Very very horrible place and stuff!!!! The worst place where I ever been in London Definitely not recommend !! Everything very dirty,l took membership for my son swimming lessons,so they take 52.50£ from my card,and explain if I don’t like it l can cancel due two weeks witch one l did!But suddenly they take another payment which one l didn’t consider.So l take membership for one month.Due two weeks time they charge me two times! When l came with my son to the lesson at 10 o’clock reseptionist lady said that the lesson is cancelled.What a surprise she said the pool is cold.No one didn’t let me know about.So l take Uber because I not drive.Dress up myself and my son pay 20£ for Uber,spend time and money for nothing. Instead I went to the swimming office there was 2 manager one of them talking to someone l did knock and ask them l need cancel membership should I wait,they said yes.I been waiting with my baby 30 min.When they finish talk. They just closed door on front of my face don’t explain nothing and gone.Very rude to me.I’m very sad about

I would give 0 Stars if I could As a 15 year old, from the start I was told I could enter the gym between 3-5PM on weekends. 3 or 4 months go by into my membership, where I am just stopped and detained by a member of staff, taken out of the gym and placed into an office when I am then argued with for 30 mins about how the times for 15 year olds is actually 9AM-1PM. Just to clarify, I’ve been told by the membership team, about 4 desk workers and 3 different gym trainers that work there that I am allowed to go between 3-5PM. Ruined my day, that inexperienced staff member for no reason. 🤣

Left this gym with reasons being : Equipment always seemed broken. Toilets never clean or broken for months. Cleanliness of the gym was poor also…Always remember I dropped some chalk on the floor and the stain was still there about 3 years later Too many egos in the gym. Just groups of guys lifting nothing bigging each other up, slamming and throwing weights they can’t lift properly and taking ages on everything. Also laughing at people not in their groups who are there trying to better themselves instead of helping. Not what gym culture is about at all.

Firstly, one of the men's toilets in the swimming pool has been out of order since September 2023. Previously, both were out of order in September 2013. The women's toilets are working fine. I suspect that gender discrimination was performed by Barkig & Dadenham Council managers. Secondly, the booking system was unreliable. Many times on adult swimming lanes, also booked the child private lessons,even additional exams.I just want to use the swimming pool one time per week.The management is blocking this option.Why? For 5.30£ per available seasons?Encouraging membership for 34£? Also, the automatic showers have water above 60 degrees. They are burning the skin. It cannot be adjusted. Nobody cares about this. Many od them are out of order for monts.Shame for managers and Dagenham&Barking Council. Finally, I found a much more friendly swimming pool in the Romford area. Shame again B&D Council managers.

Thumbs up for gym, it's nice and seems fairly clean. Swimming pool is spacious but it had a dirt on the bottom, couldn't keep my eyes away from it, showers are filthy and full of hair on the walls, water is leaking from shower heads. It clearly says no screaming or jumping in swimming pool,yet some kids were screaming for a good 20min splashing water on everyone and everything (we all understand they are learning to swim but manners applies to everyone as some people comes to exercise and relax).

It has pretty much everything you need for your fitness quest and more. Olympic sized swimming pools are a pretty rare in this country, especially in the capital so if Swimming is your thing, you're gonna love it! Also if cardio is your thing and you like high-tech treadmills you're gonna love it. They have at least one of every exercise machine, both cable-pulleys and weight-swings. Changing facilities are adequate and they include a family change area and the whole place is accessible to wheelchair users. The price is unbelievable compared to most gyms in greater London (that also have a swimming pool). There's always someone at reception who is friendly and helpful. Only draw-backs are: 1) Free weight section is smaller than you'd expect for such a large facility. 2) The gym side toilet is absolutely filthy... how hard is it to clean a room that's only 10 feet by 10 feet? 3) With the amount of active members, you might need to plan your workout in a quieter time of the day. 4) Sometimes the turnstiles don't work properly... still I'd rather use those than the sci-fi pods that some gyms use. All things considered, I would recommend this to anyone in the local area... you've heard the expression "you get what you pay for" and at Becontree Heath you definitely do!

