It's really nice. I go there for a swim & a sauna & I really enjoy it. It's relaxing & after a day at work or before I go to work, it helps to face or finish the day. The staff is very good & in February one of his members help me to become s member. It's a good price for a full membership, it gives you access to all that is on offer. Me, I'll stick to swimming & sauna

I have done yoga before 15 years and recently started Yoga at Gosforth. Colin’s yoga is mind blowing and the best I have been. Each day his routine is new and different types of Yoga. At the end of the each class he summarise kind of yoga we have done and which part of the body is worked on. I could see always people from from young to old. His way of teaching is catered from newbie to experienced , young to old. Thanks Colin and Gosforth Leisure Centre for a wonderful relaxing experience. My daughter is going swimming and she loves it. Please pay at the carpark even if someone says you don't have to pay. Check the pay machine always.

Fantastic staff, extremely helpful. I went in yesturday with my son so we could go for a sauna and steam room. I was unable to book in before attending but Doree the receptionist and the duty manager (unsure of his name) could not have been more helpful. Thank you!!

Pool is a nice temp but the showers won't stay on unless you hold the button down. I'm all for saving water but at least give 10 seconds between pushes

Great place for doing various things such as swimming and going to the gym, the swimming pool is quite big and usually quite calm however can be busy at times. The gym is made up of two decent sized floors which includes a huge variety of machines. Signing up has to be done online which is a bit of pain however it’s done due to COVID restrictions, altogether it’s a nice place.

Pool staff were attentive and kept an eye on weaker swimmers in the big pool, advising one child not to go beyond a certain depth. Reception staff were very polite and friendly. The pool and changing areas were clean, the water was a good temperature, and the showers were lovely and warm. The pool was not crowded, and also had two lanes for faster swimmers. I enjoyed my swim!

Nice little place for tiny ones to learn swimming. Teachers are good.. I would actually like teachers to go in the water with kids as my tiny one is literally scared of water but other than that... good place to start!

Nice modern gym equipment, pool, sauna and steam room. Spacious changing rooms, but a lack of private showers is very odd for a gym. You have to stand and press a button and the water pressure is so poor you might as well wash under a dripping tap! One member of the reception staff "Susan" is really quite rude in her manner of speaking and dealing with people. In a customer service industry surely being attentive, kind and helpful should be standard, especially when membership is far from the cheapest in the area. All the other staff are really helpful, but she is one of the first faces you see and frankly it could put people off.

Good facilities for weights and cardio. The swimming pool is spacious and there's a training pool for children to enjoy safely. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The membership is coupled with the other 'Better' leisure centres across the city (including Eldon Leisure).

Big swimming pool has some mould around the sides of the pool and I go swimming with my sister and even first thing in the morning it’s crowded, hard for people to swim it’s like an obstacle course dodging people who just go for a social visit and not to properly exercise. The lifeguards don’t monitor the swimming lanes properly. The changing rooms are big but lots of cobwebs on ceiling and one of the toilet seats were broken. There is not very much opportunity for me to bring my one year old nephew swimming, the times allocated specifically limited and not flexible.

It is a small community swimming pool. It have a 25m length main swimming pool with mostly 3 lines and rest of the pool with no lines. There is as well a small children pool. The pool is usually quite busy and you have to make sure that you avoid water workouts and school/clubs swimming as they take upon half of the pool;) The changing rooms are fine and staff is friendly.

Nice clean pool (25 mtrs). Staff are all really friendly. Only complaint I can say is that adult swim timetables are not always good for people who have to travel from their 9 to 5 job.

Went swimming there today for the first time and don't know what the fuss is all about with the other reviewers. Clean changing rooms. Clean pool. Discount card if you want to go swimming regularly. Was very happy. Quite quiet and friendly staff.

I am using the swimming pool every week day. The stuff are nice and friendly, the male changing are clean, the swimming pool is good and not too busy. It is a very nice and welcoming place which provides good range of activities.

Really good service and a really nice scenery of the pool it was very warm in the pool especially in the winter but there’s two things the changing rooms We are very very unhygienic And I think the pool floor was a bit dirty as well and they could not be bothered to clean it and I end up with a verruca would you have to wear a sock are very uncomfortable so I did not really in joyed that the fact that the changing room is not clean and so is the pool floor

s. p.

Could have been cleaner to be honest. Cobwebs and dust under machines. It didn't feel like a Covid cleaning schedule was in place. I spoke to staff and they were going to ensure it was improved.

Good leisure centre, I use the gym the most. Recently refurbished and plenty of machines for the amount of people there. Always kept clean. Staff friendly and helpful.

I like to be there, It is easy to book a slot on app, also not many people around, plenty of cleaning material, and sanitisers. I ve seen a member of gym going around n tiding the place.

M. W.

I did a Swimathon here for Marie Curie and take my kids swimming there too, the pool is clean and the showers always warm.. it isn't expensive and quite frankly is a great resource for all sorts of activities- including scuba diving lessons!

Facilities are quite good, nice and spacious changing rooms however staff can be quite rude sometimes and there is quite a bit of mould in the pool. Except for that, it is a very nice place

c. n.

I have been a member here for many years and seen a number of changes there, but the most recent makeover has completed transformed the facilities and brought it into the 21st Century - it has everything you need to keep fit and healthy, the staff are well qualified and very helpful, and it's great value for money - I love it!

No only online warning that the parking is pay & display (cash only). Staff at reception was really nice though.

Nice leisure centre. Small pool opening times and availability not great

Needs a good refurb to the pool but I find the facilities to be acceptable and I would return.

M. I.

It's a standard pool layout, but they add a load of toys to the baby pool, which goes down a treat!
