Just wow! What a place to take the kids. So many things to play on and do, with reasonable price food and drinks. They also have an under 5's and baby/toddler area, and loads of seating. Tbh, I wish they did a half day ticket as 3.5hrs really wasn't enough. You can't really string it out any longer if you park there as the ticket they gives runs out 30mins before the ANPR parking allowance, which if you go over you'll be fined. The whole area has the anpr cameras, so not the fault of the hub. You could move it. But it's a bit of a walk from anywhere you could leave it.
Well, we nearly never went trusting the reviews but actually the pool is great , the issues i found were 1hr sessions so everyone trying to get changed before and after at the same time! No showers, lockers or hairdryers! Very annoying waiting, freezing with a 5yr old whilst and it wasnt even busy so heaven knows at peak times . The car park you have to pay for then get refunded , more arsing around , it did smell of wee in the changing rooms as others have mentioned but overall it was ok and I'd know in future to get out early and get there with time to get changed . I would go again though
As a leisure centre, it's completely awful compared to others in the area. Everything is bad compared to what should be for a leisure centre. There are two saunas - a dry sauna, and a steam room. I have been in more than 200 different saunas, and I'm telling you these are the most pathetic ones you can possibly find. I came after the gym and was willing to take a shower - UPS, NO SHOWER FOR YOU IN THE SAUNA AREA. Then I tried to use another one nearby towards the pool - UPS, IT'S LOCKED BECAUSE WHY NOT! They said it was because there were kids in swimming lessons, but there were no kids at all, just staff wandering around. I had to do my best to convince them to let me in to take a shower before going to the sauna. After asking where else I should go then, the answer was straightforward - I don't know, I don't care. Okay, good so far, so I took a shower and went to the steam room, which should not be called that because there was no steam at all and the temperature was not much higher than room temperature. Relax area they say. Then I went to the dry sauna, same joke as the previous one, no heat AT ALL. Even if there were, there are no cold showers nearby. The person who designed or is running this has not a slightest idea how a sauna area should be. The dressing rooms are moldy, dirty, and stinky. The only positive thing I can say is the gym was good in general, clean, and the equipment is in good shape. However, there are no dressing rooms next to the gym, and I was given a non-working pass and had to wait for someone from other members to be kind and let me in. Also, do not fall for the lies from them when they say the car park is free of charge because they pay for you. The ticket machine only accepts cash and DOES NOT GIVE YOU CHANGE! And what's worse, this leisure centre only pays for 1 hour and does not consider how much you paid into the machine. It's literally a pure scam scheme, and this was not mentioned. When I tried to solve it with the reception, they instantly became rude and constantly said it's not my problem, if you don't like something, go complain to the council. So, summing everything up, this is an awful place for people who want to have a nice relaxing day. There are many better options in the area. 2 stars save only for follow up call which means site manager cares about in one way or another and the gym was good.
A great leisure centre. I have only been to the soft play area of the leisure centre but it is great. The soft play is huge but it also does look and feel clean which is very important to me. There is a big sitting area to enjoy a snack and a drink. The toilets and cafe are clean and the staff are happy to help if needed. Overall this is a great soft play centre that I will continue to attend and I am happy to take my family there.
Whilst visiting family, we took advantage of our Gold Everyone Active memberships over the Easter weekend to use the gym. The reception staff helped sort entry glitches. The gym staff were friendly and helpful. The facilities are excellent, well maintained with lots of equipment we don't have at our regular EA site. We witnessed regular cleaning by staff in addition to wipe dispensers for people to clean gym equipment before and after use. We're looking forward to our next visit. Thank you Meadowside!
Filthy and not safe for babies. They’re hosting baby swimming sessions with only two baby changing facilities. I had to change my baby on a mat on the filthy floor. My baby is crawling, so as you can imagine, he was trying to crawl off the mat onto the dirty, black tiles picking up filth, hair and plasters littered on the floor. Your other option is sitting them on the skinny benches where they’re bound to fall off. The learning pool itself isn’t clean and in need of good repair. It was a very stressful experience trying to keep my baby clean and safe, and I won’t be returning.
Ryan & Reyhan were fantastic instructors at the Clip & Climb. Showed tons on patience with both my 4 year old son and I I'm terrified of heights but they didn't make me silly whatsoever!! And the little "help rescue teddy" game was a great way to encourage kids to keep climbing higher!! Will be going again for sure!!
The staff from catering and the hosts went above and beyond expectations. The catering staff catered for all food diets and allergies. I was asked when I wanted food and dessert for the children. The hosts were great in managing all the children and parents to the soft play and food hall. They helped carry gifts and extra things from soft play to food hall. The children all felt comfortable around them. All the staff helped make the day extra special for my little girl. I would like to say thankyou to them from the bottom of my heart. If anyone is debating whether to book for a party I highly recommend meadowside The stress is taken off the parents.
Kids love it. Great safe space to play. Refreshments available. Good value for money.
Not been to this leisure centre in years and the improvements are great!! Friendly staff, amazing new soft play area which my son loved and the clip and climb looks great. Will definitely be coming back here in the near future!!!
