I do like a little bit of water with my chlorine. After we exited the pool, we headed outside to see the view. However, we couldn't, because our eyes were stinging from the notoriously large amounts of chlorine. I counted 5 floating plasters, 3 balls of bodily hair and another 3 in my mouth that I could physically not get out. The changing rooms were absolutely, completely, stunningly, utterly revolting. Our relatives were silently gagging at the horrors that were the changing cubicles. Everyone present in the changing rooms were wandering around in what smelt like others' urine. I thought I could have a nice coffee after my swim in the toilet (oh wait sorry, swimming pool), however the plans were scuppered by the fact that there was no barista, of whom probably had to run out of the building due to the extreme chlorine levels.Now, for the positives. The lifeguards were friendly, the rides were fun and plentiful and the waves were gigantic; very entertaining! All bar 1 ride - the Boardrider - were working. That's what pushed the review to 3 stars.Final word; DO NOT ENTER THE CENTRE OF THE LAZY RIVER UNLESS YOU HAVE VERY HIGH CHLORINE TOLERANCE!!The overpowering chlorine hit us in the face like the equivalent of chopping 30 onions.10 hours later, we still can hardly see and are wondering how to drive the 4 hours home to Hertfordshire tomorrow.See you next year! 😊

It was a nice place to go for a visit. 2 things that would have helped would be a better parking facility and the building itself could have been warmer inside, leaving the pool area it was very brisk and the children's pool wasn't that warm at all, my son was shivering. The staff were great and very helpful. The price was reasonable for what we paid for. I think 4 star is a good rating, will revisit in the future.

Wave runner has never worked even though on the leaflet it specifically says 'the surf's always up at the LC!', the locker rooms are dirty and cramped, but other than that quite good and fun. Great slides, wave machine is quite fun, lazy river is relaxing with a nice Jacuzzi in the middle, and a lovely warm hot tub. (although going back into the pool from hot tub is quite cold!) Would recommend for people who don't mind dirty cramped places and weren't thinking of going on the wave runner. Would NOT reccomend for people with claustrophobia, people who don't like dirty places (like my daughter) or people who wanted to try surfing. Just go to the beach on a day with lots of good waves and bring a surfboard!

Only allowed a hour and 15 minutes in the pool which I found was expensive for the lack of time compared to other pools. The slides were awful. The rubber ring slide everyone kept getting stuck in, the countdown for the wave machine which was meant to be every 21 minutes for longer. The waves happened ONCE in the hour and 15 minutes we was in the pool. Won't ever waste time or money going here again.

What a great morning we had LC Swansea. Visiting Wales for half term and wanted to take the kids swimming. Had low expectations due to various poor Google reviews here (chlorine, dirty, busy) but happy to say our visit was top notch! We arrived early(ish) for the 10am session and it was spotlessly clean, no queues and hardly any people. We all had a great time, all three slides were working (surf thing was out of order). There was a guy cleaning the changing rooms so they stayed fresh - he was doing a great job. Life guards were clearly being attentive (rare thing these days). It was getting busier as we left so I guess it gets busy as people overstay their sessions. Car park next door was free too (Sunday). I don’t doubt previous comments were well founded but certainly not today. Maybe arriving early is the trick???

Great place to bring the kids. We booked in for soft play and swimming on the same day and the kids had a smashing time!. Was really busy in the pool but enough space to do your thing. Didn't feel like we were squashed in.

Wow, Logan on the soft play was an absolute God send. Never before have I seen a staff member so engaging with the children, from talking to my 5 year old about her future career as a medic to playing with my 2 year old in the ball pit to distract her from having hurt herself. He worked his backside off and made it look effortless. The facilities themselves are cracking and priced really well. Best designed soft play I've been to. The pools were fantastic, although the surf area was out of action, the changing rooms freezing and the disabled parking a joke. Still gets a solid 5 stars, a gem of a place that I wish we were locals of.

Great fun in a very reasonable price, Guarantee you kids will be happy and you will walk out stafisfied as Great fun!!

My daughter's love coming here with the waves, and lots to do in the pool. Wish the water was a little warmer for my 1yr old as she does shiver coming out and the toddler pool is even colder brr...but would highly recommend

This was a fantastic venue for swimming, with a large entrance area that staff checked me in promptly at! Twisting slides are included and one where you are seated that goes on an up and down journey, hot tub is epic too. Waves machine brings excitement and lazy river was fun, not getting too dragged away!

Great swimming pool. The slides and wave machine are loved by my kids. Some of it is looking pretty tired in places but nothing a lick off paint and someone who can use a silicone gun properly can’t fix!

It’s a great pool for kids and families. A Sunday morning session is the best time to go as the pool is quiet for the first hour of your slot and only gets busy towards the end. The volcano slide is more daughter’s favourite, but she also enjoys the baby pool. Once you’re out the pool, soft play is good fun if you or your little ones have any energy left. The only reason I’ve marked it down from five stars is because on a couple of occasions the water in the baby pool/play area has been freezing cold. Though the last time this happened, staff were pretty quick to rectify it. It might have been too late for us, but I appreciated the response.

