Meadows Leisure Centre

Facilities are great, but I have been caught out a few times by the gym randomly shutting early with no notice.

The great facilities aren't much use when you are standing outside looking at them through the window.

Really needs to be open later on the weekends as well.

Without a membership you can use the library, and can take books home for a limited amount of time with a library card. However, with a membership (swimming or gym membership) you get access to a high tech gym with built in television channels, and headphone jacks with YouTube also included. With a swimming membership (or £4.50 for a swim without a membership) you get access to a medium sized pool to swim with friends or family, or just mess around. Overall, without a membership, you get a library, and for £4.50, a swim session. £1 is needed for a locker key however there is a locker key collected that gives you £1 upon return. Without a membership, I'd give it a 3.5/5, but with a membership 5/5. I you can shell out the money and live close, you should get a membership if you are interested in what I have described.

Each and every time I’ve used the pool during the last 6 months I’ve ended up unwell, including sore throat and heavy colds. Hygiene around the pool area doesn’t seem a priority.

Library staff extremely friendly and helpful. Great selection of books, lots of activities running for children

Brilliant swim even had two swim lanes. Very clean centre would highly recommend.

Great facilities but, the amazing staff make it. Always polite, professional and friendly. Ladies and gents on reception Gale etc are a credit to the place as are the personal trainers. Have to give a well deserved shout out to Phil, Dave and Sam who are so dedicated, friendly and knowledgeable. Met some really nice people in their also. I only hope those within the heirarchy appreciate all the good work carried out by all the staff, cleaners included who make it a great place to be. Thanks 👍😊. The only negative are, those lazy selfish individuals who, leave their equipment out. Obviously with the expectation that, someone will put it back for them. Makes me so angry. If you can't put the equipment away don't get it out. It's not down to the staff nor other users. Have some consideration 👊

Went for a swim here,really enjoyable experience. Staff were helpful and informative, fellow swimmers were very friendly. Will definitely be back👍

This one of my favourite gyms which is upstairs with sauna and a nice set of bicycles for pedalling and also a separate room for peloton type stuff. There is an impressive set of weights and body-building equipment that would give Arnie Swarzeneger a run for his money.
Down-stairs is lovely, it has a library and swimming pools, showers, and secure lockers. Outside there are other facilities including cycle track, five-a-side,
with great play area for the kiddies which is also great for mums and dads to work- out on.
