Moving back to Tunbridge Wells

12 replies

Hi All

I am moving back from Nottingham to Tunbridge Wells, single due to a marriage breakup.

I want to join a gym there. Is there somewhere that is more like club? Like David Lloyd or a country club?

I am a member of DL up here but I don't see one in T Wells.

Long story short, I want somewhere a bit social.

TIA

There is a Nuffield in knights park, that might be the closest to what you want. I have heard rumours about a David Lloyd...

Nizels might be a good option. Not been there for a while but used to have a good rep?

VoodooQualities · 30/10/2025 19:36

Yep, Nizels is good.

I have friends at Natural Fit which is apparently very sociable. Knights Park is a car or bus journey away.

You might want to ask MN to move this to the MN Local section. I don't think relationship advice is what you're after :D

Fwiw I was born in Tunbridge Wells and I'd rather slit my own wrists than go back.

There’s a David Lloyd in Kings Hill but a bit of a trek from TW. Nuffield Health near the cinema is the most similar.

Natural Fit in the town centre might be a good option.

@TheMidlander1 there was a proposal for one in Pembury but I don't know if it's still planned

I like it but then I wasn't born here, there's a lot more going on than where I was born 🤣

I was born there, was dragged up in Tonbridge and left 30 years ago. I return to TW often and like the vibe, though it can be a bit quiet.
