As campervanners we often use public showers or leisure centres and this is, by far, the nicest we have ever used. Really lovely place to visit. Thank you.

I came in to rejoin the gym recently, on Sunday. The lady on the desk said it would be straightforward given my previous membership. It's not. I was a member from 1999 until late last year or early this year. There was never a need for a password. Now I'm being asked to create one for services I don't even use. I have ADHD and the chances of my being able to remember all the passwords I'm asked to have are very remote. I didn't complete that step and never received login credentials. Now when I try to register, the system tells me my email address is already taken. So I'm stuck: I can't log in because I never set up a password, and I can't register because the system thinks I already exist. The process is inconvenient and under the Equality Act 2010, as someone registered with ADHD, I'm not sure of your legal grounds here. I won't press the issue – I'm sure all sorts of other people would find new and interesting ways to make things difficult for me, and I realise this isn't your doing. I can never remember whether it's the Daleks or the Vogons who say "resistance is useless" but it feels appropriate here. As you can see, I managed to do it – after an exchange of emails wasting my time, and Abby's time. Not before being asked to reveal details I regard as confidential. And now I'll give you more of my time to try and

Pool is fine; shower needs upgrade but is good enough for now. Main problem for my wife, who is very short sighted and cannot wear glasses while swimming, is that she cannot read the time on the digital clock. Therefore I strongly recommend that you install a large analogue clock (like they have in Crewkerne swimming pool), please, so as not to discriminate again people with poorer eyesight.

I would like to acknowledge one of your members of staff who was working on the sunday 24th August evening. His name was Dan, he was such a helpful and kind young man. We had to stop to charge the van and get some fresh air after a long journey in our camper van with 3 kids and a puppy and imagine our disappointment as we didn’t realise 1. The car park had a hight barrier. 2, there was a no dog sign everywhere! He came straight over and opened up the barrier so we could change the van up and then he noticed the puppy and he was kind enough to offered his advice on a really lovely walk and it made our stop off such a nice experience! On returning from our walk he then was waiting to open the barrier again to let us out again. Please send our appreciation on to Dan and let him know we were very grateful

We were greated with a beautiful smile by a blond lady. That was really friendly and helpful:) The facilities were really good and clean. The toilets and the showers were really over the top and roomy.
