David Lloyd Rugby Location Details

David Lloyd Rugby sits on Crick Road, to the east of the town centre, with free on-site parking and secure bike storage. The club is easy to reach whether you’re coming from central Rugby, Clifton upon Dunsmore, or the A428/A5 corridor. Use the map below to plan your route and get live directions straight to the entrance.

A Correction: This Isn’t a Rugby Sports Club

Several other guides describe David Lloyd Rugby as though it were built around the sport of rugby — mentioning “rugby fields,” “rugby coaching for kids,” and “elevating your rugby game” as part of the membership. This appears to be a genuine mix-up between the club’s name and the sport it happens to share a name with. David Lloyd Rugby is a standard David Lloyd health club — gym, pools, spa, tennis, and padel — located in the town of Rugby, Warwickshire. There are no rugby pitches, rugby coaching programmes, or any rugby-specific facilities here at all. If you were specifically looking for a club that offers rugby training, this isn’t it — you’d want a dedicated rugby club or sports centre instead.

About David Lloyd Rugby Club

David Lloyd Rugby is one of the newer clubs in the network, opened on 29 September 2023 as part of the Houlton development in Clifton upon Dunsmore. David Lloyd’s own press coverage of the launch confirms General Manager Jack Phillips spoke at the opening event, attended by local councillor Luke Russell and members of the Houlton community, alongside guided tours and food from Change Please — a genuine social enterprise coffee partner of David Lloyd’s, where proceeds support people experiencing homelessness with living-wage jobs, housing, and training.

Spa at Rugby

David Lloyd Rugby has a Spa Retreat and Spa Garden, including indoor and outdoor saunas, aromatherapy steam rooms, and plunge pools — the same “Spa Retreat” branding found at other recently built or refurbished David Lloyd clubs, suggesting this is now the standard design for new sites.

Gym at Rugby

The gym is fitted with modern equipment across cardio, free weights, and functional training, and includes David Lloyd’s Body Hub — a free analysis tool giving members data on hydration, muscle mass, weight, and “BioAge,” syncing with the David Lloyd app.

Family Facilities at Rugby

Beyond the standard crèche and kids’ activities, Rugby’s Clubroom has a kids zone with a soft play frame and an outdoor climbing frame — a specific detail not universal across every David Lloyd club. A jam-packed events calendar includes family game nights, quiz nights, and new-parent groups.

David Lloyd Facilities

Clubroom and Business Area

A Clubroom for social time and dining, plus a dedicated Business area for members combining a visit with remote work.

A Nod to Local History

David Lloyd’s own opening materials mention designing the club with “nods to Rugby’s rich history” — a fitting touch given the town’s global association with the sport that shares its name.

Is David Lloyd Rugby Worth It?

David Lloyd Rugby is worth the high cost if you regularly use multiple luxury amenities like the spa, pools, racquets, and group classes 3 to 4 times a week, but it offers poor value if you only plan to use a basic gym.

Likely worth it if:

  • You want a genuinely new-build club with modern facilities, being one of the more recently opened sites in the network
  • You’ll use the tennis, padel, spa, and pools regularly, which is where Platinum’s premium over standard access is best justified
  • You have children who’ll use the Kids Club and crèche

Probably not worth it if:

  • You mainly want gym-floor access — a budget gym nearby will cost a fraction of the price
  • You specifically wanted rugby training or facilities — this club doesn’t offer any, despite what some other guides suggest
