Bodyscene Health & Leisure Club

Negative experience: who ever is the owner and gym manager they need to pack in because they no good at running the place I pay £49 and on 15,1,26 at 7pm.i had to clean showers before I used them showers are drity everywhere is same sauna and steam full of body fat like showers needs sorting 16,1.26

Negative experience: Good gym but lacks actual gym instructors, update, its no longer good, it's bad and getting worse, it needs actual gym instructors on the gym floor showing people how to perform exercises safely and correctly, it's turning more and more into an internet cafe, leave your phones at home and stop hogging machines, update I've taken a star off as the new management at the gym seems awful, got rid of existing staff and put the gym prices up (for me it was 32%) after 20 years there I've left and gone to places leisure at Maltby

Negative experience: Very much in decline! Having only been a member for just over a year and seen two membership price increases I am now in the process of cancelling my membership. I originally chose body scene for it's competitive pricing, this is no longer the case since. In the past year all I have seen added for the increasing membership is 3 old broken rowing machines! Most of the equipment feels rickety, if even working at all and the general decor is in a much needed refresh.

Negative experience: Do not answer phones, website broken and barely working. Presume closed down.

Negative experience: I’ve been happy at this gym for about a year until the management and ownership changed, since then there have been multiple machines broken, no cleaning stations refresh, no hairdryers, cold showers, pool and jacuzzi and then they closed the private upstairs area where women would work out. Staff rude and not helpful, lied to as each staff member says something different. Now they are wanting to put prices up! I will be withdrawing my membership before this takes effect.

Negative experience: Probably won't renew after the 3 month contract. Staff are very friendly.... Gym equipment has a decent selection but it's just a bit run down in other areas. Shame really as it's the only local place with a sauna & steam room. EDIT: I have now cancelled my membership with immediate effect due to a 25% increase on the membership which does not at all warrant what the gym has to offer with the constant breakages of facilities.

Negative experience: If you like a cold pool, no lockers most of the time and a very unclean feeling this gym is for you

Positive experience: Been going on and off for five yrs the staff or so friendly and helpful I only use swimming pool sauna steam room for the price you pay it's reasonably it as had it problems but having good run at moment so all in all am happy

Fantastic experience: I swam here today 21/7/25 after joining the gym yesterday. The pool is a lovely temperature and wasn’t too busy at just after 5pm. The ladies locker room is really clean, plenty of lockers and the showers are great! Treadmills look pretty new although I’ll be using them later in the week. All in all a good experience and glad I joined.

Positive experience: Average gym, not a bad price. Quite small so just a handful of people and you're waiting around so generally quite limited. Staff are probably the best thing about this place, always friendly and helpful.

Positive experience: Came and used the spa and leisure facilities as part of a spa deals package. The facilities is quite weak in comparison to the spa as there is just a large pool, a sauna and a steam but as this is with the pool, it's not as spa vibe as for those gym members who use the pool. We went on a Saturday and the pool was filled with kids, but luckily they have a separate spa area and this really makes the difference. The spa area is nice, definitely better for the summer and nice weather than the winter. There's 2 relaxation rooms, a tea/coffee/water station with biscuits which is really thoughtful. Then there's an outside area where the hot tubs are and some outside seating. Luckily on the day we went it was sunny so we could sit outside on the patio. We only had a 25 minute treatment and wished it was longer, but that's what we had in our package. They like to try and get you to buy the products they use in your treatments on you afterwards as they have a stand where you can test the products. They do couples treatments too which is good. Overall would go to this spa again as maybe an afternoon or evening session compared to a full day. Would also recommend bringing your own flipflops instead of using their slippers as they're very skiddy

Negative experience: In the Last few Months the monthly payment has gone up whereas the whole place has gone downhill. Pool is always freezing cold, even showers are running cold now. Lockers broken. Changing rooms not cleaned properly! Starting to look really run down. Not worth the high amount of money that they have set the membership to. (Got an email today that the pool temp had dropped so much it will be closed till further notice, not acceptable)

Negative experience: If you’re looking for a modern, well-maintained gym, this is NOT the place for you. The lockers are often broken, leaving you with nowhere to store your belongings safely, and the showers barely work—when they do, expect a freezing experience. The sauna and steam rooms seem like relics from World War II—at least 75 years old, barely functional, and in desperate need of replacement. The gym equipment is just as bad—outdated, creaky, and well past its prime, making workouts frustrating rather than motivating. Then there’s the pool, which might as well be a glorified ice bath. If you enjoy the sensation of swimming in Arctic conditions, you’re in luck. Otherwise, don’t expect a relaxing dip. The only saving grace? The staff. They’re friendly, welcoming, and clearly doing their best despite the dire state of the facility. It’s a shame their efforts are wasted on a gym that feels more like a rundown relic than a place for health and fitness.

