The staff at the entrance were friendly and efficient despite the fact that that the pool was temporarily full.The pool is not the normal boring rectangle and has an enclosed area for very young children as well as a 'Jacuzzi' section for when you need a rest. There is also a sauna and steam room for adults as well as a sizable flume for kids and big kids. Reasonably clean considering how busy it was. Recommended.
Great place to go,great gym and pool,always vry helpful,brill opening times
I've been going to the pool here with my kids on and off for many years now. It's changed. There used to be a whirlpool type thing which was good fun, but that's been closed for a long time. And the pool had an island you could swim round, endlessly playing a bad game of hide and seek. They closed that off. And you can't dive in the pool any more. Diving is now illegal. The new tube-slide-thing is good. It has lights inside. It's the best way to get in the pool! I used to swim here for fitness at lunch times but the water was too warm. After 50 lengths I would get out and dry myself, but would be so hot I would immediately sweat and make my clothes wet. Also I found the smell of the cafe next to the pool frying chips quite horrible, as I swam up and down like a maniac. I'm being unfair, this is a great, friendly, community facility. There should be more of them. The people here are great and we always have a good time. Just take your goggles. For sanitary reasons there is more chlorine in the pool than water.
My son and I go here to swim, so while I can't comment on the rest of the leisure centre, the pool offers a bit more than a standard rectangular one, with flume, a small bubble pool and toddler area, as well as a poolside sauna and steam room for the grown ups. The poolside cafe offers a pleasant spectating area too. The shower facilities are a bit limited and the pool water sometimes a little on the cool side (although the operator is working on that at the time of writing), but more than outweighing that is the understanding approach the centre's staff have for my son's special needs. We're very grateful for that.
Great swimming pool for the family. The pool is setup for casual swimming with multiple shallow areas for families with young kids. However more serious swimmers may find it lacking as the setup results in fewer lanes. The water slide I great as well. On busy days they may limit your swim time to 1 hour and 15 minutes.
