To think a place like Winchester should have a David Lloyd or similar?

There is somewhere very similar right in the middle of winchester but it's very exclusive & invite only. Apparently membership is £££££

OMG, what is this place called? I thought there must be something, do you think it’s some sort of secret society?

People of Winchester please tell us.

Yeah I think it's top secret, like you have to be in the know to get invited.

I can’t believe no one has come with an alternative. You would think there is one🤣

Perfect business opportunity there for you op, open a gym for the great unwashed. No pun intended! You could make £££

You could call it 'Fitchester' or 'WinGymSter'

There's the Winchester Tennis & Squash club on Bereweeke Road which is good.

Thank you SouthOfFrance, I will drive up this weekend to see the Tennis and Squash club, there were so lovely on the phone.I would make a rubbish Gymntrepreneur, being as I need a group to exercise with or I loose the motivation. The gym also doubles up as office and social place to meet friends etc.

It is a really friendly place, they do socials and the lounge/bar is a nice place to hang out too :)

Dear all,
The tennis and squash was very friendly thank you SouthOfFrance.
After lots of trips and school visits, we have settled on Winchester as a place to leave and Short listed Twyford and Farleigh prep schools. If you have any knowledge of the two schools please share. We want a school where parents are actively involved.Attend matches etc. We won’t know anyone in the area so friendly parents will be a bonus.

Thank you for your help so far.

Good luck with your move Flowers

I don't know about schools but bumping for you in case someone else does!

There's a new sports/leisure centre just built at Bar End so very central.
