Swimming
The health club has a massive 25m swimming pool. Swimming lessons are available for adults and children on an individual or group basis or try an aqua class for a workout that’s easy on the joints.
For children there is a fun pool which has been designed in the style of an oversized bathroom and features a giant duck slide, bath taps that pour with water, toothbrushes that stand to attention and fountains that jet water unexpectedly. Learner swimming lanes have been included as well as a shallow area for mothers and babies.
For complete relaxation in the health club the spa area is a haven. The spa area encompasses a huge hydrotherapy pool where you can sit back and let the different massage jets gently soothe. Surrounding the pool is the sauna, steam room and sanarium. A sanarium combines the effects of a sauna and steam whilst maintaining a comfortable humidity.
