Castle Leisure Centre Bury

What a shocking little dump of a place. Changing rooms smell like pee. It’s like the green room for the Jeremy Kyle show, if he gave out arm bands instead of paternity tests. Where the great unwashed go to wash… well and truly gross.

A great facility, everything you need to keep fit as an individual or as a family. I go swimming 3 x weekly, excellent! Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Great range of facilities. Had a really helpful induction to the gym. Just need to motivate myself to go regularly. Helpful staff on reception and elsewhere.

A Male in the female changing rooms… complained to manageress who didn’t apologise, just said if lots of women are in there, why are only you complaining?? Next minute several women were complaining to her but still no apology… Also faeces in one of the cubicles… absolutely disgusting!!! I will not be back…

Joined the gym about a month ago love going every day .The staff are lovely I would recommend to anyone

Wouldn't even give one starLife guards are clearly unable to do their jobs properly and had me last minute stranded in the deepest part no chance of them guiding me to the side of the pool to hold onInstead they cut off that access which scared me and made me panic which results in drowning and as someone with thalasophobia trying to get over that fear it has made me very uncomfortable

Bury leisure? My wife’s a member for swimming she’s booked in for Thursday and Friday unfortunately she cannot attend on Friday but trying to cancel this is impossible you can’t get on there website and nobody will answer the phone so ladies and gentlemen if they try to fine you £2.00 for not attending I think they are in for a argument. If they can’t get there Systems to work somebody should be able to answer the phone. PS I’d like the people who organised this to explain how they think it is the right way to help people.

The water in the family pool was cloudy and the bottom felt a bit slippy. Really unpleasant. The family changing area is very small, very dated and has a single shower and toilet so lots of queuing required. Compare this to other leisure centres within a half hour drive and this is an embarrassment to Bury. The staff were friendly and helpful but much better facilities are available elsewhere if you have the transportation.

Difficult to find anything on the website. Kept asking to join and not able to find what I was after. Went a few weeks ago and told the session I went for was no longer running. But signs still advertising it. Modern scanning system I find hard to use as have to scan to get in and then have to scan again to enter the activity. Not user friendly with this type of technology for people like myself that aren't technical minded.

Good facilities, decent price. Only things are when i finish work and get to the gym theres a load of kids in (some of them no older than 12/13) doing half sets one every machine one at a time, not knowing what their doing, no real plan, and taking up every single machine just messing. I think 5:30 - 8pm should be adults only. The kids have 3:30 - 5:30 to do their messing. Also bank holliday hours really need updating on the website or app or at least make people aware bank hollidays are sunday hours and un bookable at other times. I took my pre workout and was able to book my session on the app for 6:15am, only to get there and it was shut. You can only imagine what i had to do to controll the pre workout buzz.also that new gate is soo anoying and doesnt work half the time and the app keeps logging me out whilst im trying to book.
