New bowling centre and gym open in Newcastle city centre

A new eight lane tenpin bowling centre and new fitness gym have opened in the middle of Newcastle at Eldon Leisure, situated in INTU Eldon Square Shopping Centre.

The developments are part of the first stage of an extensive £3m project to transform the current facilities.

Management of the centre was taken over in July 2014 by charity North Country Leisure (NCL), part of the GLL group.

The new fitness gym is one of the biggest in the North of England and customers can use it as part of the existing membership packages, which also give access to both Gosforth and West Denton Pool and Fitness Centres.

The exercise and dance studios and progression weight gym have also been refurbished as part of the works, adding to the choice of classes and variety of equipment already on offer.

Additional classes and personal training sessions will form part of the new timetable following the opening.

Roger Tames, Chair of the NCL Newcastle Board of volunteer trustees, said: “These are exciting times for Eldon Leisure. The centre was ahead of the game when it opened in the mid-seventies.

“Now these new developments will, once again, put Eldon right at the forefront of leisure facilities in the region. Anyone who has never ventured up our escalator before will be genuinely astonished to see what we have on offer now for all the family. So as the saying goes: ‘Just do it!’”
