## What visitors say

[David Watts](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/115593245960665161489/reviews) ★★★★★

Great facilities in general BUT... There's usually something not working properly!... Never any info about these things until you've paid and are in. Pool never seems to be very clean and showers are often cold. Gym is well equipped. Staff are mostly welcoming but not always.

Quiet place if you like to swim over the weekdays. On Saturday, it's busy at 12, but after that, it's okay. No modern swimming pool, but I personally like it.

Great place to spend time with children on hot days. Great pool, and the splash pad area is fab for families.

Great pitch. Clean changing rooms. However paying for them was unknown when booking. To turn up and having to pay £17.50 each per team for the rooms after paying £125 for the pitch is ridiculous!! You need to be told when booking the pitches on the app thst you have to pay for changing rooms!
