The water slides are not only exciting but also well-maintained, providing hours of fun for families. The soft play area is a safe and engaging environment for younger children, making it a perfect place for them to burn off energy while parents relax. Additionally, the gym is stocked with modern equipment, catering to various fitness levels, and often has affordable membership options. Overall, the combination of activities ensures that there’s something for everyone, making it a worthwhile investment for leisure and fitness in the community. · via Google [Michelle McManus](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/118360878816618541759/reviews) ★★★★★ It's a great shame as this could be a great facility. Not a very welcoming place, we found some staff unhelpful. Big flume not open due to lack of staff (staff member said this when asked) in the Easter holidays with swimming full of kids 🤷🏼‍♀️. No seats at the swimming viewing point which was frustrating as my elderly mother came with us to watch her gran kids have fun. It really needs a good deep clean and upgrade of paint etc. No films on in the cinema during Easter holiday🤷🏼‍♀️... again just doesn't make sense. Hopefully the council will upgrade this facility and put the money into it that it needs for the community. · via Google [L Ackiem](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102525081038942592493/reviews) ★★★★★ Cheap and cheerful! Great for rainy days when the park isn’t looking too attractive! Pool is good, cafe nice and wee soft play is ideal 👍🏼 · via Google [Carolyn Deeble](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/110606631434204168745/reviews) ★★★★★ Good leisure centre, with swimming pool, sports hall, soft play, and a cafe. Hall courts can be booked for a hour (well, 55 mins), at fairly standard prices for non-members. Unfortunately the hall roof had leaked a bit following rain and heavy winds, but staff were quick to put down warning signs and mop up where possible. · via Google ## At a glance **Address** Fairhurst Road, Stranraer [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=54.8996200%2C-5.0252011) **Category** Swimming & Leisure Centres **Guest rating** 4.3 / 5 (241 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 0-12 **Setting** Indoor **Destination** Stranraer [More attractions in Stranraer](https://staycation.co.uk/stranraer/attractions) ★ 4.3 (241 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.dumgal.gov.uk/ryancentre?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [01776 703535](tel:01776703535) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Stranraer **Plus Code** 9C6PVXXF+RW [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x48623a4b1a0d252d:0x2e826bab89e49e19!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x48623a4b1a0d252d:0x2e826bab89e49e19!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Stranraer Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
