Terrible place, badly maintained greens, filthy changing rooms. Terrible service and food in clubhouse. I'm never going again.

Joined this club because I wanted a degree of exclusivity and a good offering of classes but it really is no different from a normal gym. It’s crowded, and it’s difficult to book classes as they are very full. They added more equipment to solve this but it made it feel like a shop selling gym equipment and I still had to skip machines or stand and wait for them to become free. The staff are very polite and friendly but overall you may as well pay for a membership at Fusion which is less than half the price. I don’t golf so maybe it’s better to just go there for that.

Ok gym but quite small gym anrea and very over priced and the membership prices keep increasing by quite a drastic jump. I wasn't emailed about the increases either. There always seems to be an issue with the steam room and once the changing rooms were flooded so we had to walk through the restaurant to get to the golf changing rooms.

Fantastic Golf Country Club and Gym. We visited a number of gym's in the area and Benton Hall really stood out as offering something on another level. We meet Karen for our free tour of all the facilities on offer. Everything was explained to us clearly and we strolled around, we never felt rushed. The membership options were again explained and then we had time to choose what membership best suited our needs. A few days later we had our induction to the gym and Greg asked what my aims were and he set out an initial exercise routine for me. Wonderful young man, professional while relaxed and very engaging. Very relaxed gym, smells fresh and nicely spaced out equipment. The club offers 2 group exercise studios with various classes throughout the day along with a group cycling studio. Swimming pool, Jacuzzi, steam room, sauna. A 9 hole pitch and putt golf course which is included in the membership. Additionally Benton Hall 18 hole golf course which is a separate membership although you get a 20% discount on the green fees with your gym membership. There is also a very large dinning and bar area including an outside area overlooking a large lake, wonderful place on a summers evening.They even have a dinning area for parents with children. Large car park, level access. Non members are welcome to visit the bar and dinning area. A truly wonderful country club where we feel very relaxed and welcome much more than a gym, a lifestyle experience.

Enjoyed a nice round of golf here today (5/9). Very good facilities and course in good condition. Definitely have a sausage roll and a coffee at the "halfway hut" (compliments to the lady who makes them👍) All staff I encountered were very friendly and efficient. Would recommend it

Arrived today expecting to have a good workout and relax in the pool only to be told they're closing early.Apparently "head office got the fastive season times wrong on Google" which I think is unacceptable and not enough of an excuse. Is this how all their gym treat their members.? I'm very disappointed. It's not a cheap gym either. The receptionists didn't seem to worry that they were turning me away, probably because they already have my money. Most of the evening classes were cancelled over the festive season which I feel is unfair as I, and many others work through this ridiculous season. I was under the impression that hospitality do not only run "normal hours". I'm very disappointed.

Every member of staff we have met have been lovely. They are polite and professional. The facilities are excellent and supremely clean. Looking forward to my gym induction, we were so impressed we joined, so did my son and his girlfriend. Thanks especially to Celine for the tour and special offer

Ok so the great weather did help. But, what a great setting and good views making for first tee. Very helpful staff found us a spare tee slot 1 hour earlier and good starter had us off in no time at all. Greens were in great condition - much better than the Essex. Some challenging holes very rewarding. Beware that at least 6 or so holes have a bell, but no current notification signs for you! Also, some hazards difficult to spot because the stakes are set inside and too low to be seen from a distance. A great days golf but spoilt by 3 men bullying their way round the course - no etiquette no manners - hope they have insurance as someone will get hurt one day. Too close for comfort to my partner!
