## What visitors say

[Rupert Fuller](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102994575389594139775/reviews) ★★★★★

As a visitor not knowing the area we were relieved to park in the small parking at the leisure center not realising that there is tons of parking all around the complex. Leisure center itself is nice and modern with friendly staff and a cafe. There are many other cafés and entertainments in the vicinity.

Clip n climb party visit. Really nice. Staff were very good. You are limited with food during parties, you have to order through the cafe attached to the centre. However.... The pizza they provide is a great size, hot and very tasty.

A really nice gym and pool in a fantastic location. Full credit to all the staff who clearly work really hard keeping the facilities in such a great condition. Adult swimming lessons have been great, highly recommend.

Ithink this is my 9th better gym in terms of space and equipment definitely top 3, nice clean modern facility with technogym equipment, dumbbells up to 40kg good mixture of fixed machines and plate loaded machines, good amount of cable machines, as well as good amount of cardio equipment. With and leisure centre health club it’s not just the Gym, here there’s a clip and climb, 5g pitches and a 25 metre pool really nice facility. Good job