I usually go to Harrow lodge for swimming with my children but they were fully booked so thought we would try beacontree leisure centre….never again. Firstly the changing rooms were filthy!!! There were dirty nappies across the floor in multiple changing rooms, dirty tissues and half eaten food. In fact the floor was just dirty, you could see it on your feet when changing. The majority of lockers have just a key so there is no way of strapping it to your wrist whilst swimming. Whilst swimming they allowed a woman to be poolside who was wearing outdoor shoes and taking photos on her phone. Half the showers didn’t work. Appalling and will not be returning!!!

The customer service at the counter was appalling. The lady at the counter falsely accused me of being rude, and, unfortunately, the manager's behavior was even worse. It's crucial for management to consider assigning more professional staff, especially at the counter, particularly when children are involved. The current staff's apparent ego issues have created an unwelcoming atmosphere. My 7 year old son was unfairly forced out of his lesson due to the team's incompetence, leaving him traumatized. I strongly urge management to address these concerns promptly.

I drove to the center today for swimming lessons for my daughter but was told at reception that there are no lessons. There were no lessons last week either. No email or text communication was sent about cancelled sessions, they assumed you have read notice board in the center. least you can expect is some form of communication for such breaks. They are happy to send loads of marketing rubbish in emails but not bothered to send important communication. very disappointed with the management.

I had a swimming lesson on Tuesday 2nd January 2024 and it is very important for me to have it due to my mental and physical health. I changed my return ticket from holidays to come back early for this but when I reached there, I was told there is NO SWIMMING LESSON. They deducted the FULL MEMBERSHIP fee right on 2nd January 2024 but there was no swimming lesson on that day. There was no lesson in the previous week as well and charged the FULL MEMBERSHIP for December. I don't know how this is allowed. This should be reported to the consumer right team if I do not get my money back. Staff is very friendly but management is poor and below standards. This place really need a review by the independent body.

Subpar gym for the price you pay. Student price is still way too expensive with discount. You get mainly basic equipment and the space isn’t too big to accommodate the amount of people who come here. Would be great if on the Everyone Active app you could see how many people are in the gym to save you a trip of coming here just to find all the equipment occupied. Some machines are so rusty and some spaces very dirty. Changing rooms need a major updating as well. Sometimes they are quite dirty and the amenities are appalling for the price you pay as there is only basic showers and dated hairdryers that are normally tattered or broken. Toilets are constantly shocking as well, one is always out of service and it just feels dirty entering the bathrooms here. Classes I’ve taken have always been lovely, never particularly challenging, but seeing how the majority of the people who take these classes are elderly people I can see why they wouldn’t push you too far. Also no women’s only space here which I think is a huge oversight in this day and age. Overall, I froze my membership and have not felt compelled to renew it. So so supbar here.

The 25m swimming pool is very clean, however, it can get very busy due to swimming lessons and areas for public swimming taking over swimming lanes. Changing area normally clean, but during peak times can be a bit messy. Booking system is very easy to use and slots are always available. The 50m swimming pool is amazing and very clean, but unfortunately they only open during weekends, morning time only. I hope this could be extended to weekdays with more time slots. Gym is very nice as well, plenty of equipments and mostly new. Free weights area quite small but overall ok. Overall, this leisure centre is a great option for gym, swimming and others things to keep fit. Soft play area for kids is great, but there is a charging fee. Staff is friendly and helpful, if you got any issues it is easy to address via email and management will reply to you. Overall, highly recommend.

A high, but safe soft play, climb, 2 slides, one short, one long, and a ball pit. Small round tables with chairs.

It's a shame that there are a few swimming instructors that don't take their job nor the safety of their pupils seriously... I've observed instructors who are meant to be teaching young ones swim, standing around talking and leaving their students unattended. In about a month of a family member learning to swim, today was the first time that an instructor actually entered the pool to properly support the learners. My family member actually learnt to swim on his back. He was so excited and said this was his best lesson..... This is definitely the treatment the children should get when parents are paying for lessons....Wish I knew her name!!! You earned them one more star!!

