A fantastic vet for both routine things and major surgeries. Very clean establishment with a good selection of products for your animals. Friendly to both humans and pets. Very well priced services and are always good at sending out reminders of vaccinations and very interesting newsletters as well. Shame we moved away from the area.

Had an emergency with our small dog. Took her to the local vets and they were fantastic, saw her straightaway and did lots of checks to diagnose the problem. Was a little costly but then again they were thorough with their checks. Friendly manner put the dog at ease, not to mention my hubby.

We got this guy out of the local paper and it was the best find ever, so professional, quick, tidy and gave some great advice about other issues we had concerns. Was also friendly to the children in the house. Everything was done in a timely manner and his prices were so reasonable. Did not flinch and eyelid when we added some extras small jobs to what we initially asked him to do.

Very timely repairs and services. Good value. Very professional operation and always leave the car cleaner than when they receive it.

Can be expensive and they like you to keep coming back for more things, however the service they provide is great especially when it is women's problems and you don't want to see a male.

A great library offering story-time and rhyme-time for kids. It also has little puzzle sections set up for toddlers to do something while adults are checking their books out in the self service section or selecting books from the non fiction. It has an enclosed safety gated park right next door. Great selection of books for the whole family and even a toy borrowing section.

Very clean and well presented centre, with heaps of things to keep the children happy and active. Very secure set up. Staff are very friendly and are willing to help out in tricky separation situations. Admin can remember everyone's name and situation even though its a large two centre operation.

The pool itself is great and reasonably priced. However accessing the gym when you have children who require creche is impossible. There is a wait list a mile long and no casual vacancies. They were happy to sign you up to the gym, but with no guarantee of child minding whats the point. They really need a casual list.
