Great Show, great venue!

Great. Had Covid vaccination no problems. Great set up and organisation, all the staff were lovely. Good experience but wouldn't want to make a habit of it.

Excellent Leisure centre with great parking and restaurants nearby.

Here today for my booster vaccine, all the staff are fantastic and I was in and out in no time at all. All these people are doing a brilliant job during these strange and difficult times

The gym has been upgraded and I love it. But please don't go here because I prefer it when it's quiet but it's busy now they have had a refurb but still my fav gym.

Great venue for roller skating.

Friendly staff great to see the children with parents or teachers enjoying themselves. I'm over sixty and go swimming and use the sauna twice a week (small fee). The swimming is free for over sixties which is a bonus. No complaints from me.

Staff very helpful, especially when using gym equipment which was all new to me.

Only ever used the swimming pools there (there is three pools, the main pool, a leisure pool which has a little jacuzzi and baby slide also a mushroom that sprays water, and a third pool which is usually used for swimming lessons but not too deep and always really warm) the gym looks good though alot of machinery and weights etc. They also do sessions for adults and kids. There are also squash courts indoor football and tennis courts etc

One of the best leisure centers I have been too. Amazing facilities. Amazong price. Love the place. The staff there are outstanding and friendly. Love it.
