Who thought that one up? Daft name or no, it is a great community sports facility AND it now has a swimming pool! No more infuriating and deafening Zumba music while you try to play badminton, as there are separate spaces for each activity now.

It has really good facilities and runs excellent exercise programmes, such as boxercise, aerobics and tai kwon do. It also has good football pitches for five a side. It has a creche and a play area with soft play area which can be hired for kids birthday parties. Staff here are very good at keeping the kids entertained! It doesnt have a swimming pool, which is a pity and I think it would really benefit from a cafe rather than the vending machines which are all that is available for refreshments.

I'm glad the pool is open and functional again (there was a period where the pool was closed for maintenance-seemed like it was closed FOREVER!!!) The leisure centre is clean and all the staff is friendly...they never complain when ones asks for floaties when in the pool!! ;-) There are loads of classes offered here too, as well as the pool...I'd recommend getting the unlimited monthly plan if you're gonna be going to classes etc too, it'll be the cheapest way!! And that way you won't have to pay the EXTRA (!!!!) for the steam room and sauna..!! The only reason this is not a full five stars is because the spa hasn't been open the last few times I've been (apparently they're waiting for a part...) and that they close at four at weekends!!

They have a good selection classes in the timetable , and it is worth paying monthly as can be costly . I love the CXWORX & Body Balance class & i have just tried Body Pump a bit hard but will try again !

I've only been to Scotstoun for the rugby at the stadium, so my review relates to that…read more The stadium is fairly small, about 1/10 capacity of Ibrox or Parkhead. There's only 3 stands at Scotstoun, but at £15 for a standing ticket (in advance) you can't complain about watching Glasgow's only pro rugby team. Watching rugby live isn't like watching it on TV, the atmosphere is much better than you'd expect for 6000 people. On match days you'll find plenty of small food trucks, a dedicated Guinness bar (pro12 sponsors) as well as the clubhouse which has a bar, food & pre/post match entertainment. There's a merchant stall as well as a kids zone to keep the wains entertained. The one difference between football & rugby games is that you'll find some of the players wandering around & taking part in passing circles with kids etc. If you've never been down to a rugby match at Scotstoun, then you're missing out on a great afternoon/evening. There's beer as well!

Surprisingly for such a large swimming pool, it is possible to catch a quiet time in here: although…read moreit is used by schools and has a large programme of lessons, there is always space for a few leisurely lengths. In line with the general run of Glasgow Council's pools, the centre is immaculately clean, and a gym membership covers all of the Council's sports' facilities. The gym is busy and businesslike: Scoutstoun is the ideal place for a complete work out, even if it is some distance from the town centre and slightly off the beaten track. The sauna suite suite is especially impressive, with a women only night on Tuesday, but it always worth catching a class or two. The Body Combat is good for a high energy laugh.

I didn't even know that places like this still existed! It's the kind of hall you'll remember from…read morebeing a wee kid - a multi-purpose place that's a little run down but has a load of charm to make up for it. I visited here for a special event last year - a tea dance hosted by Cushion & Cake. It's tucked away off the Finnieston strip so be sure to check out your Yelp map before setting out, lest you get lost along the way. It's a hall which can be hired and set up how you fancy. For this event, there was lovely set out tables along the sides of the room with the middle left free for dancing. We were there for a few hours and generally the space was really nice and enjoyable - the only downside being there weren't really enough loos for the amount of ladies that were there. You can park on the street, and it's a generally nice space which would be worth looking into for a mid-sized event (it could probably hold up to about 60 people I'd guess!).

Although the facilities here may be overshadowed by some mega-sports complexes, Bellahouston…read moreLeisure Centre is in a great location and has wonderful staff. They're chatty, friendly, full of information - and if they can't tell you something then they go out of their way to find someone who can. I've had pool guards politely step in to help teach my son and daughter to swim - just little tips to help the parental lessons. When I turned up without change for the pool lockers (it's a £1 coin), a member of staff took 90-something pence from me and told me not to worry about the pennies. The gym is good and personal trainers are available, and the main hall is used frequently for sporting tuition and markets. Even the canteen is pleasant with its view of the pool. Quibbles? The car park often gets rammed due to sheer popularity and you have to be at least 16 (I think) to look after another child in the swimming pool. This makes it a little awkward for me to take all three of our kids unless my wife joins us. Talking of kids, if you live in Glasgow make sure they sign up for their free "Kidz Card" as it gives whopping discounts here.

Jim who signed me up is one of the nicest people I have ever met, and very good at explaining all the many options for membership. There is also a huge parking lot outside. If you are a hardcore gym fanatic, not sure I recommend it so much as this is a very family oriented gym. My idea of a workout is a 60-90 minute swim, and I just bury my head in the water and get in the zone with whatever sets I feel like, I am not a leisure 20minute frog swimmer...Let's just say my idea of a workout is not possible at this pool, it was pretty chaotic the 3 times I went to the pool. They also have a mixed family locker room attached to the pool, which to me is hardly relaxing. Nothing like trying to squeeze in and out of a speedo in a 3ftx3ft changing room. Also keep track of your locker keys, mine was taken on day two, and it was wrapped up in my towel, so somebody was deliberately rummaging through my stuff. Due to the nature of their lockers you can't have a combo lock on them. It is one of those, insert a pound and take the key with the bracelet deals...no bueno if you are a swimmer. Though I will be looking for another gym in the area, this may be a great option for somebody else's needs.

Every weekend I would don one of my many pairs of…read morefluorescent colored jeans, as was the style at the time (the green were my faves!) and head down to the Lagoon ice rink with my friends. There used to be a huge queue outside of spotty adolescents dying to get in so that they could hang around the edge of the ice rink but not actually do any skating, while the DJ (yes an actual DJ) played a selection of 90s dance hits. "Groove is in the heaaa-aaarrt." "We are the children of the night. We fight for the future of our nation." "Rhythm is a dancer. It's a source of passion." "Everybody's freeeeeee to feel good." And so on. We really did think we were the coolest things out at the time. Sigh, those were the days. I was devastated to hear that the ice rink is no more and instead it has been replaced with a sort of sports hall type thing where you can play and watch racket and team sports. There is also a gym but it is perma-mobbed so I don't use it anymore. The pool is quite good fun. It has a section for doing lengths but there is also a wave machine and what can very loosely be described as a flume. You can also have beauty treatments at the Lagoon although I have never sampled any myself. There are loads of really fun fitness classes such as street dancing, belly dancing, vibe cycle and loads of martial arts style classes. While I will never get over the loss of the ice rink of my youth, I do think the Lagoon has come a long way in the past few years and is a great place for anyone who wants to get a bit fitter as there is so much on offer at a reasonable price.
