Good pool and freindly reception staff. The problem is fast swimmers are going in the slow lane and swimming down the middle of the lane. They should be told to swim in the faster lanes, as it is not fair to the slower swimmers
I’ve recently completed my Level 1 swimming teaching assistant course at this leisure centre - can I just say all the staff, lifeguards and swimming teachers are all amazing and so friendly, all the facilities we used were always clean and tidy, and a big thankyou to all the teachers especially for making everyone on the course feel welcome and supported! ☺️
Claire was amazing with my daughter on her first swimming lesson. She went above and beyond and out of her way to help when she was upset.
Been coming to my kids swimmings lessons here for around 5 years. Parking has got worse especially through term times, even though it got extended. The higher up the levels your child gets they seem to have on less classes. My oldest is in level 8 and this has proven very hard as they hardly do any classes for this stage and the teacher she had at first looked like he couldn’t be bothered on his phone and was constantly just telling them to do laps. Not the best. Luckily the teacher has now been changed. Changing rooms is so full people leave their clothes in the changing blocks rather than in the lockers, so then you struggle to get changed as there’s no space. There’s no where to watch your child once they go into the big pool unless you stand around a tiny window in the changing room with 3 other people. If you manage to get a space inside when they are in the small pool it’s good, if not there’s tables behind the window but you can’t see you child as you’ve just got a load of people’s backs and heads who managed to get a space sat inside. I’ve been coming here for this long for the convenience that’s it’s the closest one to my home not for any other reason.
My son and I came for a swimming session on Sunday the 14th May. I had called ahead of time to check the training pool was a good temperature as my son doesn't like it too cold. The receptionist was very helpful even telling me what degrees Celsius the pool would be. As it was my first visit, I was given a parking permit to fill in and display in my car window. This was a lovely touch as I wasn't aware of the parking restrictions and the car park is much safer than the busy road the leisure centre is situation off. Inside, the centre looked and smelled very clean. The toilets were fresh and well stocked with toilet paper and soap. The communal changing cubicles were spotless and very pleasant to use. There are also ample lockers of various sizes which just require a £1 to lock up and keep all your belongings safe whilst you swim. When we entered the main pool, there are showers before you enter and a balcony where you can put your towels if you prefer them by the pool for immediate access after your swim. It was lovely to see a multitude of toys, floats and buoyancy aids in and around the teaching pool. My son took great pleasure in collecting all the toys and playing with them whilst in the pool and he said this sports centre is his favourite so far! When we left, at least 3 team members were vigorously scrubbing down the floors, lockers and walls with soapy water and you could tell that they took pride in their leisure centre and want it looking at its best. WELL DONE to all the team at Aston-cum-Aughton. My son and I will be back very soon, of that I have no doubt!!
Our kids had swimming lessons here for quite a while. Very good teachers. Good scoring system we could view at home so as we know what the kids needed to work on when we took them swimming. Nice cafe too.
Very nice pools clean place not very good for parking when busy but would highly recommend
Incredibly good way to get people into sport with the big sister program you get 6 months free to explore and use the gym or almost anything including sports clubs if you really are struggling on finding a good place to start exercise this is the perfect place the staff are nice so are the people you meet
