Nice pool. The staff seem like nice people and we're very friendly. Atmosphere was electric and it was an enjoyable couple of hours. I would recommend coming here for a swim
Friendly and helpful staff. Would like to say the new look at reception is a lot more inviting and a nice personal touch 🌞
I have only been once and think I caught them on a bad day so I'm not going to give lower than 3 stars. But I checked the time table online before visiting the pool with my daughter (2) when I arrived I was told we could not enter the pool for another hour as they had people doing lanes- fair enough. We went for breakfast and came back. (I didn't want to drive all the way home again as it is a 20min+ drive) when we came back we were then informed that unfortunately we wouldn't be able to swim because they had a school booked in the pool starting at the time we were told to come back for. The person who told me to come back apologised for his mistake but unfortunately my daughter was so upset. I did take her somewhere else to swim but by that time we only had 30mins there before I had to pick my son up at nursery. I just wish we had been informed of the correct time we were allowed to swim both online and in person when I arrived the first time.
Been visiting every week for kids swimming lessons. Really great pool, great swim teachers. Gets a bit jammed at lesson change over time, but only for a few minutes.
Another great Hambleton District Council Leisure facility. Staff are very friendly. Sessions for classes, gym and pool are at good times. You do currently have to book to attend due to restrictions
