Fabulous place. The staff are all so friendly. Laura at Cafe Incredable was amazing to my wee girl who hurt her finger.

Decent enough centre with a lot of things on offer. however the disabled parking needs to be monitored. The amount of people I see parking and leaving their cars with no disabled badge is ridiculous. My mother is a wheelchair user and this is so annoying when trying to get her in and out of the car.

Great gym with a great selection of machines, multiple squat racks, dumbbells, sled track etc. Can be busy in the evenings but that's to be expected. Very good selection of classes available. The app is good for booking classes etc. Fantastic value for money

This was my first visit to the centre. I was very impressed. Such a lovely setting with the lakes outside for water sports and impressive indoor facilities. Definitely worth a visit.

Very friendly staff, clean, modern and the most beautiful location. Attending a meeting and the food was plentiful and extremely fresh. This was the best food ever provided at a meeting I’ve attended. Cafe food looked gorgeous too. Kids out on canoes etc from school having fun. Highly recommend a trip here. Photos don’t do it justice as there was no time to walk about - another time…
