Sovereign Centre

Have been to wave pool many times but this time (Feb 2023) it wasnt great. The wave machines were switched on twice in an hour and a half. It was measly and meant I had three children asking me when the waves would come back - and the answer was in an hour - for a child that is a Lifetime. Also, not enough changing room. My youngest and I had to change in the corridor as there were no spare changing rooms. And a pool of a hundred people had to fight for 4 (yes 4) showers. Overall unless you ...

I like the swimming although areas really do need decorating. However, the booking system needs to stop now.

I've not been there swimming since the 1980s. The adult swim area and changing rooms have not changed at all. It wasn't very busy when we visited at 7pm and was quite a relaxed swim using the lanes. Very helpful and friendly staff.

I have been coming swimming here for years. Yes the pool and everything is a bit dated but its one of the best swimming pools around. Waves are good fun and so is the slide. The pool is big enough to have a good splash around. My children attend swimming lessons here and they seem to be improving, so that's good.
