Nuffield Health Farnborough Fitness & Wellbeing Gym - Farnborough

I have been a member at this club for several years. The staff are all really approachable and always go the extra mile to help where they can. You can see how hard they work to make customers happy. Me and my children are always met with a smile when we come in to the gym. My children also have had swimming lessons from a very young and have made great progress in both confidence and ability.

My child swims at Farnborough and thoroughly enjoys her lessons, the teachers are amazing, kind and have helped her develop her love of swimming.
The staff are welcoming and helpful on the front of house. The managers are friendly and helpful.

My children have loved swimming lessons at this Club, initially they were nervous but after a few lessons with Caroline they really started to progress.
Only 6 to a class which means each child has more time with the instructor 10 out of 10 would recommend!

I recently joined and Im satisfied with the gym, swimming pool, and sauna – they’re clean, well-maintained, and everything seems to be working as it should. However, the showers and changing rooms are in need of serious attention.

There’s mould on the ceiling, cracked tiles, dust in the vents, rusty pipes, and the showerheads are not properly fixed. Additionally, the soap dispensers aren’t secured properly. These might seem like small issues, but collectively, they make a big difference to the overall experience.

I’ve used several Nuffield facilities before, and they’ve always been premium health clubs. Unfortunately, this particular location doesn’t meet the usual standard. Addressing these concerns wouldn’t require a huge investment but would significantly improve the experience and likely attract more members in the long run. I hope this feedback is taken into consideration.

Similar to what others have said, they have a strong smell of mould and patches of mould in the changing rooms and steam room. Given that it's £67/month for membership, cancelled after the first month as it's just run down. Would be happy to use it again if they give it a proper clean and refurb, which is just sad as years ago it was a really nice place to come. Hope the management see this and do something about it as they're losing business, that could easily be avoided. (The staff are friendly but deserve a better facility to run!).

Nice gym and convenient for me, but scored lowly as it needs investment in facilities : the air-conditioning barely works so I avoid on a hot day, pool seems frequently closed for repairs, some parts of the changing rooms are a bit mouldy, you still have to access the turnstiles using a card (rather than an app). Friendly staff, doing a good job in the absence of investment in the club from what I can only suspect is a poorly managed or cash strapped head office.

Aircon hasn’t been working for months, constant excuses, gym is so hot it’s unbearable. Spoke to the operations manager about it as I ended up sending a formal complaint in and he proceeded to explain to me that a ‘chiller unit is different to an aircon unit’ - don’t really care, just would prefer not to feel like I’m going to pass out every time I exercise, still hasn’t been fixed in the few months multiple members have been complaining. Then told me that when he came in that morning the gym was a good temperature, and that I should come in the morning instead. Gym is also filthy a lot of the time, running out of wipes to wipe down sweaty equipment and just dirty in a lot of communal areas. Overall- travelled around a lot, been a member of a lot of gyms, never even felt inclined to leave a bad review before because I just need simple equipment to work out and working AC, however this gym is just so bad I felt inclined to as don’t want anyone else to have the same experience.
Pros- gym very empty at peak times compared to most other gyms, reception staff are really friendly, members respectful and friendly.

I couldn’t speak more highly about this gym! It’s been amazing during my maternity leave and I can’t believe all it has on offer. A FREE crèche, FREE baby swimming lessons. At David Lloyd I had to pay for everything! The ladies in the crèche have been fantastic and a big shout out to Caroline, who is utterly brilliant. We’ve really looked forward to her swimming lessons each week. The gym itself is modern and well equipped. I just wish it was a bit closer and that Farnham offered the same! Thank you so much! 😃
