Bitterne Leisure Centre

This place is a center for the community in the truest sense.
The staff are friendly and do their best to keep it clean, which can't be easy in the dated facilities.
I only use the pool and the changing areas desperately need an upgrade, but for me that only knocks off 1 star because I commend the center for keeping their prices achievable for their diverse clientele in all walks of life.
I love seeing families of all backgrounds taking part in the children & infant classes, people of all shapes and sizes in the lane swimming sessions, singing a song with an elderly lady in the next shower, positive affirmation Graffiti in the changing cubicles and noone ever batted an eye over a modest swimsuit.

First time back in a swimming pool for over 20 years, and I loved it! Only did 10 lengths, but baby steps. I've got COPD, so I'm trying this to help my breathing. So far, so good. See you again tomorrow😀

This Leisure Centre is a well-equipped community facility in Southampton, offering a range of fitness and recreational activities.

The center features a modern gym, a large swimming pool, and a variety of exercise classes suitable for all ages and fitness levels. It’s particularly family-friendly, with swimming lessons for kids and fun sessions in the pool.

While the building may feel a bit dated in places, the friendly staff and affordable membership options make it a popular choice for locals looking to stay active. Overall, it’s a convenient and welcoming spot for health and fitness.

I went to the gym and swim, for atmosphere and friendliness, both staff and other customers, this is a great place, I immediately felt at home, the gym is very good, the pool is adequate and unchanged since I was there many years ago, lane swimming was well organised and there was plenty of space, lost a star for the almost derelict changing room and lockers, like so many other places they just haven't the money to put into these areas, however because of the atmosphere of the place it won't put me off going there, I will go home for my shower and shut my eyes when walking through the locker room, overall it was very good and I had a worthwhile workout !!!! ..
