Really expensive here now. Over £7 for an adult swim?! Will try some Leeds pools instead, starting to feel ripped off at Eccleshill now.

11th Nov 25. Went with the wife for lane swim at 12pm. 4mins to 12 the unfriendly battle axe on reception told us to wait in foyer....spot on 12 let in, changing rooms stinks of sewage and freezing. The swim itself in slow lane was chaotic. Geriatric torpedoes that should be in a faster lane making it difficult for us slower people, all the while the life guards didn't care of pay attention. Very upsetting experience 😢.

Its such a good pool honestly. Plenty of space. I think the only thing that is quite a bit of a turn away is the children. Ones whos parents arent telling children whats safe and whats not. Because there was a group of boys when we visited, who kept cannon balling off of the diving board. Had been told multiple times not to and yet still kept doing it. I understand you go for fun, but parents, its also your job to keep your kids safe.
