    This sports centre consists of a gym, sauna, a children's pool & a large pool. The centre was built…read morein the 60's or 70's & is in a bad state of repair. My children used to go to swimming lessons once a week & every week we went we'd find another problem. The spectators area has sky lights which are always leaking, the roof leaks, the tiles on the sides of the pool are broken & the changing rooms are not very clean. The gym is newer & was recently upgraded. There are plenty of different machine including bikes, rowing machine & various weights & toning equipment. The gym is fairly small though & is often busy. There are some drinks machines in the foyer but they are often broken & out of order. The staff on the whole are friendly & the staff who took the swimming lessons were excellent. This sport's centre needs some serious repairs & updating- such a shame the council have let it get in such a bad state.

    I've been a member at Scotchbarn for about a year now, and I agree - it's an old building and…read moredefinitely needs some (lots of!) TLC. however, I walked in yetsreday and there was a big display up in the reception area about the new centre opening in Huyton (Longview Drive?) which sounds fantastic. My membership automatically transfers to the new centre as Scotchbarn closes in September - okay, so it means I've got a bit more to travel now, but I reckon it'll easily be worth it for all the new things the new centre offers - I suggest you go and have a look at the info in reception and find out more.

    This leisure centre boasts an olympic sized 50m swimming pool, and a 20m swimming pool - this can…read morebe particularly handy around 4pm when the kids come in after school as they considerately split the adults and children. The centre also has a huge fitness centre, tennis courts, 5-a-side pitches, grass football pitches, athletics track, and resides inside The Mystery Park. Overall, it's pretty good value for money, the facilities are very clean and the staff are pleasant enough. What is the first thing most people want after a hard work out or swim? Usually something to eat and drink. So I suppose the only way they could improve is provide a cafe/restaurant instead of just your typical vending machines.

Lifestyles offer a range of membership schemes or pay and play options, which allows you to use the facilities. The first time I went, I made use of their 50 metre swimming pool though it's not as big as it sounds. There is a smaller pool section which is split up and more for beginners and younger children. At times, they will aisle the swimming lanes making it free from interruptions, which is always good whenever you have wild ones splashing around! It does depend on the time of day you go. Obviously at less peak times such as early morning, it's a lot calmer. If swimming is not your sport, the site does boast a tennis centre, sports hall and athletics park too. The techno-gym is also popular with locals. If anybody has used the gym, I would like to know what puts the techno into techno-gym! As a whole, this is a decent sports centre, very modern and well maintained. I would recommend it to anyone, as it's one of the classier Lifestyle centres in Liverpool.

    Excellent facilities and everyone is friendly. I've packed on a solid 23lbs of muscle but the…read morehardest things to lift arent weights but our feelings. The gym helps me cope with my divorce. Often I cry at the squat rack so if you see me just give me a moment please. I often tell friends when I turn up to coffee with my eyes swollen and red that someone urinated in the pool again but they know I've been crying again.

    As part of Liverpool Council's Lifestyles range of sports centres and gyms, you can see the money…read moreand effort that has been put into this place to bring it into the 21st Century and make it an integral part of the community. The centre has been here for nearly 30 years and was greatly underused except for the many football parties I went to as a kid! Now the gyms are kitted out with state of the art gear, there are regular fitness classes for all levels in the sports hall, two decent sized astro-turfs can be found at the front - and if they are not being used by the local kids they seem to attract a lot of 5-a-side - and a good size pool with sauna and steam room. I can't really knock the place because it is well cheap and is obviously doing a very good job at placing itself at the heart of the Garston community, however, this also measn that the place can be very busy at peak times and it is often very hard to judge when it will not be full of kids! The pool always seems to have school groups or out of hours swimming clubs. While this commendable they also seem to find their way into the gym and will often hang around - or off - much of the equipment! But there is a waterslide!
