Public pools in Sheffield

“I think this was a bomb shelter . We were taking our morning walk but there was like a stream all down the path so we went into the grass and trees a bit and found this. It was pitch black so I took a few pics with the flash and couldn't believe how big it is and that there are at least 4 people sleeping inside!”

“Great to spot Squirrels and birds, been going here since I was little. Great for Picnics and Dog Walking”

“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.”

“Great place lovely staff grandson has lessons .. I started lessons 5 week ago to Improve crawl I could only do 4 x25 metres now 50 and feeling better overall”

“I tried circuits last night with Chris Whitty. It’s a fab class, very welcoming and no pressure to complete all the exercises! I’ll definitely be making this a regular class!!”

“Nice little park. They had some hula hoops and connect four outside which the kids loved. Would visit again”

“My daughter is enjoying her swimming lessons. She's always looking forward to her next class.”

“Somersall Park is a great family location with lots of space to picnic and play. The Hipper river flows through but is shallow enough to paddle around in on hot sunny days. Dogs love it here, too.”

“Went with the kids to kill some time and got alot more than we bargained for. Went for a walk around the cricket field, on past the cafe, toilets, and playground. Round the lake (unfortunately miniature train only runs during the school holidays so will have to go back when we're over next time) and back to the ice cream van. Headed up to another playground where they also have all weather soccer pitch. But to top it off for the kids, there was a funfair which was just opening, made their day. Watched some cricket before we left. Spotlessly clean. Suitable for wheelchairs and budgies. Plenty of space for picnics.”

“Great for children's swimming. Sally is a fantastic and enthusiastic swimming teacher. My 2 year old absolutely loves swimming here. I would love to see more parent and child changing cubicles in the future as it's a bit cramped getting dressed if they are already in use.”

“A wonderful green space in Mansfield. Immaculately kept. A popular cafe next to the Boules clubhouse The thriving boules club is amazing. Wonderful friendly group who are happy to include new comers With six terrains where they play in league games and competitions are very good. Long may it last. IThank you all for making my brother and me so welcome”

“Visited the soft play area with a friend and her kids. Really good value for money with the kids soft play and meal deal. Wasn't too busy considering it's school holidays. Play area isn't as big as runaround but it's good size and safe enough to let the toddlers play on their own.”

“Great place to walk round with dog”

“Most often we are here in the pool, but today we came just quietly to spend time with the children on the game. It's quite a good setting and affordable prices. There is a cafe and a toilet. Enough parking space .”

“Absolutely awesome gym/leisure centre. Brilliant facilities, always clean and tidy.”

“Still the best value & resourced sports venues, gyms in the city who else includes international sized completion swimming pool, state of the art in door track, boxing facilities, golf club, sauna, steam rooms, gyms, hydro pools masess of clases for adults school kids and where else could you be training and end up bumping into the likes of Anthony Joshua, Jessica Ennis,Amir Khan, and legendary trainers like Tony Melchellio, or end up in ponds forge training with the Sheffield Sharks”

“Nice park for a walk or jog plenty of open space to let a dog off if you have one free parking by leisure centre”

“Nice to walk along, fair short walk, small play areas for younger children, pond where people fish”

“Lovely woodlands with some hidden hideyholes for kids. There is a small park next to the parking, sometimes it's a bit messy after teenagers hang out but locals and visitors tend to help tidy it. Good access to Concord park. Has a decent running route and the dog really liked it too!”

“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”

“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.”

“Very nice place to take your dog for a walk”

“I go here to the gym 4-5 times a week. I like the equipment they have. It recently had a refurbishment in the gym, which has made a huge difference. I'm disappointed to see the plate loaded linear leg press was removed and replaced with a hack squat, but overall, I'm happy with the gym.”

“Went lane swimming today the changing rooms are good but the floors need cleaning more regularly. Good showers and there are a couple of hairdryers”

“Lovely place to take the dogs a walk and let them have some freedom”

“Definitely better than the 4.3 average stars it currently has. It's a touch tired in the changing room area but my daughter and I loved our visit on the whole. Something for everyone and every age group, our 1.5 hour time slot flew by. The three main flumes were fast and thrilling without being terrifying. The diving board area was good fun. Normal main pool with lane swimming section. 4 lane waterslides to race down. Definitely be back and we live an hour away, so I think it's worth the drive over.”

“Great little spot to sit and relax for a few.”
