Splashland is an indoor swimming pool situated inside the Trecco Bay holiday park…read more This is a fun pool, with most of the features mainly suiting children and families. It is very busy during the school holidays and summer. The pool operates on a timed slot basis, and you are given a coloured band which indicates the start and end time of your session. The pool has a decent waterslide, a children's pirate ship play area and a separate toddlers area. There is a jacuzzi type bubble area where you can sit/lie which is joined to the main pool. There are two swimming lanes - sometimes roped off and sometimes not - which are fine for some relaxing swimming - but due to the size and temparature (Very warm) of the pool they are not really suited to serious swimmers. You can sit and watch the swimmers in a seated area, and there is a good size changing village, including family size changing rooms. There are aqua aerobic classes available during the week.

Lots to do for odler kids and adults - water slides went down well and lazy river was great to take toddler around. The waves also good. I had worried I wouldn't last that long with toddler but it was lovely and warm - air temp and water - and we stayed the whole time. Café food was as you'd expect - chips and nuggets etc - the place is a tiny bit dated and a bit pricey but to be honest, I would go again and it was as expected. Would recommend if in the area.

This is a lovely modern health club, located just off the M4 / A465 at Llandarcy Neath…read more I haven't been a member for the last couple of years, as the price of membership was just too expensive, but I did use it a lot when I was a member. It has all the facilities you would expect from a modern health club - gym, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, sauna, jacuzzi, tennis courts and much more. There's also a very nice restaurant, although it was a bit on the pricey side. There's something for all the family at this place. It's well worth a look around on one of their open days or just ring up and ask to be shown around.

The old Swansea Leisure Centure used to be Wales' most popular tourist attraction, getting way more…read morevisitors than even Snowdon or my school plays. They closed it down for a few years to buff it up and have reopened it as a 21st century waterpark. It certainly looks very modern, the gym which comes out of the front of the building is like a space gym and has incredible views over the marina. The 'waterpark' is not a huge leap from the pools and slides that were there before, they've clearly worked around the main structure - keeping features like the wave pool and the huge windowed walls which make it almost feel like you're swimming outside in warm sunshine. New additions include the 'river run' which is basically a doughnut of water with a strong current which whips you around it and three new slides. Two of the slides are quite boring and similar to the old ones. There is one new one which is amazing though. It's a rubber ring type affair, but instead of a relaxing float down to the ground you go at great speed UP and down the slide - that's right - UP. The water shoots you upwards. It's quite thrilling and induces mega weggies. There's a sufring machine too, but I think you pay seperately for it. There are cafes overlooking the pool complex. The changing rooms are fairly large and varied with plenty of lockers (£1 deposit). There's even one of those high-tech drying machines. There is now also a climbing wall, which looks very pretty and you can see it from the main foyer. I think it's part of the big play area (4 storeys!) that includes sports halls. However, it is a lot more expensive than it was in my day - £7 per adult for 2 hours just for the waterpark. You can get a family ticket for £20, or if you're a Swansea resident you can get a further discount and a loyalty card. The gym has membership starting at £25/month which is loads cheaper than in London.

We love the LC but don't visit as often as we would have liked to as it is very pricey…read more We take our baby swimming there so don't need to use the pools with all the waterslides and waves but are still charged the same £7 as people who use all the facilities which I feel is wrong. The changing rooms are fantastic and always clean and warm. The sensory part of the soft play is great too and our baby loves the bubble lamps. I would not advise eating the food in the Bistro as the steak is remarkably like shoe leather and the potatoes strangely like rocks. Nice staff though.

The reception staff are fantastic, I really feel that nothing appears to be too much trouble for them. The facilities on site are good, occasionally, I have found the water in the pool to be a little cool, but thats maybe me. The changing rooms are always immaculate and they offer good facilities, there are lots of hairdryers and it reminds me of a spa in there. The gym itself is well laid out and is a comfortable temperature for your workout, it has never been too busy and I have never felt that I have been looked down upon for my poor physique - whereas some gyms you feel uncomfortable. The staff are all really friendly and helpful and after your workout there is a really nice restaurant which serves really nice food and really tasty coffee.

This place should be better than 2 stars as it is and could be even more so such a good facility…read more The building is good and the facilities are great. The staff are in the main very helpful. However .... The signs asking people remove their shoes before going in to the changing rooms are ignored by many people so the cubicle floors of the changing rooms end up filthy. The staff walk back and forth ignoring the point and I have never seen them ask a shoe wearer to remove their shoes. So expect to come out of there with dirty feet. The pool is rarely at 50m and when it is it is often very busy. Monday and Thursday nights can be quieter if you aren't too tired to train at 10pm ... In the mornings and now at weekends many of the lanes are taken by the swimming club. Not an issue but expect the other lanes to be crowded and have people of varying ability in each lane. If you are a quick swimmer expect to be frustrated as you dawdle behind a breast stroker waiting for a safe moment to overtake them. The pool is regularly booked out for galas and swim events at weekends and the information/warnings about these events is very discrete or difficult to find so be prepared for Saturday / Sunday morning disappointment and wasted trips. The pleasure pool is mayhem. The lifeguards do a good job but expect to be kicked by other swimmers, by bumped into, swam over/into and come out feeling the most unrelaxed you ever will. As a venue for promoting healthy lifestyle this place surpasses itself. Not!!! For those who bother to use the benches to remove or put on shoes, there is a glittering array of chocolates and sugary drinks in four vending machines, ideally located opposite you. If you or your children manage to get passed them, there are more sugary calorie dispensers by the exit turnstiles and just in case you haven't managed to give in to the sugar, there are 4 more vending machines on the way out. Only the British would fill a "healthy" sports venue with obesity causing, tooth rotting filled vending machines. So, while you are trudging home in the dirty foot rot of other people from the changing rooms, you can comfort yourself with chocolate and fizzy pop to remind yourself what a healthy life you live!

There is a gym, sauna, jacuzzi and do all sorts of fitness classes too for quite a reasonable monthly fee. Swimming for adults is £3.70 and no time limit. Family tickets also available. The only downsides are that the changing rooms can be a bit chaotic and its always worth checking out whats going on before you head down because they often have events on at the weekend so you might not get in.

The pool is open pretty much 12 hours a day but the majority of that time is taken up by lessons, classes or lane-swimming. No fun for those like me who just want to have a bit of a splash around when the weather gets too hot. I tried lane-swimming and it wasn't too busy in the summer but during term time the pool is full of fish! It's very cheap though- only £3 and you can stay in the pool all day if you have nothing better to do.
