“What a Venue!!!! 

Absolutely blown away by your service, with big smiles too! Thank you so much Bubwith Leisure Centre and staff, you all made Sam & Jaylisa’s day, along with all their family and friends. We couldn’t say enough about the venue. Firstly, it was great feeling to experience the warmth at our first meeting with staff Tracey and Paul, they put us at ease straight away, after much preparation beforehand for the wedding. Secondly, the Leisure Centre is so fitting for a wedding! The decor, the lighting, the sound system for music just from a mobile phone!! The lovely toilets, the size is perfect, plenty of table and chairs to accommodate and the great helpful staff. Thirdly, we dressed it all up as to how we wanted it and staff were popping in and out encouraging us so much with the decorations, which really gave us all a buzz!

Thank you so very much for making our Son & Daughter’s day very  special we will never ever forget it, it will last a lifetime…!!  

I would highly recommend.

5 stars for everything.

PERFECT Venue for a Wedding 🤵👰💜💚

Kind regards

Parents: Mandi,  Paul,  Jeanette,

Bride & Groom Jaylisa & Sam”

“We hired the Leisure Centre for my husband’s 40th birthday. The room was exactly what we were looking for!

Perfect size room to hold ample guests and the lounge bar area was a perfect addition. It had everything we wanted. 

Tracey and Barry who showed us around  were lovely, nothing was too much trouble and they went through everything with us.

The room had its own sound system which meant we could play the music through a phone and tailor the playlist to exactly what we wanted. 

I would highly recommend this venue for any occasion and we will certainly be back to hire the venue for future occasions and celebrations! “

“We held our Social Butterfly Event at the centre in May which involved a fashion show, musical entertainment and outside caterers. Tracey liaised with us in the lead up to the event, nothing was too much trouble ( even when we asked for two stages instead of one a few days before the event). Barry kept the bar running smoothly and everything was kept clean and tidy throughout our event. I would definitely use the venue again and recommend for anyone wanting to hold a large event/wedding/party etc.”

“What started in lockdown as a way to find new and more interesting running routes from

Bubwith and the surrounding villages, is now an annual social event on the Selby Striders calendar.

I started to venture further afield when I wanted to run longer distances from my home in Bubwith. I found some great circular routes taking in the local villages and invited some for friends to join me. The first year I held ‘Bubwith 1/2’ we were only allowed to meet outside due to covid restrictions, so we had cake and drinks on the picnic benches next to the river. There was about 12 runners and I had to keep bringing more hot water from my house on main st.

The next year I had the idea to use the facilities at the leisure centre where we would have toilets and the use of the kitchen. Barry showed me round and we had a good chat about all things running. The facilities were brilliant and everyone who came that year could’ve believe the size and quality of the centre for a relatively small village.

This year we held the event again and had more than 45 runners, we use the bar area and kitchen and have the double doors open to the field at the back. We have everything we need, a large car park, toilet and changing facilities and the kitchen and constant hot water is perfect for many cups of tea and coffee that we consume while judging our bake off following the run.

Thanks again BLC… we’ll be back next year! “

“North Duffield Dragons Junior Football Club has held its annual end of season presentation day at Bubwith Leisure Centre a number of times. The venue is ideal for a large group to get together with lots of room both inside and out.  The team at Bubwith have always accommodated our requests and ensured our events run smoothly. We will definitely be back and recommend the venue to others.”

“Our Chief Instructor was very complementary about the venue / facilities, we don’t hold courses very often, but hopefully we can be back before too long.”

“I would highly recommend Bubwith Leisure Centre as the perfect venue to hold any Celebration or event you are hosting. I held my 60th Birthday Party there recently. From the initial enquiry to the day itself, it has been the most straightforward process with no stress or problems whatsoever. The Venue itself is Amazing! The main hall is enormous and with the option of having a stage. I did and it does not compromise the remaining space at all. The lighting in the hall is fantastic.There are panels in the ceiling which have Twinkly Sparkling lights and are so effective.The lighting around the room can change colour if you so wish.The Disco Ball lighting just helps create the whole party atmosphere.

The Bar is so inviting and in a cosy relaxing setting. The toilets have been refurbished.

 The Accessible room is the most impressive one I have ever seen. It is not only spacious but has an Adult size changing bed, it also boasts a shower! The kitchen is very modern and has everything you could wish for. I did the catering myself ( with help from the family as we had just over 100 attend!).

The whole venue was absolutely spotless and so well looked after. The outside area is vast. There is also ample car parking. Barry, the Secretary, was my first point of contact. Throughout the whole process he was so helpful, friendly and very efficient. Paul, the barman and his staff ran an excellent bar and were also very friendly and helpful. Bubwith Leisure Centre is the most Incredible Venue to hold any event.

It has the most wonderful team of people ensuring everything runs perfectly for you. I cannot thank them enough for everything they all did for me. I had the perfect party at the most perfect venue.

Thank you. You were all Amazing!”

“Now I’m starting to feel almost human again we wanted to say a huge thank you to you all for making Olivia’s day so special.  I have had many comments from guests about how nice you all were on the day and so many people were amazed at the standard of the Leisure Centre.”