Positive experience: Had a nice enjoyable and relaxing spa day. Staff were very professional and polite. Overall good value for money for the package.

Negative experience: I’m a member ! I go for the social aspect! But the pool is freezing! Despite being told numerous times !!!!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Bodyscene for many years. Everyone is made to feel welcome. There's a wide variety of classes & the gym is not at all daunting for women. The swimming pool is a good size & rarely busy & the sauna & steam room are perfect for relaxing. The jacuzzi is cold though- be aware.

Negative experience: Staff are lovely. Pool is a great size. The swimming pool and facilities are run down and in poor condition. Hygiene and maintenance standards are lamentable.

Positive experience: Nice welcoming atmosphere. A little tired but clean. Pool cool but that's better for swimming, not sure why people are moaning. For the price you pay I cannot fault it.

Fantastic experience: Been using the pool now for over a month Really enjoying it yes is cold as you get in but once swimming it’s perfect The steam room is good too Staff are friendly and the changing rooms are clean and tidy

Negative experience: I've been a member here for 5 years, and I only use the pool. Unfortunately the pool is freezing cold, and has been since before Christmas. I find it unbelievable that it hasn't been sorted out by now despite being told repeatedly that they were working on it, it's starting to look like the temperature has been lowered to cut costs

Positive experience: I joined this gym 7 years ago and have attended in different 'spates' over that time as my enthusiasm for exercise ebbs and flows. My main reason for attending is Swimming, with some specific weight training on alternate days. Unfortunately had had a 3 month period from June to Sept last year when I couldn't attend as I'd broken my leg, and on returning noticed the pool temperature was significantly lower than it had ever been. I gave it three or four visits thinking I'd hit it on a bad day, but it was definately colder, beyond the point of being tolerable. I stopped going and have recently decided to cancel my membership. If I'm honest I was having second thoughts, and planned to use the remainder of my cancellation period to try it just once more, (and may do so yet). However, I thought I was alone in thinking the pool was cold and although I've raised the issue with the staff, was lead to believe that it wasn't any colder than before and perhaps it had been a one off. Now I've checked recent reviews and I'm not alone at all - seems the general consensus is that the pool is unpleasant now. You do warm up when you're swimming, but not to that extent. I can't see the point in reversing my cancellation if that's the case. I'll have to look elsewhere, which is a shame as I love the location and layout etc of the gym and pool. But I want to feel comfortable when I exercise and that can't happen when I'm feeling cold and shivery.

Negative experience: I recently joined with my husband for 6 months & have unfortunately been a little disappointed and ended up not renewing. On the plus side the staff are all really super friendly and helpful. It is very reasonably priced. Everything is spaced out well and it is of a very fair size. There is also loads of car parking and I have never found the gym to be too full to be unable to get a workout done. However, on the negative side; 1: no working lockers in the male changing rooms 2: the jet pool is cold 3: the pool is cold 4: there are missing tiles around the pool 5: everything looks a little worn-out and tired 6: no circulating air so can be quite smelly To sum up I really feel if it was given a refurbishment, if the pool area was updated, if the spa pool was converted into a hot tub with jets and the aircon was fixed this could be an amazing gym and I would rejoin in a heartbeat.

Positive experience: Can be hit and miss with hygiene. No male lockers that secure yet.

Negative experience: I have been a member here for 11 years. And unfortunately it has been suffering from a lack of investment for a few years with things steadily worse. The aircon has been broken for a few years and just circulates cold air. Instead of it being kept at a ambient temperature. The owner has been on the rooftop to look at it but it hasn't been fixed yet. The area around the steam room and the Sauna are looking very tired and need refurbishing. And the showers haven't been very warm for a few weeks. Members deserve better. The gym is of a good size and the staff are all very friendly. But there doesn't appear to be any evidence of any electrical appliances being P.A.T. tested in the coffeehouse the Gym or changing rooms. It,'s a shame Because this was very well run place 20 years ago. I enclose photo's of lockers in mens changing room. No doors on a lot of the lockers you luckey if you find one that has a key. New ones are promised but when? No one has given a date yet! .