Leisure Centre offers a wide range of activities for both adults and children. These include the traditional gym with aerobics classes, swimming lessons for both children and adults, Ju Jitsu classes, Badminton, Gymnastics, Dancing and at the entrance there is also a paid soft play area for children. As of now, the price is £7.40 and allows for an adult + 1 child for a 1 hour and 30 minute session. If you want to grab a coffee or a snack while waiting for your little one's activity, then you can enjoy these at the indoor seating area with a view to the smaller swimming pool.

Gym had a welcome upgrade but still lacks basic equipment like a incline/ decline bench, regular equipment breakdowns that takes months to repair. (Plus changing rooms are sub par). Observed staff not paying any attention who walks in without a pass makes it a security issue!! (Especially swimming pool changing rooms which is gross and packed with kids). Much prefer if they split adults and kids swimming times to make it more pleasant, safer.

I am deeply disappointed by the current state of maintenance at this Leisure Centre. The scene that greeted me upon arrival was disheartening – overflowing bins both at the entrance and behind the leisure centre, creating an unsightly and unhygienic environment. What's even more concerning is that these poorly managed waste bins are located in an area frequented by children. The presence of flies buzzing around due to the overflowing bins poses a health hazard and a potential safety concern for those using the facilities. It's disheartening to witness such negligence in maintaining a space meant for leisure and recreation. I strongly urge the management to address these issues promptly. Maintaining cleanliness and hygiene is essential not only for the well-being of the visitors but also for creating a positive and inviting atmosphere. I hope that my feedback is taken seriously, and steps are taken to rectify the situation

The facilities themselves are good and the staff are helpful. My issue was hygiene. We went swimming and there were people in outdoor shoes all around the pool and pushchairs in the shower area (there is signage to say don't do that but it is ignored) and people fully clothed in the pool. I understand some people prefer to cover up but there are water clothes you can buy that are the correct material.

I'm not one to write reviews unless the experience has been exceptional or utterly diabolical. This place and its manangement team fit in to the latter. Like many before me have commented, the changing room are perpetually in a poor state and appropriate standards are not being maintained. When I attended on the 18th and 19th July to take my 6 month twins swimming (one on either day), the temperature of teaching pool was colder than the main pool. We are left nursing to very ill babies whilst writing this. I have never known teaching pools to be this cold and for babies to be allowed to enter, this is a breach of UK STA standards, which state that teaching pools should be at least 30 degrees in temperature. Either close the pool or put the temperature to the right levels. Im sure im not the only parent dissatisfied with the teaching pool temperature. Also the showers are all cold and no notice has been put up, so we were in for a ice surprise. To top it all, I went to the virtual rpm class in the evening at 8.30pm, to find that it was not on. Again no notice was put up on the door and app still allowed you to book the class. I managed to find a gym instructor who told me the virtual rpm has not been working for the past week. Whilst the rates are reasonable and facilities are good, management need to up their game and understand that the centre is not free and we are all paying our hard earned many for a very poor service in return. Were it a private gym rather than a leisure centre, I'm sure such poor service standards would not be tolerated. The experience has been infuriating and I'll be taking it further.

Whilst in the gym, my girlfriend and many other female friends have told me about an instance of one of the cleaners loitering inside the girls changing room on his phone staring at changing women. This individual worker is a junior cleaner who usually mops the floor and does janitor duties, who is white and short with brown curly hair and looks sleazy (kind of like a sloth). His actions are absolutely appalling and it is a shocking surprise that such an individual has managed to stay employed in this facility. This individual makes this gym a dangerous place, they need to be named and shamed as well as sacked. I have never seen this person ever in the mens changing room, he must prefer the women’s room. This needs to be sorted out.

Guests that are not swimming loiter around in the changing room which makes you really feel uncomfortable. Booked a session where there weren’t many people on it, to go and find the swimming pool packed like a can of sardines. Pool water cold, doubt any chlorine was in it. Makes me think if they ever changed the water out. Worst looked after leisure centre.

