The rating is to highlight the issue rather you skim over the review because it has a higher star rating. My rating would be 4 star based on swimming alone. That said i do feel in the "swim for fitness" activity you need to add more lanes. So currently you have two fast lanes roped off. Then two big double lanes for medium and slow swimmers. I thought if you added another rope in to lane 3/4 the wide medium lane you create a medium to fast lane next to the two fast lanes. This additional lane would help split out the fast lane swimmers so the lanes won't be too full. This would use up the space in lanes 3/4 more effectivily also. If you would like to discuss further to my ramblering above please call or email 07799888246 or tdines2317@hotmail.co.uk. Other than that the pool is clean and tidy and the pool staff are friendly helpfull and always greet us with a warm smile even at 6.20 am.