Negative experience: Lovely staff but as others have said, the pool is too cool as are the showers. The changing room area is looking very tired. The gym is ok but some of the machines look quite old. It's not a really expensive gym so you get what you pay for but a warm pool and showers should be a minimum requirement. I cancelled my membership.

Positive experience: Pool was cold and I have been told this has been an issue for some time and members have complained but nothing seems to have been done Iwas really disappointed as I moved from Bannatyne for that reason and having been a previous member of bodyscene was expecting a lovley swimming experience in a warm pool but very disappointed and cold

Negative experience: The pool is freezing and paint falling of ut needs updating

Fantastic experience: Great place to train. Staff top notch!!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely spot on!!!! Gym, swimming, steam room, sauna and jaccuzzi today! Feel like I've had a fab spa day!

Fantastic experience: Great gym & pool with sauna,steam room & jacuzzi included my wife was paying more than the price of this at our local pool for 2 sessions of aquafit a week everything is very clean with helpful staff

Fantastic experience: Recomendado!!

Fantastic experience: Great health club with Gym and pool area.

Positive experience: Friendly staff and plenty of equipment I'm the gym plus pool sauna and steam room. Changing rooms need a little TLC.

Positive experience: Pool open all day with no restrictions/sessions for Gym members. Some parts look a little tired, odd tiles missing in pool, broken locker doors, but there's always soap in the dispensers in the showers and the staff are friendly and helpful. Slightly smaller than the local public pool but very rarely crowded so you can get a good swim any time of day.

Positive experience: I have recently ended my membership here after only 3 months. The pool is lovely and much more relaxed than other gyms (not just lane swimming). The changing rooms have been updated and are spacious and clean. The gym area is small and there is no air circulating meaning as soon as you walk in it smells unpleasant. I was most disappointed with the classes (apart from Yoga which was good). I did the Zumba and Pilates classes - neither instructor spoke to me prior to the class starting even though I hadn’t been before. This was a concern seeing as though I am recovering from some injuries and they didn’t check this/provide any adaptations. The instructors gave very few instructions and didn’t offer help throughout the sessions. A lot of the classes are timetabled during the day which means there is limited choice if you work full time.

Negative experience: Clearly, the money for maintenance is being spent on something else. Gents changing rooms are disgusting, with locker doors hanging off and visibly dirt caked air vents in the showers... despite this being reported. Off to join another gym.

Fantastic experience: Love this place very clean nice staff

Negative experience: Pool has dirty marks round the edges on the tiles, like a dirty tide mark round a bath, it needs a good clean before it gets worse and people stop going. Its looking very run down and grubby, it needs a good overhaul.

Positive experience: It's OK staff seem fine sanitisers empty paper towels empty shower gel empty poor changing facilities good gym equipment poor it seems to for gender and fisability

Negative experience: i left because the equipment was old and rusty, everything was old and tired, Absolute joke i wanted to cancel my gym membership so i sent an email in to the email address that was given over the phone (they gave it me incorrectly wasn't till i checked id still been paying over 18 months paying membership) i called up they said they hadn't received the email so i checked and found out it was wrong i haven't used the gym once within the time i thought i'd cancelled and forwarded the email to show them and they wouldn't issue me a refund

Fantastic experience: Love the pilates...pool and gym experience. The staff are helpful and friendly.

Positive experience: Went to enquire about membership. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Decided to become a member. Will post later when I've used the facilities. Hopefully it will be enjoyable

Positive experience: Lovely little health place. Im a member for the swimming which is perfect for my needs. It could do with updating though, changing rooms and sauna.

Positive experience: Some of the staff have a terrible attitude, especially when they start cleaning up around the pool 20-30 minutes before closing time and make members leave 15 minutes before closing!

