Reviews The Pickle Jar At Wilmslow Leisure Centre

Lots of activities to choose from, girls went to the 7-9pm General swim and thoroughly enjoyed.

The Cardiac Rehab was again led by our very capable instructor. We were 10 in number (in for appx. 40 mins) and a few of the general public. Even though younger equipment than some sports centres there is still not enough variation of equipment or space. Some people 'wipe down' equipment they have used but Not everyone. I have not come across the lavatorys on this upper floor.

Lovely day at the antique and collectors fair. Refurbishment of the toilets was incomplete so was directed to alternatives. Friendly, helpful staff.

I think the one star reviews are a bit harsh. The staff are always really friendly and they pretty much have everything you need. Yes it would be nice if it was all a bit more updated, notably the changing rooms - and personally would love a sauna / steam room - but it’s half the price for a monthly membership than other places with those kind of facilities so I think some people’s expectations are a little bit unbalanced. They recently updated the gym which was done well. The extra space for more functional fitness would benefit from air conditioning eventually as it can get a bit too hot in there at times. And I really think they could choose something more appropriate than Bargain Hunt on the TV! I’ve not done any of the fitness classes in a while but they have a decent choice, I used to do circuits which was good. We often hire the sports hall for playing football or badminton with work colleagues, and they have some squash courts too if that’s what you’re interested in. I also sometimes use their 25 metre pool which is totally fine. So don’t let all the grumpy one stars put you off, it’s really not that bad!

Very safe. If you go there for classes the machines and equipment is cleaned by the members when they finish using it and then again by members of the staff who come straight away after the class to moped the floors too. They all wear masks.

Staff are great - I think they are stretched and don't always answer the phone but hey - why do you need to call them ? Reviewers on here are very over critical - not sure what they are expecting. I've been to more expensive gyms and they may be slightly more up to date but is that worth 3-4 times the price ? The reviews put me off going but now I've tried it I'm a regular - does everything you need it to do
