Leisure Centres in the Vale

There are plenty of opportunities for you to get active and improve your health at the Vale of Glamorgan Council’s leisure centres. Whether you are a fitness fanatic, or a novice looking to burn a few calories, our leisure centres have everything you need.

Our four main leisure centres – Barry, Penarth, Llantwit Major and Cowbridge – provide a welcoming non-intimidating environment. They all contain state-of-the-art LifeStyle gym suites, and if you join our LifeStyle membership scheme then you will be able to train at either of the four centres – ideal for tailoring your fitness needs around your own life, work and family. Our friendly staff will help you set and achieve your goals by drawing up your own dedicated fitness programmes.

Other facilities on offer include our popular swimming pools, fitness classes for everything from pilates to circuit training, large multi-purpose sports halls, health suites and much more. Many local sports clubs also meet at our centres each week so if you are a keen Badminton player, for example, and can’t find anyone to take you on, why not join a club?

Children also love taking part in our activities, parent and toddler classes, and soft play areas while our leisure centres are the perfect venue for fun-packed birthday parties.

Our two smaller venues in Barry, the Holm View Leisure Centre and Colcot Sports Centre, also offer plenty of facilities. The Colcot Sports Centre includes an indoor climbing wall, all weather pitch and Hammer Gym where you can pound the weights. The Holm View Centre has plenty to keep you occupied both indoors and out, including a sports hall ideal for five-a-side football.
