Fantastic facilities for the local community, staff couldn't be more helpful, fun sessions for all ages with balls and floats 10:00-11:00 and 11:00-12:00. Free parking and we'll sign posted. Highly recommend!

First visit here due to poor facilities in Shrewsbury. Staff on reception were very friendly and helpful, I took time out to explain about my wife's condition and staff here were accommodating. Emma, the duty manager was extremely professional along with her team. Cheaper pricing than other baths...Overall, well worth a visit.

My daughter started going swimming lessons here about 5 weeks ago. She absolutely loves it. Staff are friendly and although facilities are basic, it does the job. I also signed up to a membership which is well worth it.

Took my daughter here today for the tots swimming session, its a lovely little pool, nice and warm and the changing area is adequate enough. I haven't used the gym facilities but from what I've seen it looks great for a quick workout. The staff were friendly and the place overall is great.
