David Lloyd Club Membership Cost 2026: Prices, Facilities & Off-Peak Hours

Last updated: June 2026

David Lloyd Club Membership is the company’s off-peak membership package. It is designed for people who want access to a David Lloyd gym, swimming pool and eligible fitness facilities without paying for unrestricted peak-time access or premium Platinum benefits.

An individual David Lloyd Club Membership is estimated to cost approximately £75 to £100 per month in 2026. However, David Lloyd does not publish one fixed UK-wide price. Your exact fee depends on your selected club, contract length, membership type and local promotions.

Club Membership generally allows entry:

  • Between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM on weekdays
  • After 2:00 PM at weekends

It normally includes off-peak access to the gym, swimming pool and eligible fitness classes but excludes racquet sports, Blaze, luxury Spa Retreat access, multi-club access, complimentary towels and monthly guest passes.

Does David Lloyd Publish an Official Club Membership Price?

No. David Lloyd does not publish one official Club Membership price that applies across the UK.

The company states that membership cost depends on:

  • The David Lloyd club you select
  • Club, Plus or Platinum package
  • Standard or Flexible contract
  • Individual, couple or family membership
  • Access requirements
  • Facilities available at the club
  • Current local promotions
  • Corporate eligibility

Two people choosing Club Membership at different locations may receive different prices.

The only amount that should be treated as your official price is the written quotation supplied by your selected David Lloyd club.

What Is David Lloyd Club Membership?

Club is David Lloyd’s off-peak package.

It is the least inclusive of the three main national packages:

  1. Club
  2. Plus
  3. Platinum

Club is designed for members who can visit during quieter daytime hours and do not require premium facilities.

It can be a suitable option for people who mainly want:

  • Gym access
  • Swimming
  • Eligible daytime classes
  • Clubroom access
  • Changing and shower facilities
  • A quieter club experience
  • A lower membership price

Club Membership should not be confused with the general term “David Lloyd club membership.” The capitalised Club package refers to a specific off-peak access plan.

David Lloyd Club Membership Access Hours

The officially published Club Membership access times are:

DayClub Membership access
Monday11:00 AM–4:00 PM
Tuesday11:00 AM–4:00 PM
Wednesday11:00 AM–4:00 PM
Thursday11:00 AM–4:00 PM
Friday11:00 AM–4:00 PM
SaturdayAfter 2:00 PM
SundayAfter 2:00 PM

Bank holiday access, closing times and special restrictions may vary.

For example, weekend access beginning after 2:00 PM does not mean the club stays open for the same number of hours at every location. You must check your home club’s closing time.

What Facilities Are Included in Club Membership?

Club Membership gives off-peak access to selected core facilities at the home club.

Facilities vary by location, but the package generally focuses on the gym, pool and eligible classes.

Equipment and gym layout vary by location.

2. Swimming-Pool Access

What Is Not Included in Club Membership?

Club Membership is cheaper because several premium benefits are excluded.

Racquet Sports

The standard Club package does not include regular racquet-sport access.

This may include:

  • Tennis
  • Padel
  • Squash
  • Badminton

David Lloyd’s booking rules may allow members without racquet-inclusive membership to book an available court on the day by paying an additional charge.

This is not the same as having racquets included in the membership.

Blaze Classes

Blaze is David Lloyd’s high-intensity boutique-style workout.

It combines activities such as:

  • Treadmill running
  • Strength training
  • Boxing-style movements
  • Heart-rate monitoring
  • High-intensity intervals

Blaze normally requires Platinum membership and is not included with Club Membership.

Luxury Spa Retreat Access

Premium Spa Retreat and Spa Garden facilities are not included in the standard Club package.

Premium spa facilities may include:

  • Himalayan salt sauna
  • Aromatherapy steam room
  • Heated relaxation beds
  • Ice cave
  • Plunge pool
  • Experience shower
  • Hydro pool
  • Outdoor Spa Garden
  • Adult-only relaxation spaces

These facilities vary by location and are generally associated with Platinum access.

Multi-Club Access

Club Membership is generally limited to the member’s home club.

It does not include standard access to multiple David Lloyd clubs.

Members who need to use several locations should compare Platinum pricing and confirm which clubs are included under the tier system.

Monthly Guest Pass

Club Membership does not include a complimentary monthly guest pass.

Members may still be able to purchase a guest pass at their home club. Guest prices and restrictions vary by location.

Complimentary Towels

Club members should normally bring their own towel.

A fresh towel on every visit is listed as a Platinum benefit rather than a Club Membership benefit.

Membership Discounts

Club Membership does not include the standard Platinum:

  • 10% Bar and Restaurant discount
  • 10% discount on eligible DL Kids courses

Do not assume the lower Club price includes premium discounts.

Is Club Membership the Cheapest David Lloyd Package?

Club is generally the least inclusive and potentially lowest-cost main package because of its restricted access hours.

However, David Lloyd does not guarantee that the Club package is available at every location.

The actual cheapest option at a specific club may depend on:

  • Local package availability
  • Corporate membership
  • Promotional joining offer
  • Couple pricing
  • Family structure
  • A young-person option
  • Club-specific membership categories

Request all available options before choosing.

Standard Club Membership Cost

Standard membership has an initial 12-calendar-month term.

