Wavelengths is amazing now it's been done up. My nieces loved all the new water features, aswell as the waves. The big slide is still there too. A great place for children!
The recent renovations adding a splash pad area, activity wall and toddler slide are fantastic for younger children. My 2 year old was entertained for nearly an hour! The changing area is outdated, but due to be renovated in early 2026. My older children attend swimming lessons here and love the teachers and are progressing well.
Newly refurbished and great fun for little ones but water is way too cold. I have a 5yr old and he was freezing all the time. Wouldn’t take younger kids due to water temperature. Also, was very dirty near the lockers, in showers and toilets - especially the floor. Hasn’t been cleaned all day. Such a shame, don’t think we will go back.
My daughter is having lessons here and the swimming teachers are absolutely fantastic with the children. My daughter was really nervous when she started but they've been brilliant at helping her to build her confidence. The changing rooms are great with individual cubicles with lockers nearby. It always feels clean and welcoming.
Good fun but definitely showing its age. Grubby, rusty, smelly shower area, cracked tiles and grout in the pool - needs a lot of therapy. Having said that, the cafe is cheap and the food is reasonable. The slide and wave machine are brilliant fun and the staff are great.
you have to pay for parking, i cant remember how much but we got 3 hours for maybe £2-3. The changing room isles are very narrow and a tad inconvenient to be honest when you're trying to squeeze past other people. The floor just feels dirty, with even mud etc. there are lockers but again on very narrow isles. These facilities along with tables and chairs with drink and food served is all open plan with the pool itself. So again the floor just doesn't feel clean, as some people walk around in their shoes. I guess its nice for grandparents etc who want to join in on the phone vicarously but dont want to swim, so there's that positive. While we are talking about positives, the toilet i used was clean, and the pool has a section where you can walk into it from the ground, meaning little babies and toddlers can go as shallow as they want to. There are waves, which came on every now and then. It's at this point the lifeguards require the floats back, this is a good opportunity for the floats to be passed on to different people. We all know those people who like to hog floats tut tut. there is a slide which is very fun, but the rule was a tad confusing. Someone told my husband that my 7 year old daughter couldn't go down the slide by herself, however when i went down another time i saw children as young as 3 going down on their own without a parent... not sure what the rule is there guys. My last negative was that i couldn't see the showers, which i'm definitely assuming were someone, the floor was too yukky for me to want to walk around and find, so i decided to get out as quick as possible and wash at home. In all i think it was an okay experience
Took my 3 year old he loves going swimming and the floats and the waves. The changing rooms were clean as we're the showers. Would recommend going
Fantastic leisure centre right in the heart of the town. Activities to suit all tastes and the prices are incredible value for money. Loads of (free) parking and only a few minutes walk from public transport links. Most impressive was the friendly and welcoming staff, from the receptionists through to the gym instructors, they could not have been any more helpful and polite. My gym induction session was really well organised & delivered, the gym was very well equipped, everything I saw was clean & tidy. Look forward to visiting again, highly recommended.
Spent under £11 on 3 kids who spent 3 hours here! Staff are lovely and facilities are spot on too. Food was typical for this kind of place but not expensive. Definitely will be back
Visited the gym a number of times also applied for and received a 7 day free pass. Love the gym, has great facilities. The staff are friendly and hardworking. The gym is clean, spacious and has plenty of equipment for different workouts. The changing rooms are brilliant with plenty of lockers and good shower facilities. Will be returning for the gym definitely and signing up for a membership. The building itself is located in a prime location with plenty of car parking availability. Would definitely recommend 10/10
