Ripley Leisure Centre

Avoid this place, they use Parking Eye and I fell victim to a £60 fine. I tried getting it cancelled through the leisure centre, who said they cant do anything. I then appealed against the ticket and showed proof that I was attending a basketball session, which was unsuccessful. I wont be returning here, what a joke!!!

Clean and welcoming but the gym facilities are stupidly overpriced when you consider it's by far the smallest gym in town yet charges much more than anywhere else. The flexibility of using Heanor/Alf is nice but doesn't outweigh the daft pricing.

Gyms okay, small but busy. Unfortunately, despite being a member of the gym and entering my registration number into the system, I have received two parking fines from parking eye. I have proved my membership and asked the gym to provide proof that I scanned in and was using the gym the exact time I was parked in the car park but I was still charged. This is just frustrating for me as I am tied into a year contract at the gym yet it’s costing me £60 to park in the car park.

Took my 4 year old to a birthday party there. Bouncy castles on the basketball ball court and Party Tables in the adjoining room, cup of coffee whilst watching my lad try to injury himself for an hour, then they all stuffed their faces
Not sure about the sports facilities... not been swimming in years, you can see the learner pool through large windows and it looks good, planning on taking my lad there when i can talk him into it (it's scary apparently) covid stopped the early swimming lesson plans.

A solid gym for being outside of a large city. A number of a membership options with an option to pay £7 for a single drop in session though you need cash for the parking lot which is £0.50 per hour.

Training pool was cold and no change facility inside cubicle for baby, as advertised online.

Visted today for a party. Lovely staff on reception.

Staff always tell you the wrong thing. We have gone swimming here twice and the first time they didnt even book us into the baby pool even after specifically saying "right all booked in" and the second time when booking the baby pool we asked if the big pool would be open and they said "yep the big pool will be open". When we got there the big pool was open and we had only booked 2 in for the small pool (there is 5 of us) wouldnt recommend unless they sort this out
