Nuffield Health Plymouth Fitness & Wellbeing Gym

Great Classes, staff, trainers, and facilities especially the pool & steam room

Awesome gym and a nice feel to it. It's got everything you need and more. Plus it's amazing value when you consider everything you get.The gym seems to attract people who just want to go in and get on with their own routine.Gyms can be an intimidating place, but for me the Nuffields has a friendly feel to it and it's a nice place to workout.The staff have always been more than happy to help me out out on numerous occasions and I can honestly say, I would definitely recommend it.Also from reading earlier posts, the ventilation seems fine.Thumbs up from me..

This club has an overall great and better atmosphere than the devonshire seems to, you walk in and straight away you feel under no pressure and and you get left alone, nobody bothers you or takes offence for anything even for so much as walking in a certain way, I love it and will keep using, I love just opposite the devonshire which had a wonderful outdoor pool but this club appears to take the edge with its spa.facilities whilst the pool is smaller, if you choose your times and can accept a bit of hustle and bustle then this club works well, also the gym is excellent containing equipment that most gyms in this city dont have and you would normally travel far for. Keep up the good work and staff seem to be great there too.

Why on earth didn’t you turn off the jaquizzi turn it to cold so it’s a dip pool for health. Massive waste of a resource that can be used as something else until the money situation improves

I thought I'd give this gym a try after being recommended by friends, as I was in the area I managed to get a day pass. Not really knowing what to expect, as gyms can be hit or miss. I was greeted by friendly and courteous staff who were very helpful and even offered me a tour. I tend to find my own way and the staff were happy to allow me the freedom to do so, but made sure I found my bearings. The changing rooms were clean, but did have the typical boys changing rooms at school whiff about it. There's an abundance of space to get changed and plenty of lockers to stow your belongings in. I was impressed by the small luxuries like the spin dry machine for your wet clothes post-swim and hairdryers too (even though I'm bald). The gym itself is located on the upper floor, which I found to be surprisingly small and badly laid out. I can understand the need to maximise space but the equipment seems very jumbled around as well as being tightly packed together... which I can imagine can be a safety hazard when it's full to capacity. The equipment itself is generally good, however I was dubious of the leg press as it looked very old and another member warned me not to use it as it's rather 'rickety'... so I gratefully gave that a miss. Overall the gym is okay, but it does need rearranging into a better order with some serious consideration of h&s. Post-workout I headed to the pool, located on the ground floor, which also has jacuzzi, sauna and steam room. The shower area was clean and tidy, and my only gripe here is that the water could do with being a bit hotter... But maybe that's because I like a near scalding water temp. Overall it's a good gym that's in need of a spruce-up and change around, but in saying that... I would use again.

Been a member for over a year now and can't fault it. Always really clean considering the amount of members. Yes, at times the pool area is busy but its just one of those things. The classes are always good and the instructors are faultless. Really friendly staff on the front desk and willing to help. Even if you're on the waiting list I find you do tend to get a place.

Joined in February and have been really enjoying this gym, staff are very friendly and happy to help.I mostly use the pool facilities and classes due to mobility issues and find that it can be quite overcrowded, especially as the decision has been made to remove the spa pool (jet pool) permanently.Husband uses the top floor free weights and machines and whilst variety and quality of equipment is very good he also often relays that these areas are also very crowded.For any improvement, I think that either an extension of the space and some moderation / limitation of members would be ideal. For instance as all members scan their card to enter there could also be an exit scan to provide accurate numbers in the premises (this would also be advantageous in any instances of fire / evacuation) which could then relay through the app to allow members to see how busy the gym is before arriving.

nuffield health is way too expensive for what it is, way to crowded. aircon is broken and wont be fixed untill winter. when i asked for a refund they laughed at me and said im never going to get one. staff are really rude. since moving to puregym ive been able to exercise alot better and have loads more room. avoid this gym!!

Sorry Nuffield, nothing personal. The facilities and staff are still great, but it’s no longer an enjoyable visit for me. For some reason you have an overcrowding issue. Way, way too many people are using the gym and pool from 1700 to about 1945 weekdays. No hope of getting on a piece of equipment or swimming, let alone relaxing in a stress free environment. This means cleanliness also suffers. Have you signed up too many new members recently?