Positive experience: Ready for a fresh look but love the gym n people

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff

Fantastic experience: Love hellaby Hall. I just don't go as often as I should do to make use if the fantastic facilities they offer. The spa is wonderful and the beauty treatments amazing and value for money. Staff are great and helpful and it feels like you are having a lovely little spa day when really just at the gym

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out and have a swim,friendly staff ,only been a week but happy with things so far

Fantastic experience: Just rejoined after lockdown, lively

Fantastic experience: Just became a member with my disabled partner what a breath of fresh air staff great gym well layed out really disabled friendly a huge thank you

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a well equipped gym that caters for both those intent on a serious session and those just interested in the occasional workout then this place is definitely worth a look. There are a number of classes and a decent pool with extra facilities to also tempt you to dust off the sports kit and get you back to your pre-Covid routines. The atmosphere is relaxed and cleanliness is a definite feature. The location is pleasant with ample parking and a nice courtyard to relax in post workout. My lasting impression was the friendliness of the staff and their genuine interest in making your visit as enjoyable as possible, Kerri was exceptional and took time to explain everything and was very welcoming. Returning to the gym or trying it out for the first time can be both daunting and intimidating, those wanting to avoid such dilemma should definitely try Bodyscene Leisure.

Fantastic experience: Great gym..friendly staff..never too busy ..very good value compared to nearby gyms.The pool /sauna/steam room is very good.

Positive experience: Great gym. Good equipment and no pressure. The staff are excellent and so friendly. Nothing is to much trouble. Love it.

Positive experience: On arrival and then reading some reviews my heart sank. I believed I was going to be in for a disappointing spa weekend. But overall I was pleasantly surprised. It seems that the management have actually listened to what their customers have said and have taken action. Spa Facilities here are nothing to write home about here unfortunately. Its basically a swimming pool with sauna, steam room and jacuzzi on the side. They were having trouble with the boiler so the pool and jacuzzi were quite cold and unpleasant. The reception to the spa was also a little ‘chilly’ and a bit unorganised. If you are looking for a pamper weekend that you would get at a spa resort then maybe this isn’t the place for you. The treatments that we had from the two therapists were outstanding however and deserve recognition. I would even consider coming back here on that alone. So well done to them. We had a facial and Indian head massage and then went on to have an additional pedicure because we did not want it to end! Food Hotel food was super. I cannot say how relieved I was. Being a foodie this was important to me. Past reviews suggest otherwise but I can honestly say the food is very very good. I guess its something that may have recently addressed. Room The room was very spacious. Some markings on the furniture and bedding were noted but overall me and my Spa partner were very happy. Modern bathroom with shower. Room 24. Would probably request the same room again if I was to visit. Look out for Wendy in the restaurant. A quirky unique character as hard working as you will ever find a person, like a shire horse. Very good communicator and excellent customer service. Worth singling out. Overall a very positive experience. Spa reception and facilities could have been better but other than that spot on.

Positive experience: Lovely spa day. Good food and beauty treatments. Very well organised would go again.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities here but my body wasnt seen in there

Positive experience: It's not been great recently but I think things are improving... I couldn't recommend it at the moment but I think it's going to be better...

Positive experience: Friendly clean

Negative experience: This gym as slowly gone down hill. If it wasn't for the lovely staff it would be awful. The heating has now been broken for at least a month and it's been freezing . Shame.

Positive experience: Enjoyable social, clean in majority, overall the gym equipment just about ok.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of the gym for over a decade and have always been impressed with the staff and facilities

Negative experience: Hotel is a dump. Damp in the rooms, rude staff. Always a mess with reservations :(

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service the staff are very friendly and helpful

Negative experience: My rateing has gone down because we have lost a good Zumba teacher one of best we have had been a member since bodysense opened think way Zoe was treated was wrong not be same without her so very sad

Positive experience: Helpful staff if you need it, plenty of varied classes, some of the equipment a little tired but nice to be able to use equipment as it's never too busy. Nice pool, top sauna and steam room.

Negative experience: NOT A NICE PLACE TO BE. the place has changed its like they no longer want the average person there. I'm 18 stone a bit chunky and that's what you go to a gym for but the new staff look down there nose at you if you do not fit to there NEW image they are trying to get i feel uncomfortable there now. its a shame because this place used to be such a great place. a lot of staff have changed and the whole atmosphere of the place has gone. I here there are new owners and a new manager really don't like what they are trying to do. gyms should be for normal people as well as fitness freaks don't push us out because we don't look the part.. on a plus side the pool is great and love the new sauna and steam room.
