncomfortable using these facilities.
