I was on holiday for a week so I was able to get a week's pass. Have to say they are really helpful and the gym is brilliant. Trained everyday using
the sled, tyre flipping, sledge hammers, battle ropes circuits and free weights. Shame we haven't got equipment like this back at home..

Booked a weeks access while on holiday, loved the machines, they're so smooth and not like the cheap machines in the local big chains! Access was easy and recieved an email from management to check on us so there is a nice personal touch too!

Excellent gym, clean & friendly. This well run gym was a great addition to our summer holiday in Rye. They do a good value weekly membership which was perfect for our needs and you still had access to the gym 24/7.Gavin was helpful and answered my queries quickly. Great for locals but equally as welcoming for us visitors. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area or locals wanting to join a gym.

Well equipped new gym, spotlessly clean. This includes the shower and changing rooms. Gavin who owns the gym makes everyone feel welcome. Members have 24/7 access with key card. Classes available too and I would expect that more is to come.