A practical planning estimate is:

Standard Club MembershipEstimated cost
Monthly payment£75–£100
12-month membership payments£900–£1,200
Possible joining charges£0–£150+
Estimated first-year total£900–£1,350+

This does not include optional services.

Standard membership continues after the initial period until it is properly cancelled under the applicable membership terms.

Do not assume that payments automatically end after 12 months.

Flexible Club Membership Cost

Flexible membership has an initial three-calendar-month term.

It provides a shorter initial commitment but may have a higher monthly rate.

Flexible Club MembershipEstimated cost
Monthly payment£85–£120
Initial three-month payments£255–£360
Possible joining charges£0–£150+
Estimated initial total£255–£510+

Flexible membership also continues after its initial term until the required notice is provided.

It is not the same as a cancel-anytime membership from the first day.

Clubs Where the Three-Month Option May Be Unavailable

David Lloyd’s official package page currently states that three-month membership is unavailable at:

  • Bury St Edmunds
  • Colliers Wood
  • Edinburgh Shawfair
  • Harlow
  • Herne Bay
  • Notting Hill
  • Rugby

Availability can change, so check directly with the selected club.

Individual Club Membership

Individual membership is available for adults over 18.

The estimated cost is approximately:

  • £75–£100 per month on a Standard agreement
  • £85–£120 per month on a Flexible agreement

The exact price depends on the location and offer.

Couple Club Membership

Two eligible adults can join as a couple.

David Lloyd does not publish one national couple price.

Couple membership may provide a lower combined price than purchasing two separate individual memberships.

Ask the club for:

Price comparisonAmount
First adult Club Membership£___
Second adult membership£___
Total couple price£___
Two separate individual memberships£___
Monthly couple saving£___
Annual couple saving£___

Also ask what happens to the price if one person later leaves the membership.

Family Club Membership

Adults can add eligible children to their membership.

David Lloyd currently identifies child categories including:

  • Children up to two years old
  • Children aged three to 18

Family pricing depends on:

  • Number of adults
  • Number of children
  • Ages of children
  • Club location
  • Contract type
  • Package availability
  • Children’s activities selected

Club Membership’s off-peak access restrictions may also apply to linked family members.

Check whether the permitted hours match:

  • School finish times
  • Family swimming sessions
  • Kids’ Club timetable
  • Crèche hours
  • Weekend family activities

A cheaper package may not offer good value when family activities take place outside the allowed hours.

How Much Does Club Membership Cost Per Visit?

Your cost per visit depends on how frequently you attend.

The following example uses a £90 monthly membership.

Visits per monthEffective cost per visit
4 visits£22.50
6 visits£15
8 visits£11.25
12 visits£7.50
16 visits£5.63
20 visits£4.50

Someone attending only once per week may receive less value than someone visiting three or four times per week.

Who Is Club Membership Best For?

Club Membership may work well for:

  • Retired people
  • Remote workers
  • Self-employed people
  • Shift workers
  • Parents available during school hours
  • Students with flexible timetables
  • People who prefer quieter daytime workouts
  • Members mainly interested in gym and swimming
  • People who do not need racquet sports
  • Members who do not use premium spa facilities

Who Should Avoid Club Membership?

Club Membership may not suit people who:

  • Exercise before work
  • Visit after 4:00 PM on weekdays
  • Need weekend morning access
  • Play tennis, padel, squash or badminton regularly
  • Want Blaze classes
  • Want luxury Spa Retreat access
  • Need multi-club access
  • Frequently bring guests
  • Need classes offered only during peak hours
  • Have an unpredictable work schedule

Do not choose the cheapest package until you compare its hours with your actual weekly routine.

Is David Lloyd Club Membership Worth It?

Club Membership can offer good value when:

  • You can regularly attend during off-peak hours.
  • Your home club has a high-quality gym and pool.
  • Suitable classes run during the day.
  • You visit several times per week.
  • You do not need premium benefits.
  • The local price is considerably lower than Plus.

It may provide poor value when:

  • You miss most weekday access hours.
  • Your preferred classes run in the evening.
  • You regularly need weekend morning access.
  • You pay extra for courts or premium facilities.
  • Plus costs only slightly more.
  • You visit infrequently.

Club Membership vs Plus: Which Is Better?

Choose Club when price is your main priority and off-peak hours fit your routine.

Choose Plus when you need unrestricted home-club access but do not need Platinum benefits.

Example Comparison

FeatureClubPlus
Estimated monthly price£75–£100Approximately £95–£130
Weekday hours11 AM–4 PMUnrestricted
Weekend hoursAfter 2 PMUnrestricted
GymYesYes
PoolYesYes
Standard classesOff-peakUnrestricted
RacquetsNoNo
Premium spaNoNo
Best forDaytime usersMorning and evening users

The exact price difference must be obtained from the club.

When Plus costs only a small amount more, unrestricted access may provide better practical value.

Club Membership vs Platinum: Which Is Better?

Choose Platinum when you regularly use premium facilities such as:

  • Racquet sports
  • Blaze
  • Luxury Spa Retreat
  • Multiple clubs
  • Complimentary towels
  • Monthly guest pass
  • Restaurant discount
  • DL Kids course discount

Choose Club when you use only the gym, pool and standard daytime facilities.

Paying for Platinum is difficult to justify when premium benefits remain unused.
