Oasis Leisure Centre - Swindon

[RemaL]

My 8yo daughter went a few months back. and As it's half term and I have 2 days off later this week she said that she would like to go again

Was thinking can anyone recommend another place around bristol and surrounding areas that are similar to this place that I can take the kids for a change

Cheers

I think Swindon is now the nearest. There used to be Bridgwater Splash, but they closed that down a couple of years ago

ahh right. Someone did say something about Bath but i'm not aware of any pool complex like this by Bath

The swimming pool in Bath does have a couple of curly slides and is just right for an 8 yr old - think they had a wave machine as well although its beena while since i went- its not as exotic as the Oasis though.

you could also try The Olympiad in Chippenham - very similar to Bath Pool and the Oasis

God, I use to love the Oasis when I was a kid. We were always told how when they turned the wave machine up to max when it was first built it flooded the changing rooms! Must be over 20 years since I've swum there.

Same here but it's been at least 25 since I last went. It was mecca for us

We all went to "splashdown" in Poole for my mates 30th last summer - excellent day out!
