This post is mostly to be used for people like myself looking for specific information on this particular pool, hope you find it useful.
I haven't been to this pool in about 3 years so couldn't remember what to expect, after Googling it and searching Facebook for the info I couldn't find what I needed. I have a 4 year old daughter and we occasionally like to go swimming for fun, we live in Brackley which also has a pool managed by Leisure Centre. The reason I wanted to come here over Brackley pool, simple Brackley learner pool is full of debris and has been for months. I beleive it hasn't been cleaned as why would this scally stuff still be here each week, not only this has annoyed me but the pool and air was cold on our last visit which I beleive is down to a power issue with the solar being changed out. Either way I came to Towcester to try their pool again and I wanted to know is the pool warm, clean, what could I expect inside the changing rooms, could I bring my own toys in this particular session waves and flumes. It's very clean, the pool is warm, you can bring all your own toys and noodles. They have a hottub fyi it's 16 and over however so my daughter was very disappointed. I was concerned about the wave and flume with my daughter being 4 years old, waves are so fun, this whole pool is fun, she wasnt tall enough for the flume but this is also so much fun for adults and kids. The coffee shop and seating area inside the pool space is huge and really great. It was £6.50 for us both for 1.5hrs of pure fun I would highly recommend this place, the reception staff were really friendly and helpful. The pool staff rotated very frequently and they were all attentive and smiling. The learner pool had all kinds of water spraying from pipes, my daughter was initially scared but after 5 minutes she was screaming with laughter trying them all out. The main pool is also warm, and the hottub/dpa was quite warm. Personally I'd travel here for swimming from now on, sorry to it Brackley but so much better here. Thanks you Towcester pool, great...

Read moreBeen a member at this leisure centre for just about a year. Overall there is very little to mark it down but there are a few things that would secure 5 stars.
The good bits The centre is always clean and tidy, including the toilets. The pool is well managed and has a good mix for adults and kids. There are plenty of activities to get involved with and a good range of classes if that’s your thing. The new gym has everything that you’ll need for a fully rounded workout. Even when at its busiest there’s enough equipment to make do even if you do have to adjust your session. There are staff members that are super friendly and helpful (further comment in the next section).
The not so good bits The not so friendly staff are just that, don’t acknowledge you passing by even when directly spoken to with a hello, morning or goodbye. Not the end of the world but manners cost nothing right. It was a shame to see the 3rd rowing machine removed just as it was waiting for a replacement foot rest. The drain in the men’s shower has backed up a few times and left a nasty residue on the floor- remember the flip flops.
Overall genuinely surprised how good this is for a...
