Fantastic experience: Good leisure centre, good facilities

Taymer Mason 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I come here for squash. It has the best off peak prices I could find. I literally leave norfolk to come here. Staff helpful I bring my own rackets but they have lots of balls. The facility is clean and I hope to check out the gym soon

Ramon Marshall 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is a nice centre to visit. A lot of different activities available; I only visit to play squash though. There are 4 squash courts from what I could see. Rackets and balls are available on sight. There's also swimming, a gym for workouts, cycling, rock climbing and a soft play area for kids. I travel from Great Yarmouth which only takes 18-19 minutes drive. No need for a membership in order to use the facilities. I would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: water is cold, need to be warmer, I take a disabled person to do some water physio, when doing physio not moving to much, she feels the cold and makes physio difficult.

Nina Steer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: What great staff. I have recently joined the PAYG and booked to swim with one of my grandchildren and everyone was lovely. Love the snack boxes for children with a sandwich in. The young man who explained the booking system on the climbing wall was lovely too. Clean too. Water could have been a bit warmer esp as a teaching pool but definitely returning.

Fantastic experience: Kids dragged me there for a swim session. Had to register on arrival as a new user went through to changing rooms, which were clean and plenty of lockers available. Pool wasnt too busy, and was so relaxing to just swim a few lengths. Hope to go again soon.

Fantastic experience: Took kids swimming today, app was good and called beforehand to check availability. Helpful staff, reasonable prices and not overcrowded. Kids loved super deep end of main pool for diving! (3.2m). Changing rooms moved temporarily due to repairs but fine.

Fantastic experience: Very clean throughout, staff helpful and friendly, the 50 minute swim literally flew by so quick but all the children loved it and will be returning soon.

Sandra Hook 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I always have outstanding service at WaterLane. Their gym and swimming pool are open again after refurb & everything is clean and well maintained. The staff members there are lovely and knowledgeable. I cancelled my SLT gym membership to come back here after WaterLane changed ownership. I am very pleased that I made this choice. I can't wait for group classes to be allowed again...

Nicola Needham 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Clean friendly local sport centre. Great sauna & stream room area. Love how it is seperated off. Only problem I have is to many swimming clubs & teaching going on for me to use main pool. So glad they brought Nirvana's for that. Gym is amazing when you don't get groups of friends all gathered round using 1 machine for ages.

Leah Revell 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My child has swimming lessons here, and I'm a member of the gym. Staff very friendly, gym fun and not to crowded. Swimming tutors jade and Kelly are wonderful and supportive.

Steven Powley 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Clean and in mostly great condition. The parking is excellent also. The facilities are comprehensive and access depends on membership. We used the two swimming pools. The smaller one was very warm and shallow enough for the children to have fun. The larger pool was a bit cooler and great for actually getting down to some lengths. The lockers take a £1 coin so make sure you have one. On exit there are vending machines and a cafe area so one or the other could give you an emergency top-up.

Christine Chapman 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: We use the swimming club here and my daughter has improved no end. Supportive and nurturing environment that keeps her motivated to improve.

Eloise Furness 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: My daughter and I went there for the first time a few days ago, with my 2 year old granddaughter and 1 year old grandson. They both had a ball! So much so that we have decided to book their next birthday parties there.. We chose to take them to the soft play area, we only intend to stay an hour or two but was there the best part of the day, as our 2 year old was having far too much fun! We're going to be taking them swimming there on Tuesday as the pool looks spectacular!

Daniel Ward 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always well-maintained and friendly starts with a good online booking system and excellent facilities. Don't usually comment about the bathrooms but they are also immaculate

Ewan Fawcett 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Actually visited the spa within the leisure centre not the leisure centre itself. The spa is great, spent some time in the thermal suite, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi are all good. Also had a massage which was very pleasant, felt very relaxed afterwards. The staff are very friendly and good at what they do.

Christopher 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Waterlane has changed so much over the last 10 years it's almost unrecognisable. Lovely pools, 1 learner and 1 full size. Changing rooms are modern, heated floors and multi sex. Very nice gym that is always being invested in.

Clare donitia vecchio and Rocco 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've always enjoyed the atmosphere and very friendly staff ..you can go in an just do your thing taking how ever long u want or if busy not so long but every little helps. . Since its been refurbished and bar gone etc it's excellent. .

Laura Davies 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great place to visit well worth the money, staff are alway friendly and all round a nice atmosphere. I think it's disgraceful that there's a comment on here calling one of the lifeguards a "fatty" and how they don't feel safe in the pool for this reason, how nasty!!! if your small minded enough to worry about swimming when theres an over weight life guard working, there's always plenty more of them, theres also a babies pool you can use and arms bands for sale at reception .
