Penylan Library and Community Centre
Penylan Leisure Centre on Pen-y-Lan Road is a family-focused hub in the heart of Penylan, close to Roath Park. Our compact gym has cardio machines and free weights to keep your fitness on track, with a functional training zone for workouts that build strength and movement. The real draw here is our multi-level soft play area, where younger children can climb, slide and explore in a safe space built just for them. We offer yoga, Pilates and dance fitness classes each week, giving you options to move and unwind. Throw birthday parties here with dedicated packages that make celebrating easy.