I took my kids here for swimming lessons and whilst the swimming teachers are good and know what they are doing, the facility was packed full of people and not very clean the showers were visibly dirty with my little ones scurrying around running from bugs whilst trying to have a shower after swimming. Then they both made comments around the litter that seemed to be dotted all over the changing rooms. This facility will benefit from additional cleaning staff and people also not littering the place and using the clearly labelled bins provided. Also, having less children in each of the classes they run as that will mean less people using the facilities at the same time and allow a bit more time in-between the classes for the cleaning staff to be able to sort out the facility prior to the next set needing them.

Great gym and equipment, and sessions but recently tried to book for Jolly Jungle and found out that I couldn't logon to the membership app to book. Tried calling centre last week several times, no answer on the phone, tried emailing, and social on facebook and no response. Had to ask another parent to book my daughter in with hers, when I got down and asked the receptionist, turns out my email address was wiped off their system and when I spoke to Jolly Jungle, apparently it had also happened to another parent... Phone/Email support - don't rely on it as no one bothers to answer the phone, let alone email or social support on facebook. Quite bad.

I liken visiting this leisure Center to visiting a third world country, unbelievably dirty everywhere, full of rude selfish people (mainly customers) I taught my step daughter more about swimming during a 10 min pool session than they did in 5 30 minutes lessons. Visit at your own risk, recommend getting a hepatitis, typhoid and polio jab after just to be safe. 👌🏼

Had to cancel my daughters membership, when I had a chance of seeing what sort of place this is. ITS DISGUSTING, DIRTY, ALWAYS OVERCROWDED and you charge £35 a month for 4 30min swimming lessons? Never again. AVOID! Cancelled direct debit, as managed to teach my daughter how to swim in an hour. When these joke of teachers couldn’t get her to put her face in water. Pathetic. Never again.

I would have given below 0, only the swimming instructor seems OK. Today boy puked in the water. I was probably the only witness of the very moment (watching from the top). The aftermath was quickly spotted by his swimming instructor. Bits were floating every direction but nothing has been done. Not even other groups have been notified!!! Disgusting pool full of ignorants. Rip off and filth!!!

I am going here with my daughter for more than a year now. The place is filly. The centre staff is responsible to clean the car park, but they are not bothered. It looks like a dump yard, specially towards Morrisons. I have seen the same bits of fly tip, in the same spots for more than a year. Inside, the lockers area is very dirty sometimes, even if I had learnt they have a cleaner on site all the time. The floor is wet all the time. I had seen a teacher who fell because of it and nearly broke her arm. The managers are not bothered about anything. They never give a deep clean to the changing cubicles, they are very dirty in places. Unfortunately, I haven't got any other chance to take my daughter for swimming lessons.

Really a bad environment for regulars. Too many conditions and this leads to lot of chaos during Playtime. Wouldnt recommend for newcomers. Courts are good though

Better than rest of everyone active centres in Romford and Hornchurch, at least staff is polite especially in the gym where I really like equipment and space too ! I think it’s got a diverse clientele and they manage it well ! Needs a saun steam and jacuzzi ! Pool is quite large and good

Really bad customer service. I wanted to cancel my lesson because I was unwell, but they didn't let me. I asked to speak to the manager and they put me on hold, then 'the manager' started speaking acting like he could not hear me. Colleagues were laughing in the background and wasted my time. The manager did not apologise and just hung up on me. The lessons themselves are usually quite crowded, you cannot even get to swim properly. I strongly recommend that you don't book lessons here. They need to sort themselves out.

The swimming area is appalling. It seems the floors are never cleaned, the changing spaces are filthy. And sometimes they don’t have hot water for the showers. Swimming lessons get cancelled without any notification.

I signed up online for the swimming pool and gym, instead of the bundle price I got charged separately. When I realised several months later they refused to refund me the extra amount I was charged. Other than that, they gym and the swimming pool are ok (far from great) although they could be cleaner.

I’ve been a regular visitor to Chequers Corner Brewers Fayre, and it’s always a fantastic experience. The food is consistently very good, and you can tell great care goes into preparing each dish. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home. The value for money is excellent, which keeps me coming back time and again. On this visit, the carvery was especially good – the meat was tender, the vegetables were perfectly cooked, and everything was fresh and delicious. It’s such a reliable place to enjoy a meal, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! Looking forward to my next visit.
