Affordable clean and friendly. The Saunas and steam room are dated but work fine. Though replacing the wooden decking in some areas of the sauna would be preferable. I'm guessing there is no budget in place to do this yet. If you had a tiled steam room there would be more seating available. Friendly, good standard and seems well run by staff . Needs a few minor upgrades to make it even better, but good value for the membership fee Swim teacher was grand, let down by very cool and appalling showers and toilet facilities Ok, a one star review, several years on from my original review. First off, there is absolutely no problem with the staff here, they are generally friendly polite & helpful, however, there is a marked absence with gym staff…. The amount of MALES dropping weights on the floor or letting go of heavy cables and the subsequent crash are among my pet hates, & absolutely nothing is ever done about it. The problem is certainly ‘post pandemic’, & associated with the current cost of living crisis. Machines are either invariably rested’ or out of order. I would also say that IMO, it’s a major Health & Safety breach to keep lights off in the gym on a late February afternoon…. Even the front automatic portal doors have been shut off. These cut-backs need to be reflected in the price of membership. Personally, for the money I’m paying per month, the membership isn’t worth it. One star. The and changing rooms are just too cold. My children's lips went blue. It cost us £20 for a 1 hour swim for a family of 4. We would travel further next time for a warmer pool. I've only used the centre for the and I have always been satisfied with that facility, the temperature is good and the staff are friendly. Unfortunately the changing facilities do need to be improved with a number of cubicles having no working locks and one recently had a door missing and a shower curtain was put up in its place. A number of times I've been into a changing cubicle and found wet mud on the floor where people have worn their muddy shoes in - There are signs up about this, but people don't seem to pay attention 🤷🏻‍♂️ Great gym, with modern swimming and coffee shop. Decent changing rooms, very clean After a few months, I cancelled my membership to this gym. If you're employed and work 9 till 5, 5 days a week - don't even bother looking at the classes. The majority of the classes are scheduled during the day, so unless you're unemployed, work part time or are retired, you won't be able to attend the classes that YOU'RE PAYING FOR. The classes you can actually attend are generally very good, just a shame you only gear them towards those are free during the day. The swimming is a joke, they have three lanes (slow, medium and fast). The slow and medium lanes are filled with older people who want to walk up and down the length of the pool. So if you do want to swim, you'll have to go in the fast lane, where you could be getting in other people's way or you'll be playing "dodge the walkers" in the medium lane. Clearly, there's a demand for slower-paced swimming so the gym should accommodate them and provide an extra session, instead of expecting those who actually want to swim to be held up. The gym itself is mediocre. There is a range of equipment, some it is broken and the some people won't bother to wipe down the equipment after using it. Besides all of the above, the gym staff are fantastic and always very helpful. But Freedom Leisure/North Northants Council clearly don't have any interest in listening to their customers. The gym seems incredibly geared towards towards people who don't work 9 till 5 everyday and you'll be paying a lot of money for classes that you won't be able to attend.
