Absolutely clean with a very friendly atmosphere! At first, I was unsure about joining this gym…read morebecause of its location, but now I'm happy I did. Thanks, PureGym

I've been coming to this gym for around 6 months now and have to say I like the Pure Gym philosophy…read more- very simplistic, no padding and bringing you the cheapest possible deal they can. For £18.99 a month it's not too bad considering I used to pay £45 at peak time at Bannatyne's in Manchester city centre a few years back. All modern equipment and a massive warehouse type feel to it all, there's plenty of room to move around and feel like everything is quiet and available even when it's busy. With regular classes each day (download their app to book) included in the price, it's a really good deal if you actually go regularly. Yoga is £2 more per class though. Open 24hrs a day too making it a really handy and helpful if you live a busy life.

Decent little place, a proper place for a hard workout. I use this place mainly on heavy leg days…read moreand alsways come away satisfied. A new 'Old Skool' gym.....wicked!

I used to think that I could divide my friends between gym bunnies and those, like me, who detested…read morethe thought. I'm much more a fan of tennis, rounders in the park or a quick skip or so, all done ve-ery occasionally I might add. The Hayloft, for the few visits that I made (I never signed up, not a convert yet) was relatively painless. It seemed like more of a girl's gym and now has a hairdresser, yoga and pilates classes, aerobics and sunbeds proving my point. I literally couldn't even tell you what equipment I tried out. The treadmill and the rowing machine definitely. But anyone reading this knows more about what goes into a gym I'm sure. There were lots of scary looking black machines. That said, I got a good workout and the atmosphere was friendly as were the staff. If I were going to become a gym bunny any time soon this is where I would ... hop.

Nope. Not a fan of this one at all. I didn't feel comfortable here. It seemed too much was crammed…read morein one space. Their equipment is fantastic and modern but as a gym, I don't think it works. Once, a few of us ladies went for a whole day and had our makeup done, nails and hair. That was great but it was expensive! This is the bit I do not get. This business is positioned in a relatively small town so charging high street prices is a bit mean. It should be more for the locals instead of trying to be fancy and up-to-date. I can't see my Grandma going there for her haircut as the stairs are metal and too steep into the place.

I've been a member of this gym since it opened, and I have to admit that I love it. The trainers…read moreare the friendliest bunch I've come across, and are always willing to lend an ear. Honestly, it is smaller than the gyms that I'm used to but right now that's not an issue and it doesn't affect my rating of it. It's clean, cheap, 24hrs... secure. It's everything that I need in a gym!
