1 / 2Ladywood Leisure Centre
📍 Birmingham, West Midlands
Community leisure centre with two swimming pools, air-conditioned gym, sauna, steam room, and on-site cafe. Pool pod, changing places facilities, and lifts to all floors make it fully accessible for all ages.
Excellent place. The staff are friendly and always smiling, it’s consistently clean, the pool is good, the gym is pleasant, and the sauna is always working. The only suggestions would be to add a water filter closer to the sauna, as people have to walk quite far down the corridor to refill their water bottles after coming out, and, if possible, to install a new ab machine
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for budget-conscious families who value attentive, child-friendly staff over premium finishes. Personal trainers here are genuinely good with children, making family fitness sessions enjoyable. Go in with realistic expectations about the facilities and you will leave satisfied.

“From the front desk to the facilities, the personnel at Ladywood Leisure Centre are exceptional. A member of the team who has made our family visits a joy and delight is Ms Rafia Bi, a Personal Fitness Trainer. She is patient with children and amazing with adults. This explains why families love working with her!”

“This gym is decent but I’ve attended better It’s spacious, has parking, and generally attracts a decent crowd. It has also pool for swim lovers.I can say I’m overall satisfied with my experience and training there. Okay, sometimes when it gets crowded, I think they could have a few more machines. But overall, I haven’t really faced any difficulties with my workouts. It’s a good gym and relatively affordable, especially considering it operates on such a large-scale project like this.”
