There's a great mix of shops, supermarkets, cafés, and other essentials, making it really convenient for everyday shopping. It's a real shame the local Post Office has closed, but I suppose that's a sign of the times. The car parks could do with a bit of an upgrade, and there can be quite a bit of litter from takeaway food. The introduction of ParkingEye is disappointing too—it takes away from what is otherwise a positive experience. That said, these issues don't overshadow the shopping centre itself. It's a great place to shop, with plenty of choice and something for everyone. Overall, a really good local shopping centre that I visit regularly and would happily recommend. · via Google [Matty Atkinson](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/110709257027605304058/reviews) ★★★★★ Great place, visited for a kids party during hot weather and was extremely hot! All kids were bright red faced and did seem very hot! No air con in the main sports hall which would improve the situation especially with inflatable fans running and constantly heating the hall up! · via Google [David Brown](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/107045844384108828447/reviews) ★★★★★ Not the best and not the worst. Changing facilities are good, as are the pools. Haven't used the gym, there's a tiny library in there (????) and a place that sells something you can put in your mouth. I hesitate to call it food. · via Google [Paul Edwards](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/116204137588021153980/reviews) ★★★★★ Badminton nets are very poor, they dont fit between the posts properly. An unacceptably large number of light bulbs are off in the main sports hall. Buckets all over to catch the drips from a leaking roof, riser rails hanging off the wall in the male changing room showers and a large number of locker doors are missing in the male changing room. Apart from those its a great place! · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x487eec7d740a88db:0xf38125fa55d85411!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Parkway Centre, Coulby Newham, Middlesbrough, TS8 0TJ [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=54.5244386%2C-1.2160279) **Category** Swimming & Leisure Centres **Guest rating** 3.9 / 5 (198 reviews) **Suitable for** All Ages **Setting** Indoor **Toilets on site** Yes **Destination** Middlesbrough [More attractions in Middlesbrough](https://staycation.co.uk/middlesbrough/attractions) ★ 3.9 (198 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.everyoneactive.com/centre/rainbow-leisure-centre/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [01642576621](tel:01642576621) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Middlesbrough **Postcode** TS8 0TJ **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9C6WGQFM+QH [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x487eec7d740a88db:0xf38125fa55d85411!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487eec7d740a88db:0xf38125fa55d85411!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487eec7d740a88db:0xf38125fa55d85411!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Middlesbrough Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
