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.
Shotts Leisure Centre: Opinions
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.
Fantastic experience: Great for a walk
Fantastic experience: Grate for leisure or fitness
Positive experience: Staff are very friendly and helpful. The swimming pool is good but more for kids. Funny shape for swimming lengths
Fantastic experience: My son attends here for a Taekwondo class. The staff are always so lovely. The place is well maintenance and clean. The times we are in the pool always looks busy too. A great thing to have in the community.
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.
Positive experience: Went swimming, very friendly staff , perfect sized pool for out family. Wasn't the cleanest but was definitely not filthy.
Fantastic experience: Perfect temperature in the water. Very nice staff on reception.
Fantastic experience: Great staff and clean facilities

Negative experience: Went n could get into swimming ...shut in 10 min... could get into sauna....folk want a swim after sauna..total waste of my time n petrol
Fantastic experience: Very friendly helpful staff, brilliant swimming my little girl loves it not too deep and warm
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.
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.

Fantastic experience: An excellent leisure centre

Fantastic experience: Quiet pool , clean
Positive experience: Great place for a swim but South Lanarkshire pools are cheaper for family swim. Just short of half the price.
Fantastic experience: Nice quiet gym facilities
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).
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.

Positive experience: Good wee leisure pool good health suite But as i said WEE.
Positive experience: Had fun with grandkids in the pool

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