This leisure centre is really overpriced. The facilities arent up to much and for the price its…read morejust ridiculous. An hour on the football court is £36 - I dont know how they can warrant a charge like that or the hire of some floorboards and literally no service. Plus there is no air conditioning and the place is like an oven. I was gonna start swimming regurlarly but found out its over £3 a swim, now I cant understand why that price is so high either? to swim every day works out at around £60 a month which you could get membership to a really good gym for that! All in all I do use the place just because I need to but if there was an alternative nearby I would go for it!

It is the most vile and horrific place I have ever been. The staff are nothing short of rude and…read moreobnoxious, especially the reception staff! All of which have a bad attitude! I have been taking my girls swimming for about a year now because of convenience and it never gets any better. The place is filthy. The changing rooms are disgusting, they are never regularly checked and I have not seen them cleaned once. On my latest visit (25.8.17) I had a member of reception be totally rude, a fitness team member scream like a banshee at me across the room because I walked through the barrier instead of the turnstile (a disgusting way to speak to anyone let alone a customer) there was wet swim nappies on the floor when I first went in the changing rooms. I took my girl to the toilet (also filthy) wet toilet roll on the floor in each cubicle and the entire floor soaked. When going back into the changing room to get dry I pulled the baby change down to dry my 1year old and 3 wet urine soaked nappies on the tray. Bins are totally sticky with hairs stuck on and full to the top. I was there at 9.30am. Clearly hadn't been emptied from the day before. I would urge anyone not to use this leisure centre and go elsewhere if possible.

An all encompassing leisure centre with a new multi million pound pool area. They cater for pretty…read moremuch every indoor sport / activity including squash, badminton, tennis, trampolining etc with all the classes you'd expect. They have 4 excellent gym areas, the Shokk (under 18s), private gym used for exercise on referral etc, the weightlifting and the lifestyle gym (state of the art equipment set over 2 floors- membership induction needed ) The pool area is a full size main pool plus a learner pool that has a suspended floor so the depth can be varied. A full range of swimming classes are available for adults as well as kids and of course Derwentside Simming Club is based here too for the more competitive or serious swimmer. The only let down is the bar / cafe area - there is a small soft play area - only really suitable for under 6 yrs - which now looks very tired and dated although the food is good and reasonably priced. The staff are all friendly and are happy to give advice on anything.

This sports centre is very basic although it does exactly what you need of it…read more Basically it is a big sports hall with 3 five a side football courts used mainly for leagues and competitions although the courts can be booked for private parties also. I have played both in the league and with friends and have never had any problems and it is well kept, its nothing flash but its more than adequate to meet the needs of a 5 a side match.

I used to use the SPA, but the one in Ponteland has been out of action for many weeks and still no…read moredate when it will re open.

Crèche!! After many many months of searching for a gym with…read morecrèche facilities I finally came across ponteland leisure centre. This is a great crèche for my two young children. The two woman that run it are fantastic, they really put you at ease over leaving your children with them to do a quick workout. You can see that the kids love it in there too, there's always smiles, singing and laughter when you collect them. (Also it's always a struggle to get them to leave because there having so much fun) I would strongly recommend this crèche to anyone who wants to leave there child in very safe capable hands whilst catching a couple of hours to workout or take a little time for yourself.

FUCK THE TEACHERS!!!!! They're always horrible and teach you the same shit that's not in the exam!…read moreFucking glad it's closing so kids can actually get a better education! That head teacher should be fucking ashamed of herself getting staff like that in! Do 1 thing wrong in class you're in isolation all day and not even get a chance, mrs robson (science teacher) took pics of the kids and threw their bags out the class room the stupid cow (she was a supply for a while then became an actual teacher then back to being a supply and now Idk if she's still there because I left ages ago)