Nice and safe place for kids. My boy has loved it and ask me to revisit. Also, the people work inside are incredibly nice and caring, especially the manger Sasha.

Great place to have some fun with the kids. Clean water and facilities, friendly staff and nice slides. We'll come back again soon. Thanks!

Mixed reviews about lc2, the soft play is great probably my favourite in the area and some of the staff are great. However today upon visiting the pool with my partner and daughter the young girl on the desk wasn’t very professional or attentive. After she charged us we realised she didn’t give us the resident discount after mentioning this she just froze and didn’t offer to change this so we left it. The reception was incredibly busy and we were told the next swim session wasn’t for another 45 minutes however other customers were paying and going straight in so eventually we did the same and there were no staff policing this so why were we told this?. The changing rooms need a good clean and uplift and are incredibly cold when you exit the pool. It’s also concerning that anyone can enter the changing rooms you should require a pin to gain entry!!The lifeguards are very young and seem clueless and are too busy chatting away, none are watching the children’s pool next to the main pool meaning you are unable to leave your young child freely walk in the pool due to rough ness of the children using the slide (headfirst, backwards etc.) Better management required!!

Grandkids wanted to do the climbing wall and swimming. They loved every minute of it. Very friendly sociable community pool. We booked on a rainy day and glad we did.

I like LC2 because they provide for muslim women good chance to swim and do sport in private room

I joined the gym. Wahay! I committed to a year too, so no excuse.The facilities are excellent. The gym is very well equipped with some hi tech equipment, and the classes are great too. To top it all, you can swim in the pool as part of the membership, as well as enjoy three hours free parking.A really good venue with lots to do.

We come here every school holiday. The chutes are brilliant (bit of a queue). We love the lazy river. And the atmosphere during the wave machine countdown makes it feel like we're on holiday.Water was lovely and warm.Lots of parking nearby (can be expensive for the day).

Swim area really good just a shame the surf area is out of action. Soft play decent. But £3 for a piece cake no bigger than the palm of your hand is a joke

Love the LC2 always go swimming here have about 3 slides, do have cues a lot but never too long.Also has a wave pool that comes on every 20/30 minutes and a lazy river too.There a hot tub/jacuzzi which you can use also and a surf machine for an extra £5 booked separately that you can go on.Also has a cafe where you can get a bite and some coffee etc, a gym and climbing wall all able to be booked, think it also has a kids play gym.Overall great value for money and a good couple of hours out in Swansea centre close enough to other places too!

Well haven't been here in 35 years. Absolutely brilliant. Busy half term day but that was to be expected. Staff at poolside were brilliant. Not afraid to enforce where young lads were messing about. Great to see strictness at all times. Will defo be back.

I couldn’t take lots of pictures as much as I wanted to because it’s not allowed which is understandable.It’s a water park and also has other area where kids can play.I had an awesome experience here, I booked online a day before which cost 8:80 GBP for adults.Each session lasts for 1hr 45 mins. It has a lovely pool that gives waves like a real beach and water tubes. It’s my first time participating in such and it’s so lovely. There’s a changing room and a locker where you can keep your belongings safe.Children will definitely have fun too. There’s an area where you can buy snacks and drinks. I recommend!!!!!!!!

Visited for the soft play. Lovely soft play, plenty for the kids to do, my only gripe would be that you only get an hour. It should be an hour and a half in my opinion, most other soft plays are. The hour goes so quick, once you've gotten a seat, taken shoes off etc. Will definitely come back, but an increase in session time would be better.

Absolutely Amazing, staff were welcoming and accommodating. Clearly excellent Customer Service is promoted and I can let you know it was lived out in reality, Very well done LC2 staff on April 21 2024!O U T S T A N D I N G!

A lovely visit with our children and family to the soft play area. Convenient location with ground floor access for the soft play and café just across the entrance hall. I will certainly be back as I think it is good value for money and ideal for some fun activity on a drizzly winter day. Many thanks!

The water was freezing. The staff were disinterested. When a slide was closed they left the people in the queue standing there for twenty minutes without explaining what was happening. There were staff there - they just didn’t bother to talk to the people in the queue. We got out early - as did several others due to the water temperature

Great pool with my first ever waterslide that goes uphill! Climbing wall is stonking good value for the kids.

We loved the swim had lots of fun in slides had a real laugh my 2 daughters and myself BUT we felt very dirty the walls greasy and could see the band of dirt all way round the pool I just couldn’t wait to get in the showers other than that it was great if the pool walls could get a clean 🧼 🧽 would have rated full 5 🌟 otherwise ☺️

Spa facilities great, and Hannah who does the treatments is excellent. Shame swimming pool not available at all times overall clean and well maintained. Every staff member helpful, polite and friendly. Easy to locate but they could advertise better externally and also at the centre itself so you can. Know more about what you can do there and how much it will cost to do things.
