Fun for all the Family

It's often hard to find somewhere to go that can please all of your family, particularly on one of those horrible rainy days. However, there's one place in the Surrey area where you can find something for everyone and all under one roof.

The Guildford Spectrum Leisure Complex houses so many activities that it would be impossible not to find something you want to do.

Guildford Spectrum holds an Olympic sized ice skating rink, which is home to Ice Hockey champions, The Guildford Flames. When the rink isn't holding matches it is readily available for public use, whether you're an experienced ice dancer or it's your first time. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights the rink holds and disco as well as having designated family times during the weekend. There is also plenty of time for general skating. Ice skates are available to hire for very good prices but if you have your own skates feel free to take them in.

If your a fan of ice hockey you can catch a Guildford Flames game from September to April.

Guildford Spectrum also offers 4 leisure pools for anyone from beginners to serious swimmers and divers. The leisure pool is an exciting area for everyone holding slides, a wave machine, tyre rides and bubble beds. This pool is great fun but don't expect to get a relaxing swim. There's no chance of that happening in this pool.

The swimming area also holds an Olympic diving pool which is also opened for general use, so if your too scared to dive just jump!

Swimming and diving lessons are available, as well as party bookings, swimming clubs and private hire. The pool area also has a fully equipped changing area.

As if skating and swimming weren't enough the Spectrum also holds a tenpin bowling area with 32 lanes. It has various weights of balls, lane bumpers if you need them, free shoe rental, a fully licensed bar, pizza restaurant and video machines for after your game.

Bowling clubs and memberships are available as well as bowling parties.

As well as all of this Guildford Spectrum offers a crèche for younger members of the family, a gym and spa, aerobics classes and soft play areas for the children.

A day out at Guildford Spectrum is a fun packed day for everyone; just don't be surprised if everyone wants to do something different.
