Public pools in Doncaster

“We visited the gardens on their charity open day. Have visited twice previously and on each occasion it has been a lovely experience. It is a beautiful place.”

“We were early so visited The friendly Library in the same building. Which had lots of activities & interest for children young & older. Then walked through to swim time. Great pool lovely welcoming staff.”

“I’ve recently joined and so far the staff have been incredibly helpful and friendly. I was struggling to find somewhere to take my children swimming on my own (with 2 non swimmers) and the family swim session on a Sunday is wonderful! I’ve also engaged in yoga and swimming classes and they have been brilliant. Highly reccomend”

“Very good pool with brilliant access. Steps and wheelchair access. Good changing rooms and lockers.”

“beautiful park to run and enjoy nature”

“It was amazing day out with the kids, I recommend it to everyone. Also contains big water splash area”

“This is an outstanding area of beauty, situated along the Don gorge at the side of Sprotborough Falls. I walk or ride along the Don on the TPT (Trans Penine Trail) quite often with my partner and the dogs and pass the Flash. It's a place that's beautiful no matter what time of year. In the summer this year we spotted the local king fisher. He/she was sat on a post not 20 yards away looking around with not a care in the world. If you're in the area be sure to go. After a nice walk you can always pop into The Boat Inn for a bite to eat and maybe something to drink.”

“Fantastic place to visit. Lovely walk around the lake, or in the woods.”

“A great fun place to take the kids or grand kids.”

“Helpful and professional staff teaching my girls to swim. They have a fantastic approach and would recommend the lessons to all little learners.”

“It's a really nice space, much used and very well cared for by the volunteers. I took my litter picker upper, aspiring to a place in the pantheon. There's also an excellent, authentic 1950s style café open in the mornings with all appropriate delicacies - Perfect.”

“Good place for all ages. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Cheap membership.”

“Amazing day from start to finish boys absolutely loved it .. Great weekend for camping Will definitely be going again .. We purchased tickets on the day inside on the tablets Make sure you sign your waivers before hand then there’s no waiting brilliant day so it you won’t be disappointed”

“OK so Hexthorpe is not the best area in Doncaster but blimey I was really surprised by Hexthorpe Park, it's beautiful, spotlessly clean, very well maintained and colourful, the birds in the aviary (cockatiels and budgies) are obviously very well looked after. I know there's a group of volunteers working alongside the council maintaining the park, so well done to all concerned. I now walk through the park quite often because it also boasts access to the Transpennine Trail at the side of the rowing club in the park.”

“Moved here from Everlast the week it reopened following the refurb. After a few years at Everlast we were fed up with the entitlement of the Hyrox crowd, the amount of filming going on and the amount of people training in large groups working their thumbs more than anything else tying up equipment for long periods. So far loving it, it reminds me of a mid 80`s gym, the staff are visible, friendly and willing to help without being too muck, following the refurb all the kits fantastic, there are young lads but they they are their to train and not pose and just get on with it. The music and atomosphere is lovely and calm (I`m sure being a strongman/powerlifter I should want angry metal but much prefer this) In more terms of the equipment, the trap bar is bang on the loading pins are nice and long in comparison to the one at Balby that are that short its unusable. There are only 2 racks but you dont often have to wait for one, they are a bit close together its all but impossible to load/unload at the same time as the other rack or when they are lifting. The Olympic bars are strong enough but not the best with no whip/bend deadliftings not nice on these and will probably end up bent over time but no one seems to do heavy shrugs and drop them on the rack.”

“I went for my Gym activation today. I was welcomed very nicely by the receptionist Katie Jack who helped me complete my direct debit details. Nothing was too much trouble for her she was very efficient and so helpful. My gym helper was Dave Cantley and he was brilliant. Being disabled I struggle to do things but he took the time to show me how each piece of equipment works, what muscles that it’s working. He took time to show me how to adjust each machine to fit my needs, he found ways in which the equipment could be altered to work with my disabilities. I would most certainly recommend this gym. The equipment is new, clean and tidy. The dressing room are clean and tidy. Their is also a disabled lift, which the receptionist will activate for you. There is a coffee shop in reception for tea/coffee snacks to go. Plenty of parking and disabled parking available. Thank you so much Armthorpe leisure centre for your support and welcome today.”

“We've recently visited to see a show 'Rhythm of the Dance' An ideal location and accessible for all including wheelchair users if required. Enjoyed the show which was suitable for all ages.”
