Colchester Leisure World.

Not ware you have to book this online, the reception guy wasn't very helpfull just said you have to do it online you can't book through the reception desk, We booked it one in the end and found out they have got rid of the pound lockers, so you have to buy a padlock which you can either pay the £5 for a padlock from them or while you wait for your session nip to pound land and costs a £1 for a padlock never know this think absolutely stupid policy this place has implemented. In certain area...

Went to the swimming part of the leisure centre and had a blast, it’s mostly online bookings with time slots most likely due to its busyness. Polite and friendly staff, clean and tidy centre and good value for money. Car park will be busy, so be prepared to hunt for a spot midday! Parking is set to 4 hours stay if you use the iPads and put in your number plate in. Overall a superb day out and will defiantly be visiting again

Rapids not working for a long time now, cameras now under the water?! what is that about!?!?!?!?!?!? disgusting not going back for that reason why are they filming in the water disgusting privacy violation 🤮 also padlock lockers?! what a con happy to sell you one for £5 tho don't worry. Slides are good but need a good sand down or some kind of smoothing/wax because it's like sliding down on sand paper all the way

Went as a family of four, 2 adults and 2 children. Changing rooms and bathrooms were in need of a deep clean, it wasn’t pleasant to be in there for more than a few minutes. The place is a little dated and for us a little too busy for the size of it. Viewing area could be bigger as well. I’d say good for families with younger children, if you don’t mind a crowded space.

It would be a little more pleasant if the water was warmer, but other than that, we generally have a fairly good visit. The rapids have been closed the last few times we've visited, but when they're open, they are great fun. There's also slides and a whirl/wave pool.
