An application has been submitted to Huntingdonshire District Council and, subject to planning consent, the new Club could be open in late Autumn, 2025. The proposed site for the brand-new David Lloyd Club would create around 60 local jobs during construction and 90 jobs once open.
Plans for the family-friendly Club include:
- A new state of the art gym
- Heated indoor and outdoor swimming pools
- Premium group exercise studios
- Family facilities including indoor soft play and DL Kids Club
- Match-quality tennis, padel, pickleball and badminton facilities
- Premium Spa Retreat with Spa Garden
David Lloyd Leisure is passionate about making its Clubs a comfortable and welcoming place for members to come together with friends and family to promote physical and mental health and wellness.
The plans will also feature a stylish Clubroom for members to meet with friends or enjoy a bite to eat, as well as large and inviting spaces to work, relax and socialise. Family sits right at the heart of David Lloyd Clubs and plans also include a range of facilities for children including a soft play, and spaces for after-school and holiday clubs, offering fun and active childcare solutions for parents outside of school hours. In addition to match-quality tennis courts, the Club will also offer the latest racquet sport to take the UK by storm – padel. The premium Club will also feature a luxury Spa Retreat with Spa Garden.
The Group is committed to creating positive communities both inside and outside of its clubs and will explore opportunities to develop local community partnerships.
