Chelsea Sports Centre

Excellent council gym with pool and classes

Why it's in the guide

The public sports centre on Chelsea Manor Street is surprisingly excellent for a public facility. Fully equipped gym, 25-metre swimming pool, outdoor pitches, and a strong class timetable including yoga, Tai Chi, and group cycling. It's a fraction of the cost of Chelsea's private gyms and serves the community well. The pool is well-maintained and rarely overcrowded midweek. Proof that public leisure doesn't have to mean compromising on quality.

No membership required — pay-as-you-go swims here undercut every private club in SW3 by an order of magnitude.
