Shotts Leisure Centre features a newly refurbished gym and is a vital and central part of the local community.

Shotts Health Suite will be closed until further notice. Further to the closure for remedial works within the health suite at Shotts Leisure Centre our contractor has found further issues within the floor area. We are currently working with our contractors on this issue. We will update on progress of this issue in due course.

Shotts Leisure Centre features a newly refurbished gym and is a vital and central part of the local community. The new gym hosts the latest Star Trac cardiovascular and fixed strength equipment plus an extended free weights area by Cybex International. A brand new functional zone, including Battle Ropes, TRX, Powerbags and a Functional Frame, offers a unique and exciting way to work out in a group environment or by yourself.

The centre also offers a main multi-purpose sports hall, which can cater for 4-a-side football, badminton, basketball, volleyball, netball and a host of other indoor sports. Make a splash in our leisure pool with a number of water features providing fun for all the family. After a swim, relax in the sauna and steam room. With experienced staff, some of which have worked there since the centre opened and regular customers who have been attending on a daily/weekly basis for over 20 years you are guaranteed a warm and friendly welcome.

Our comment from FitFit UK about Shotts Leisure Centre:

Shotts Leisure Centre is an excellent community hub that offers a wide range of leisure and fitness facilities to suit all needs. Users appreciate the friendly and helpful staff who contribute to a welcoming atmosphere, making it a great place for families and individuals alike. The gym is noted for being clean and well-maintained, providing an adequate space for workouts, although some users have suggested that extended opening hours would enhance the experience.

The centre features a good-sized swimming pool that caters well to families and children, with many users reporting enjoyable experiences during their visits. While the pool may require some modernizing and maintenance, it is generally regarded as clean and comfortable, with perfect water temperature noted by swimmers. However, some visitors expressed concerns about specific maintenance issues, emphasizing the need for upgrades in areas such as changing facilities and pool features.

In addition to the swimming and gym facilities, a variety of fitness classes are available, which many users find beneficial for their health and fitness goals. Overall, Shotts Leisure Centre remains a much-loved local facility, offering a well-rounded selection of leisure activities for the community.

Despite the positive feedback, there are some areas for improvement, such as the need for modernizing certain facilities and addressing concerns about pricing for memberships. Enhancing the swimming pool area and improving operational hours could attract even more visitors.

Fantastic experience: After having a knee surgery and being referred to the gym by my physio it's not some I have ever done I'm not a gym type of person but I'm absolutely enjoying it and feeling much better every time I'm finished my session and it's really helping my knee get mobile and after my last visit to the physio she was really happy with how it's going

Positive experience: The staff are friendly, the equipment is clean, only downfall is the opening hours.. Needs to be a 24/7 gym like Pure Gym to let people come and go as they please. Also, the swimming membership should already be included into the £21.99 per month fee. Slash your prices, and more folk will be inclined to go.

Pat Beattie Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Swimming pool looking in need of modernising, with some broken or missing tiles showing. Sad that it's being let down like this as it is a cracking pool to take kids too.

claire mcginnis Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very friendly helpful staff, brilliant swimming my little girl loves it not too deep and warm

Luke Dwornik Published on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: Ok swimming pool for kids. Small, but nice and stuff is friendly. A photo attached of my phone capturing imageb when falling down from the locker.

Joyce Lafferty Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: I think the whole leisure centre is needing an upgrade and repair. One of the showers at pool side does not work properly. Some locks in the changing area dont work or are missing entirely. Tiles are off the walls in the area under the bubble pool. I attend every morning and most of the changing areas have so much water in them. Maybe they could be mopped on a regular basis. Certainly disagree with the rating. Think it should be maybe 2 stars at a push.

Positive experience: My girls Do there swim lessons here and the teacher is fab, but on the other hand the prices are crazy dear and to go a swim for 45 minutes it's way to expensive

J C Reilly Published on Google 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Quiet pool , clean

Alan Grimson Published on Google 6 years ago

Positive experience: Great place for a swim but South Lanarkshire pools are cheaper for family swim. Just short of half the price.

Matt McArdle Published on Google 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nice quiet gym facilities

Philip Schoultz Published on Google 6 years ago

Positive experience: Had a thoroughly enjoyable swim here with my grandson. Facilities were all in good working order and the pool was not overcrowded. Whilst I did not get to see the gym area I understand that it is well equipped. Monthly membership is recommended as casual use is rather expensive (said as a visitor whose currency is at 18:1 to the pound).

Crazy Burger Published on Google 6 years ago

Positive experience: Its ok, not the most amazing swimming pool, but functional for a quick swim with kids each week. Water isnt too deep which is good for younger kids.

Kevin Kirk Published on Google 6 years ago

Negative experience: Work collection, never used facilities.

Mac Published on Google 6 years ago

John Chisholm Published on Google 6 years ago

Zach Aitchison Published on Google 7 years ago

Positive experience: This place is very good for leisure but needs a bit of improvement on the building, it’s not very nice to look at so probably needs some shifting up

Darren Kerr Published on Google 7 years ago

Negative experience: Dirty dated place overpriced .

Louise Johnstone Published on Google 7 years ago

Positive experience: Had fun with grandkids in the pool

Ian McCully Published on Google 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nice friendly staff ,went into the reception paid for two to go swimming ,then went to the changing rooms which is for all. Then you have to go for a shower before going swimming ,you will have to have a token or an old pound coin for the lockers . Thanks for reading my review Thanks Ian

irene ventura Published on Google 8 years ago

Positive experience: Not the best in Lanarkshire but still good for the area, pool water temperature always a bit cold, small kids can't last more than 1/2 hour. Recently furnished gym and SPA, decent classes you can check them online. The jacuzzi needs a proper refurb water is not warm at all

Jimmy Lees Published on Google 8 years ago

Positive experience: Good leisure centre for area catchment...

XAFI Published on Google 8 years ago

Positive experience: Pool, sauna, steam room, gym, sports hall and aerobics room not bad for a wee town. It's not perfect, but it's great to have here in Shotts.

Jason Elliott Published on Google 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great community gym and pretty decent facilities for a small town. Friendly team who make you feel welcome. Classes are a great way to get fit.

Barry O'Kane Published on Google 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brilliant service

Julie Heraghty-White Published on Google 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love the fact that it is quite small and has different rooms so you don't have to feel self conscious with large groups. Staff and patrons are all very friendly and supportive. Wouldn't have managed my 3 stone weight loss without them.
