Great staff, very approachable and supportive. It’s a place I’d recommend to anyone. The gym experience is great for anyone including beginners, with all the support you can’t feel out of place

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with mixed swimming abilities who want a single venue with both shallow entry for beginners and deeper water for confident swimmers. The beach entry is genuinely beginner-friendly. Check flume and wave machine operational status before visiting if those are the main draw.

⏰Arrive well before peak sessions to secure a parking bay
🎟️Confirm flume and wave machine are operational before making a special trip

β€œThis Gym and swimming pool is housed within a building that used to be part of the old Pollok Centre now replaced by Silverbum. A fairly decent facility although I have only used the pool, but the gym looks well appointed. The swimming also has a flume and a wave machine and does swimming lessons.”

β€œCame to swim with my two children. The card machine was not working. I was advised by the young man at the desk to wait whilst the manager came to help resolve the issue, being reassured we will definitely be able to come in. Waited 15mins for the manager to arrive (rude lady with red curly hair) to be told there was no way for them to take payment, and to drag my children and our things to the shopping centre and look for a cash machine and come back. Really poor customer service.”
