David Lloyd Wickwoods is an adults-only health club on Shaves Wood Lane in Hassocks, offering a broad mix of fitness, swimming, spa and social facilities in one setting. It suits adults looking for a regular place to exercise, recover, spend time with other members or combine several activities in a single visit. For people based around Brighton, the club provides a dedicated wellness and leisure setting away from the city.
The fitness facilities include a spacious gym with modern equipment and fitness technology, alongside an Intuitive Strength Circuit designed to support different experience levels. A programme of group exercise classes covers options such as HIIT, yoga, Pilates, cycling and cardio, with additional Signature classes available. A boutique-style Reformer Pilates studio provides a more focused space for this style of training.
Swimming and recovery are central to the club. The facilities include a 14-metre heated indoor pool and a heated outdoor pool, along with a plunge pool for cooling down and supporting post-exercise recovery. The spa area includes a Spa Garden with comfortable chairs and cocooning pods, as well as saunas, aromatherapy steam rooms and further spaces intended for relaxation. A Himalayan salt sauna forms part of the wellbeing offer.
Racquet sports are represented by four indoor tennis courts, two outdoor tennis courts and three dedicated Padel courts. Coaching is available for tennis and swimming, while personal training can also be arranged as an additional service. The combination of courts, classes and gym equipment gives the club a varied sporting character, with options for both structured training and more casual activity.
The Clubroom adds a social and practical dimension, serving coffee and meals in a relaxed setting. A separate business lounge and workspace are available for members who need to work between activities. The overall atmosphere brings together exercise, recovery and social time rather than focusing on one particular sport or treatment. Membership provides access to facilities according to the selected option, with some coaching and training services charged separately.
