When you're away from home on a training course, why should you have to take a break from your fitness regime if you're that way inclined? Our training centre is less that a mile from the
Melksham Blue Pool, open from 7 in the morning into the evening. We work closely in conjunction with them to ensure them to ensure that their facilities are available to trainees who in Melksham for just a few days. Please email
Lisa (or ask when you're here) for details.
Melksham is set in the heart of beautiful countryside. If the treadmill and pool are a bit too energetic for you, we've got a network of footpaths nearby (one passes right beside our centre) and we're about a mile from the Kennet and Avon canal with a lovely towpath all the way to "The Barge" and "The Three Magpies".
Bring you walking shoes, gym kit and trunks with you - see

Graham Ellis: | Ash - thanks for your comments. The Blue Pool and Gym are fairly typical of what you would expect to find in a town the size of Melksham (acttually the pool is over standard size I think). They don't pretend to be tourist magnets such as the magnificent facilities at Centre Parcs, for example, but they ARE a great place for delegates on our courses and other visitors to Melksham who are on a fitness regime to keep in trim. Small, yes. But it doesn't need to be big to provide what's needed. (comment added 2006-01-25 07:00:54) |
