J Training 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Went today to test it out nice gym not overcrowded at between 12-3 it's small but all modern kit with a mature bunch of members its very clean not so much of a bodybuilding type gym but it's got enough to maintain and build muscle if you know what your doing the customer service was good i plan on joining here in the near future after 3, I was told the local school bunch come in and gets a bit busy I suspect this is usually the case with most gyms anyway class timetable looks good and they do yoga an added bonus

Steven Parkes 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I took my 13-month-old daughter for a swim and highly impressed with the centre. Huge parent and baby changing areas (at least 4) with changing table and chair with restraints so you can get changed also, large lockers that I got a collapsible buggy in (make sure you bring a £1 coin but you get it back). A swim session is a small pool for babies / toddlers with walk down steps and a lifeguard less than a metre at all times. Families left bags near pool edge without issue on a busy half term day, but there is a cafe with a large viewing glass overlooking the smaller pool for parents that want to oversee (1 adult must be with child). Was nervous about the whole thing but couldn't rate it higher, and under 6 quid for me and free for my little one (check website for when kids pay) I would recommend to all parents hoping to teach their kids water confidence.

Michael Thompson 2 years ago

Susan raven 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Started back at the pool last week ,3 sessions so far and it's like I've never been away.all staff are brilliant and friendly. Great atmosphere.

Chris Cooper 2 years ago

Positive experience: It's a great little local leisure centre. With 2 pools; a large main one and then a smaller toddler pool, making it great for families. There are swimming lessons throughout the week, and fun play sessions. Upstairs there is a gym, and some studios for aerobic and gymnastic sessions. Near by is Northfield high Street with some shops for essentials and coffee shops for those wanting to relax.

Mona Taher 2 years ago

Rachel Pethick 2 years ago

Phil Walsh 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great for swimming and the gym; always helpful staff.

Loretta Ilaria Mancini 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Helpful kind staff, nice and clean changing facilities. We went for a family session in the teaching pool which is ideal for the younger kids since the water is only 0.7m deep in the deepest end.

Jenny Kemp 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Visited the leisure centre for first time today for a swim and the first thing we noticed was how clean it was and lovely layout. The staff where very attentive, polite and very helpful in guiding and supporting us especially myself as I am in a wheelchair so had a lot of needs and questions. My carer went free too. They have a chair hoist , a pod and shallow steps into the pool. The pod isn't working at present but least they had another option in place. The disabled changing room is directly by the pool and with the aid of a poolside wheelchair it made the visit go smoothly. The only negative was that the water was quite chilly and so was the changing room which caused a little difficulty as the cold affects me but I still award them 5 stars

paul 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great selection of kit in the gym area for cadio and weight training. Only been in the learner pool for a splash session with my son but it was good. Changing facilities are kept tidy and clean, helpful / friendly staff.

Lauren Fahey 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went here to do lane swimming, it was really good wasn't over packed, showers were great also.

Louise Burke 2 years ago

Positive experience: I like the classes here - although they often get booked up, literally check on the day if there is something you want to do, 4 hours before, there will be a space. I like the aqua aerobics, purely from a mental health point of view, the classes are incredibly relaxing and I sleep well. I wish there were more of them The negatives: 1) the car park is too small. Probably about 50% of the size it needs to be, the centre can't compete with the demands of parents and children doing swimming lessons and people doing classes between 4-7pm. 2) I went to a yoga class and it wasn't beginner friendly at all. I left after 20 minutes and don't think badly of myself for doing that. The instructors could try a lot harder with offering a range of moves and options between beginners and advanced practice. We don't all have to do the same thing, we just do what we can do and develop. You have to start somewhere but with an inaccessible class you can't. 3) Memberships! There is a £18 pm membership for FT students when paid upfront for 12 months. Its not advertised and not even the staff know it exists, just the membership manager. The lady at the desk was trying to sign me up to some £28 pm rolling deal. I'm glad I didn't sign up there and then and instead verified what I though the student package was

Ady Shroff 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I go to the gym most mornings and is good to train in I cant speak for other times but when driving past the car park is packed. I have been told the classes are good too. Staff are willing to help.

Jim Dolling 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My granddaughters are learning to swim here. The instructors are enthusiastic and the girls love it. Only downside is that the viewing area is too small for the parents, carers, grandparents etc

andrew oconnor 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great first time back everything is spaced out nice hand wipes spray and hand sanitizer every where, booked up on the more fit app and walked straight in loads of room and it's even better now as people who go want to use the gym rather then sitting on there phones trying to look pretty, really enjoyed it

Claire Johnson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been back at swimming since lockdown at Northfield and it has been great. Book online for an hour slot. One way system in place so exit is out onto car park. There are no lockers or changing rooms so all belongings left at side of pool.

Sarah 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very clean today with a nice pool temperature. The staff were helpful and lively. I loved the warm air as you enter the pool and the music playing in the background. The lifeguards were very vigilante but friendly in their request. Good job guys!

Anne Webb 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Superb staff highly recommend wonderful aqua fit classes run by Carole and yoga classes run by Jon. Very high standard of instruction and all the facilities are excellent only comment they need a wring extractor for the wet swimming costumes which are available at other swimming baths. This wouldn’t cost a lot l have mentioned this at reception and so have other people but nothing has been done yet

Rebecca Morgan 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great centre with friendly staff, good classes and great instructors. I live flipping body jam here! If I had to mention the drawback, it would be the size of the car park and the size of the class studio. Spaces in both are a little limited, but it is clean, new and very nice.

Lizzie Langford 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Really like swimming here. The place is really clean and life guards are always friendly... ashame about the reception staff though....I don't think I've ever had 1 of them say good morning/afternoon or even goodbye on leaving. The few times I've had to engage with them has been painful (especially when they talk to you as there rolling there eyes ) I don't no who recruited the reception staff for Northfield, but let's just say there customer service is NIL on reception and if you can get them to even look at you never mind speak....well then your a better person than me.! I've been trying for over a year now 3/4 times a week and nothing...it's the worst thing about the place...shame really as reception is your 1st port of call. Miserable girls/women ...not a good 1st impression. I hope they read this....they might all crack a smile now and again!!....maybe not

Fantastic experience: I love the baby splash sessions here. I have to take my 2 children on different days as unable to monitor both together but that's ok as always nice to attend the sessions and some days busier than others.
