    Hi there.

    Was a member a few years ago but was driven insane by the amount of swimming classes they ran. Every time I was there the changing rooms and showers were over-run with little girls, little boys and their mothers. It was hard to find a spot to get changed quietly.

    It also needed a bit of a facelift but that might have been done since I've been up there.

    Hope that helps, sorry to be negative but I wish someone had told me about the swimming etc. before I joined.

    We have just got a family membership recently (although I haven't been as yet!) But I believe it is very nice (especially the pool and spa areas). I have only heard good reports and it has recently been upgraded.

    Thanks to you both - I'll go up and have a look. The kids thing might be a bit much during their holidays though!

    The gym in the Marriot is lovely. Think it's more or less teh same as the Glenview and they don't have family memberships because they don't want too many kids there.

    Wingding, how much are you paying for the marriot? We were quoted 1500 per year for a couple. No joiners fee if you pay cash up front.

    Ah I didn't join in the end. Went to Glenview and Marroit to check out the facilities and all I remember is there wasn't much difference between the price of the 2. In the end I decided I'd rather do my exercise outdoors. Which as it happens occurs very rarely!:rolleyes:
