But it's definitely a case of getting what you pay for as there is a definite air of being upmarket and everything on offer that you could possibly want or need to occupy the whole family. Despite the freakish Northern Ireland spring weather, I went last weekend with my kids with guests of a friend who is a member, and we actually used the outdoor swimming pool. It was a very warm day and the water is nicely heated so it was a lovely experience. The kids loved it and I just wished it was hot enough to lounge on one of the sun beds beside the pool. There was an attentive life guard on duty to satisfy over anxious parents like me. The changing facilities are a treat too - warm and luxurious with great showers and nice toiletries. None of your 20p a time hair dryers here. There is also a shop where we bought swimming goggles and fit flops (I know, I know, I have a problem), a hair and beauty salon and a creche for under 5s. David Lloyds is the most luxurious health club I have used and I loved it. It's the kind of place I was born to use. Now all I have to do is talk the husband into forking out for the family membership fee.

Ive always liked the design of the pool, a big airy space with a wall of glass overlooking tree tops and sky. So many other similar places feel poky and claustrophobic (Cookstown pool being a prime example) but Dungannon pool is quite relaxing especially when you have it nearly to yourself over a lunchtime . It's a pity the diving boards were removed - I had so much fun as a kid jumping off the high board and learning to dive from the springboard! Health and safety nonsense no doubt to blame. Point deducted as the changing areas and showers are starting to get tired with a few missing tiles. Overall a great facility to have so close to my workplace.

The Antrim Forum offers a good range of leisure activities ranging from a large swimming pool, ten…read morepin bowling, football, running, squash, a gym, a spa and even a soft play centre at the back for children. It has been part of the Antrim skyline for as long as I can remember and it wouldn't really be he same without it. It is a rather ugly plastic building but the facilities it offers is excellent. For some reason, there are security gates at the entrance. The receptionists do open them if you want to use the public toilets but otherwise you will have to insert the card given to you for your session to open them. It is about a ten minute walk from the Masserene Golf Club, five minutes from Clotworthy and fifteen minutes from the Lough Shore via Deerpark Bridge. The close proximity to Antrim's main leisure and tourist destinations is good. I can't really find anything wrong with it - the only thing is that the bowling alley is quite small so everyone goes to the big one at Dundonald Ice Bowl if they want a serious game of bowling.

There are also swimming lessons for babys through the week that mums or dads or grandparents can take their child too to help them learn to swim get used to the water and mix with other children in the pool. Antrim forum also has lots of other activities to take part in and all reasonably priced and it is much larger than you might expect from a relitivly small town leisure centre. There is also a soft play area which is ideal to take little ones too they love it and burn off lots of energy. Also easy to get to by bus or walking or car.

Turns out it doesn't really open UNTIL people get out of school which sucks. Hubs took son for 40 mins in toddler time and he took it like a champ when we told him it was time to leave. Sister and nephew met up with us, nephew is anaphylactic to nuts and allergic to eggs, so she's always hesitant about places that serve food. This place was very knowledgeable and helpful with their menu, even offered to scrub down a panini press for her to be sure. The pool is a no photograph pool, and while I get it, there were no signs in the stands to tell me such and the woman who came to take my head off was rude and hostile - there's a right way and a wrong way to handle people and she was wrong. I'm not an idiot, I only took pictures of my son and his father, but don't take my head off like I'm a child - plus? Put up a damn sign. Good facilities though, book online during busy times!

The staff have the traditional bored look on their faces as a 6 year old runs past them for the second time with a massive inflatable ring to go down the same water slide they have been in charge of for the last six months. Children absolutely adore it. I even adored it. Good fun. Now comes the negative. They have unisex changing rooms. The 'cubicles' are lined side by side and after a particularly difficult moment on holidays one year in a different unisex changing rooms whereby a mobile was being used inappropriately and resulted in a cheeky wee so and so nearly getting a kicking from our entire family. Needless to say I have never been a fan of unisex changing rooms and this is the biggest problem for Lagan Valley. There is no problem with separate changing rooms for men and women. Unisex changing rooms lead to too much running about trying to find one that is empty and too much chance of getting into an argument... All in all, if they sort out the changing rooms, then it will be fine. Until then, I probably won't be back.

I was there to play football and having played at a number of different sports facilities I have to say that these were right up there with the best. The have 6 floodlit 3G pitches that are available to hire. There are also two full size 4G floodlit pitches. They have rebranded the sports pitches 'V36' and they have obviously thought about the logistics of the centre as it now comes with a refurbished car park. Great facility all in all and relatively cheap to hire in comparison with other pitches.

Back when I was young, the Valley was pretty dark and everything was brown or cream, but now the lighting's a lot better and you don't really feel like this is a place where joy comes to die. The slide in the pool was the main attraction when I was growing up, and it remains to this day. Beyond that, there are squash courts, indoor football pitches and rooms for classes. There's also a gym upstairs, which my brother is a member of and loves. Municipal gyms are some of the cheapest going and I think they're the best option if you're thinking of joining a gym. The Valley is also the location for many a children's birthday party and they provide a bouncy castle, so it's pretty easy for parents to organise.
