Anytime Fitness Kendal - Kendal

Watch out for parking. Allocated spaces for the gym, then you have to enter your registration on a machine in the gym. Get it wrong - fine.
Additionally, should you go over the alloted time, you are required to make additional payment through SMS/phone. No payment available at the carpark.

The parking setup is the main reason for 3*. They gym itself is clean, plenty of cardio machines and racks.

Standard Anytime Fitness setup, mostly with Life Fitness machines.

I notice a decent Hammer Strength glute machine in the corner.

They also had an early morning class on, which is great to see.

This is a good gym, if you want to or need 24hr access. has all the equipment you need, to follow a programme, and achieve desired results.

I can see within the reviews that I’m not the only person this has happened too. I have had a membership with this gym for years and rang to cancel my subscription. (Out of my 12 month contract) I continuously got emails of payments that were due. I had called multiple times over around 3/4 months. This was apparently cancelled but I continued to get emails or none payment. I rang earlier this morning to get the “Manager” on the phone who was not willing to sort this or even apologise for the inconvenience of this. The gym itself is great but the management is clearly not bothered about its customers.

Lots of great equipment. The bathrooms are have recently been updated and are always kept clean!

It used to be great but few months ago things seemed to get worse. Bad decisions- removing important, heavily used equipment and poor floor planing wasting precious space in such a small gym... Also allowing „personal trainers”-not linked to AF- reserving equipment and space for their groups is a bad move… Not to mention endless wait for the bathrooms/toilets to be repaired. 2 stars only for 24/7 opening times.

This used to be a great gym, but when the current owner took over he drove it down hill. All the original staff have been driven away by him and his behaviour, those staff had relationships with the customers and they'd been treated poorly.

He made large changes to the gym without consulting the members or staff, and these changes drove loyal customers away and ruined the experiences for many people, especially the fitness classes which are barely existent now.

I heard of instances of the owner banning gym members who gave negative feedback so I've written this under an alias to avoid any hassle.

I used to stay in Windermere and now stay in Edinburgh. When I come back every 4-6 weeks to visit I don't want to fall behind or miss my training and Andy and his team couldn't be more helpful and accommodating with organising access to the gym for me. The gym is great - well equipped and there is always someone cleaning at some point (which during this pandemic is fab to see!) It is a very friendly feeling and welcoming gym and I honestly wouldn't want to use another gym. Thank you for everything you do - keep up the good work and great atmosphere!

Friendly shame free gym. Lots of parking. Great showers that are always clean

Edit 6/12/19.
Tried to cancel membership online as I won't be needing it anymore. (I now have my own home gym which suits me more)

The website has a cancel feature but the button to click just doesn't do anything. Tried ringing but rang off the hook. So just cancelled my direct debit. That could do with being looked at. And there wasn't any soap in shower for over 2 weeks. But still otherwise happy with my experience there
