Biannual antique fair. Lots of dealers of exceptional standard (especially the silver dealer) well attended. Cafe was rather slow as if they'd not anticipated the event but the food when it came was still excellent. was good and not to busy Since the recent gym refurbishment the gym is better but there are still a lot of issues like a leaking ceiling, old kit, lack of staff, broken lighting, disgusting toilets, etc. The other facilities in the leisure are good enough. Too often the gym is not staffed and they let underage kids use kit they are not supposed to use because they don't police their policy. Has become rundown is cold the baby is warm Changing rooms not clean an lifeguards don't keep order in the pool People in all directions we don't use it anymore. In a few years it will be houses and flats Family here is great. Clean, plenty of options, and decent temperature water. Been here on many occasions. Changing rooms are nice and tidy and clean. Individual changing cubicles and cubicle showers are great. 2 small pools are fab for kids just starting out and learning and the big is great for getting in some lengths in the lanes or diving for a toy in the free swim area. Overall a lovely place to go alone for a swim or to take the family. Used both the and gym. The newly refurbished gym is well kitted out and has a good atmosphere. The lane is good but we try and go when there are fast lanes as well as medium lanes as otherwise you find that fast swimmers book onto the medium lane and then slower swimmers can feel pressured and forced out of the lane they booked. Gym for kids apparently! 100% avoid after 3pm on a weekday and just skip weekends. Large groups of teens utilising the equipment. A lot better gyms that don’t run gyms like youth clubs. I’ll take my £53 a month (membership cost is shocking too tbh) elsewhere. I hate this gym and only use it because there are no alternatives nearby. Gym is old and tired, with constant maintenance issues. Toilets reek. Changing room is badly laid out. Free weights area old and too small. Full of school kids milling around from 3:30pm. Don’t say you haven’t been warned. Nice pool. The ceiling in the showers literally fell down on us as we were showering! A huge crash and all the water shut off. I had to inform the life guard and when I spoke to the front desk about it they told me to report it on the app?! Toilets were clogged with loo roll (again, reception didn't/wouldn't do anything about it). Kids is cold in my opinion, compared to other pools we've been to, and my 2yo was shivering after 20 mins, depite wearing 3 layers incl a little wetsuit thing. Such a shame that the family swim times have been reduced and are often fully booked. These facilities could be great, but sadly they are poorly managed, and clearly falling down! Far too many kids just standing around or sitting on machines and not using them, recently underwent a gym refurb but there were still clear issues, leaks in the ceiling and so many pieces of equipment / machines broken and a lot without notice. Ended up cancelling the membership after 10 days, really unfortunate as it’s a local but I’d rather travel elsewhere further out!! I am very disappointed with the management and staff at this centre. It has supposedly won the regional of the year award. It cannot be for hygiene. You only have to go in to the gym and see that neither the staff or the majority of members wipe down the apparatus after use. There is one large sign near the gym entrance and only one very small sign in the gym reminding everybody to wipe down after use. If ever we have a health issue on the scale of covid or even a winter illness problem the may have to close. This would mean possible staff job loss and no recreational use by members. Please, please abide by the rules otherwise we may lose the facilities. I wanted to review the leisure based on the excelled customer service support when trying to sort out my membership. Chelsea was so helpful and so lovely on the phone sorting out an issue I had (the issue I had made myself not the centre) The leisure itself has been refurbished and has lots of classes to choose from. Would recommend! Super friendly staff but the gym is just average and overpriced. Simply is far superior and cheaper- worth the extra drive tbh. Plus EA are vile and only interested in making money out of the public. Avoid EA at all costs.
