  We recently joined as a family and have so far really enjoyed it. The gym equipment is very good quality, the Crèche works really well for us with our young children and classes are great if you don’t want to use the gym. We also use the swimming regularly. Although small, the soft play area is great when you have a 1 & 2 year old because you can have a coffee and a short sit down while they play.

  I’m a new member of the gym and have had a really positive experience so far. The team are all friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The PT session was particularly valuable, giving me more confidence and helping me feel comfortable using the gym facilities. The new spa is a fantastic addition, it’s a real touch of luxury and worth the membership on its own. I’m very happy with my experience and would definitely recommend it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  As a returning member to the club I'm very impressed with the renovations that have been completed. The club is very clean and well maintained and the staff are always polite and welcoming. The only thing that is worth mentioning is how busy the club is on weekday evenings. I understand this is peak time but sometimes the car park gets so busy you have to park on the grass verges! I think 4/5 stars is fair, its a great place to be, but sometimes just a little too busy.

  I am really impressed with the David Lloyd gym. It’s spacious and has everything you could possibly need, whether you’re a beginner or more experienced. The atmosphere is really friendly and non-judgemental, which made me feel comfortable from the start. As a beginner, I found the EGYM equipment especially helpful and easy to use. The staff have all been incredibly welcoming, supportive and happy to help whenever needed. Including a tour of the facilities and a gym welcome session. I recently went to an Ignite Body Combat class and absolutely loved it. The instructor was brilliant and made the class really enjoyable. The spa facilities are amazing and so relaxing, with plenty of space so it never feels overcrowded. I particularly love the different saunas and the outdoor jacuzzi. The food is great too, especially the smoothies! The indoor and outdoor pools are both excellent, and the shower/changing facilities are always clean. I always leave feeling refreshed and glad I’ve gone.

  I visited on a guest past on Sunday 17th May 26 at around 2:30pm. Things that were quite frankly very disappointing for a club that has just spent a lot of money on revamping… 1. The family changing room is tiny and was so busy it was not a fun experience changing my two young kids. 2. The tables in the cafe family area were filthy, quite a few empty but with dirty glasses and food and liquid spilt with no-one around clearing them. 3. If you are gluten free avoid eating here. The menu only shows what’s Vegan or vegetarian no key for ANY other allergens. The staff ask you when taking your order if you have any allergies and I said yes I am gluten free. They advised me to check the allergen menu for gluten, which is a QR code. I started to look and it is a list of everything on their menu and the ingredients, no way to filter what allergen I wanted to avoid. Everything bar a burger had gluten in. I asked the lady on the till what I could eat and she went and asked another senior member of staff. She came and asked what would I like, I said a salad of some kind. She went and asked the kitchen and all the salads have gluten in. There was no offer of anything being made gluten free. At this point I decided to leave and we went and had a meal elsewhere. I am really disappointed as I used to be a member so thought I would check out the new improved David Lloyd. I would not waste your money if you are a young family or have any allergens at all.
