Hillsborough Leisure Centre

A very nice family leasure swimming pool. it looks and feel much better / refreshed after months of maintainence and refurbishment works. it was worth to wait.

I absolutely love hillsborough leisure centre! i do fitness classes and use the gym. the gym is well equipped and always clean and tidy. there is a great range and number of different classes to choose from. the instructors are all genuinely lovely and i always feel welcomed and supported by them. the whole place just has a really nice, relaxed, inclusive and friendly vibe. so much nicer than other gyms that can feel intimidating! i would highly recommend it.

The hillsborough leisure centre leisure pool was recently closed for quite a while for refurbishment. we have been there for the first time after reopening and albeit it does not look like that much changed, it looks like it had a good clean and a bit of a revamp with some new paint jobs and some new water features in the children's area. the leisure pool has a deep area with a couple of lines for swimmers and a deeper area for good swimmers who still want to have some fun with the wave machine generally operating at least once an hour. there is a shallow area for less able swimmers with a pirate boat with slide and a baby area with play features. there are two big slides. one quite fast fine slide and one slow comfortable wide slide. there are some waterfall features, water buckets and splash features. the water temperature is good and there are ample changing rooms and lockers. be sure to have a pound ready to use in your locker. this is returnable. there are hair dryers and for parents with bigger children who are going in on their own, there is a cafe serving a good variety of snacks and drinks where they can still be supervised from. overall a very decent pool with good features. we do like coming here. recent refit made it even more desirable.
