The 30 Best Public pools in Leeds

“My little girl started here after loosing her confidence at another swimming provider and all I can say is Roundhay Swim you are amazing!! Not only has she gained her confidence back but she’s learnt so much whilst attending and is becoming a great soon to be swimmer. The staff and owner, Zoe are brilliant and my little girls loves attending. The groups are small and each child is given the time and tutoring required. I can’t fault this place it’s the best and only negative is I can’t give more than 5 ⭐️ s.” or I would. Swimming is a life skill and this place is worth every penny spent. Thank you Zoe and team your great x Alice and her Mummy x”

“Nie ce local swimming pool. Very basic, nothing fancy. The price is reasonable.”

“We booked this in advanced as no bookings on gate, so happy we did, it was fantastic! We had 2 adults and 1, 11 year old with us, and couldn't recommend enough!! We turned up at 09:45 and stayed until 1400, the Q lake was super clean and facilities - shower, toilets and changing rooms all well kept too. We stopped off at the cafe on our way back to the car and had pizza and chips - delicious!!! Food was fresh and tasted yummy! Next time we visit we will most likely camp over as well to make a weekend of it. We will be back!!! Thanks for a great experience Pool Bridge Farm.”

“A lovely clean pool with a good variety of classes.”

“Lovely pool keep in really good condition apart from the changing tooms which need updatong”

“It was my first time doing aqua aerobics. Loved it. Excellent instructor, friendly and helpful people. Good price, so no luxury but basic showers.”

“Very good members-only Swimming Centre, there is plenty of free parking onside and good facilities inside such as lockers(you will need to bring your own padlock), a pram storage unit, soft mats inside the changing room, private changing units, showers, hairdryers and toilets. The staff are friendly and helpful and the new centre is kept clean and tidy. The Swimming Teachers are amazing and really do engage with everyone. My Baby really enjoys the fun classes and gets excited when she sees the pool. The pool room and water is heated and you can also bring along a plus one to sit and watch through the next room.”

“I joined David Lloyd and started PT sessions with Ana Ava at the same time. Having never joined a gym before, it's been so valuable to have Ana guiding me through and building my confidence. I'm 6 months postpartum an it's only been a month of PT sessions and I already feel such a difference and am lifting heavier than I thought I would. Ana is fab - she's encouraging without being too pushy, genuinely celebrates your wins and adjusts each session to what you need. I'd really recommend her!”

“Nice pool, relatively new, It was quiet around midday and we had the pool to ourselves, I forgot my shorts luckily they had some there for sale. There’s a café selling snacks and coffee…”

“For my thoughts read the review, not the stars. Pros: my partner felt really comfortable training at this gym, helpful staff, clean, good selection of equipment from techno gym, able to get a really solid workout, spacious, wasn’t overly busy when we trained at around 10 am Sunday morning, spa facilities. The cons which may be a positive to others, not a selection of different brands ie Atlantis/prime etc, for me the gym is a good mix for anyone that trains but doesn’t excel for bodybuilding, strongman but at the same time can get a really good workout.”

“The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was nice. The bed was extremely comfortable. The room was spacious and clean. Great location. Perfect hotel for a business trip.”

“Nice, clean pool. Cheap prices.”

“Booked for my daughter's birthday who is SEN, for family to come and for us to enjoy a private and safe atmosphere for her birthday. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Couldn't do enough for us. Clear instructions before our visit and on site. Everyone had a great time. Everything was clean and tidy. Not the first time we have been before and most certainly will be returning. Thanks again our daughter and family loved it!”

“This pool looks wonderful now. A bit different from the open air pool I knew when I was at school there 1954 - 1961. No filtration and water only changed when it was like pea soup! Happy days though.”

“Love this gym and since Everlast have taken over its just gotten so much better than when DW ran it (terrible before), new makeover for the gym had me a bit sad it was closed for a while but honestly it looks amazing now its been done, tons of new machines with wireless charging which is great for music. Great Gym and Great Staff at an amazing price - cheers guys & gals”

“Went with grandkids had 2 hour slot very good place would definitely go again”

“Absolutely love Aqua Baths I wouldn't go anywhere else the lessons are fun and instructive, the tutors are excellent and easy to talk to as well as inclusive the facilities are always clean tidy and excellently maintained and are welcoming not only to use but for parents like myself watching our kids lessons. The price point is also brilliant especially since the class sizes are so small which allows a more personal approach and builds a great trust between teacher and student. If anyone is looking for swimming lessons for themselves or kids or looking for a private hire pool i wholeheartedly recommend ABC swimming”

“Froggy legs is a fantastic swimming school. They have taught both my children to swim. The teachers are kind and caring, making the children feel at ease in the water. It's so easy to book and see the progress using the online portal. Thank you, Susanne, for being so dedicated!”

“Great place to swim . Absolutely love the views also it was so hot day that the water was so warm . Never ever heard any place you can swim in Leeds , but this truly is safe for swim . There is a group who doing full moon swim sessions at this lake which is interesting event. I did not try but probably will join. Absolutely stunning walk with birds and nature . Hiking possibilities with beautiful views . I will definitely come to see this beautiful place again . There is public toilets available and also cafeteria with amazing views .”

“An amazing swim club where swimmers are individually recognised for their abilities, and encouraged to improve their performance at a rate that is achievable for them. Fantastic staff, extremely welcoming and supportive. The club feels like an extended family!”

“Myself and a couple of friends went there for the first time, open mike night. Wow, it's so tastefully decorated, clean and modern, we felt very welcome, had a brilliant night. We'll definitely be going again, we've joined and became members to support the place although non members are welcome.”

“Daughter plays netball here a lot, courts both indoors and out are great, parking usually good unless it's a big tournament”

“Really good and well maintained park Offers boat hire , splash park and train ride Water refilling stations also available across the park Toilets available , lots of picnic spots too Parking is only £2.50 for the day, boat hire is £8 for family for 25min, train ride is 5 for a family of four There is also cafe that offers ice cream and all sorts of drinks Highly recommend”
