Now a member of the David Lloyd group, this gym boasts several facilities. It is one of Lancashires…read morepremier racquet's club. The gym facilities are excellent and there is a range of equipment and activities for everyone, including a full timetable of classes. We particularly enjoy the swimming facilities. There is a large indoor pool with clean well maintained changing rooms. There are steam rooms and whirlppol spas. The best bit for us is the outdoor swimming area. All safe and supervised with views of the canal. I can highly reccomend a visit to this gym and we have had a family membership for a long while which we have certainly had good value. Have a look at the website for full details.

The reception staff kept me waiting to check in and didn't acknowledge me or apologise for the…read moredelay. There were 3 staff behind the reception desk, they avoided eye contact and none of them could be bothered to say hello or explain what the delay was. Very poor customer service. It's been like that for years though. The gym facilities are quite good but poorly maintained and not cleaned regularly. There is chewing gum in the cup holders. Wash your hands after using any equipment. If you pay twice the price and go to Bolton Arena, the staff greet you, chat and the machines are cleaned and maintained constantly.

I joined the gym here a year ago and cancelled it in January when I decided to go elsewhere. The…read moregym facilities were fine, however the reception staff could benefit from further customer service training. After I cancelled my membership they continued to take money out of my account. It has taken almost 4 months to get my money back and then they are still saying they will not give me my full money back, which they have taken out of my account without my permission! In my line of work I would have given some form of compensation for the inconvenience because 4 months wait is ludicrous! Instead I am losing more money. I only live round the corner but would now willingly drive miles out of my way not to go to horwich leisure centre.

It is only a…read morecouple of pounds (although the last time I went I was a student) and a quick swim here in their standard 25m pool and there is easy enough to fit into your schedule whilst not requiring some direct debit out of the your account each month.. But if guilting yourself into exercise is more your thing they have a fitness suite too, membership to which starts at £18 a month. Then again those who like me are more into team and racket sports are served by badminton, netball, squash and basketball courts plus two football pitches. No frills leisure centre in a good central location and low prices.
