Retreat centre activities in London

“Every thing wonderful .Only One thing; the Khutbah MUST be in English or Arabic. So all can understand. Jazakum Allah Khair”

“Went here as part of school camping weekend - very nice setting and good facilities”

“My daughter & I spent 9 nights here before the beginning of her study-abroad program. We'd selected a hotel in eastern London to be closer to the Goldsmith's campus; this was lucky for us as we happened to be there during the funeral for Queen Elizabeth II (thus we were well out of the way of the crowds and closed-off streets). The room was comfortable and had a great shower. Loved the comfort of the beds and pillows. Room service was fast and great. All staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful and made us feel welcome. The hotel is 2 or 3 minutes from a Tube station which was very convenient. The Tower of London/Tower Bridge was about 8 minutes walking time away. Felt perfectly safe in the neighborhood and many pubs & restaurants were within 20 minutes walking distance. Would definitely stay here again.”

“Great park. Probably the best in the area to be honest. Long walks, great views and a real sense of being away from it all... even though it’s only 5 minutes away from the outskirts of Romford. Oh, plus the deer compound and the secret walled garden. Just to add to the allure!!! Update... they now have some new play equipment near the main car park. Fantastic!”

“Very helpful staff and the swimming pool fits for both kids and adults.”

“Really great way to spend a summer day. Easy to book but accepting walk ins (at least in the morning). It gets pretty crowded but not unmanageable. You need to put your towel on the ground that is concrete but the pool is not overcrowded. Remember to take 1 pound for the lockers (retrievable). They have a cafe that serves coffee, drinks and food through the day. If you book morning you can stay practically the whole day. There is enough place decaded for both free swimming and the professional swimming. Highly recommend!”

“I found jennifer really helpful and it was nice to here her experience of were i was intending to go”

“James was the most lovely, welcoming and accommodating person that went above and beyond to help us.”

“We hired Acton Gardens Community Centre for our team away day. Kosser and colleagues were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process and on the day, despite the fact we were 130 people with a packed schedule that we had to get through! The centre has lovely airy rooms and great technology facilities so it was incredible value given how nice it was. Thanks for having us!”

“Excellent center for leisure and activities. Should add family friendly environment for Asian community.”

“Could keep the training pool open a lot longer, pleasant staff especially Megan..☆”

“Brilliant neighbourhood spot right here. Whether you live in Kensington & Chelsea or not, you can access their modern facilities on a pay-as-you-go basis — including the gym, pool, courts and so on. A great overall option if you have small children.”

“I come here every year. It's a great campsite, the only one in and around London that I know of that allows open fires. Well maintained and clean. Night guards and well monitored entrance makes it a safe place to visit and stay even on your own. Suitable for caravans and families with children. Dogs allowed at a daily price.”

“Lovely staff. Parking available but with limited light at night. Played badminton.”

“My daughter had her 7th birthday party here. We chose a bouncy castle party and it was great! All of the children had so much fun, the staff were great with them and kept them well entertained. Two bouncy castles and lots of games set up. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful in providing things we needed and they really made my daughters party fun. Highly recommend for kids birthdays.”

“Great local gym, it has pretty much everything you needed in one place. Swimming line needs to be pre-booked. There are fitness classes including in the membership. Avoid peak hours can be”

“We have been three days staying in these apartments and we have felt at home! Without a doubt, I would repeat my stay! It is very well located and very quiet! Well cared for and very attentive”

“It was a fab afternoon. I went with my daughter and two grandsons. One of them has been learning to swim there with his school. He has been six times and I was shocked at how well he can swim. I'm am so proud how far he has come. So it was lovely to see him swim so confidently. One super proud nanny here.”

“The gym is great, it has the equipment you need, just has a finite amount of it. During busy hours it's difficult to get on certain equipment, but if you time your sessions properly the selection is good and the staff are always welcoming. The staff are nice and welcoming... some of the other reviews I've seen seem a bit dramatic...”

“Was there as a visitor I really liked it. Nice teachers and friendly staff, great canteen and modern equipment in the areas of sports, art, science and languages”

“Ever since the opening of a certain gym franchise nearby, the leisure centre has been super quiet. As much as it makes it more comfortable having less people to wait on machines and weights, this place deserves a little more love from the community in these times. They've lost so much members and its painful to see. Wishing for more members to come”

“I’ve been coming here for an year now and to be very honest I love it! In terms of ambiance is fantastic, I see quiet a few regular faces at the time that I visit and the team is friendly and very supportive (they had to cut my locker twice due to me loosing the key during training) in terms of equipment is very well equipped and in great conditions.”

“Great atmosphere, the new gym setup and the spin room are cool. Loving the changes… staff are polite and attentive. Highly recommended #newme”
