David Lloyd Rugby Membership Prices (2026): Prices & Facilities
A premium health club in Houlton, David Lloyd Rugby lets a toddler join for about £8.50 a month while a Platinum adult plan is quoted near £149.95. That spread reflects what sits behind each tier: a gym, indoor and outdoor pools, a Spa Retreat, tennis and padel courts, and a crèche. Rates also change with age, couple status, off-peak access and contract length, and David Lloyd does not publish them, so every figure here is indicative.
This guide lays out 2026 prices for individuals, couples, children, seniors and corporate members, then moves through joining fees, day passes, opening times, reviews and facilities, closing with practical tips and answers to common questions, so each plan can be compared against its facilities.

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.
How Much Is a Day Pass at David Lloyd Rugby?
A day pass allows a trial of the gym, pools, spa and classes without a contract. Passes can be bought online, through the app or at reception.
| Pass Type | Typical Price |
|---|---|
| Individual Day Pass | £25 |
| Family Day Pass | About £45 |
| Guest Pass | £25–£35 |
- Prices may vary with time of visit and offers
- A day pass is the lowest-risk way to test peak-hour crowding
- Visit at the hours you would normally train
Is There a Trial or Contract Length to Know About?
One source states that the 3-month flexible trial is not offered at Rugby. It reports a 12-month initial commitment that then rolls monthly.
This conflicts with the flexible prices shown in the tables. Confirm contract terms with the club before signing.

How Does David Lloyd Rugby Compare With PureGym Rugby?
PureGym costs far less, but it lacks the spa, pools and courts. The PureGym figure below comes from competitor guides, so check it on PureGym’s own site.
| Feature | David Lloyd Rugby | PureGym Rugby |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost (from) | About £79.50 | About £17.99 |
| Contract | 12-month, then rolling | No contract |
| Spa and sauna | Yes | No |
| Indoor pool | Yes | No |
| Outdoor pool | Yes | No |
| Tennis and padel | Yes | No |
| Group classes | 100+ per week | Moderate |
| Crèche and family facilities | Yes | No |
| Day pass | £25 | Available |
| Personal training | Yes | Yes |
PureGym suits budget-focused members who want straightforward gym access. David Lloyd suits households who want a wider wellness and family setup.
Is David Lloyd Rugby Worth It?
The value case rests on how many facilities get used. A single membership covers the spa, pools, courts and crèche, none of which come with a budget gym.
- Families can train while children join supervised activities
- Frequent visitors lower the cost per visit
- Gym-only members may find a cheaper option more practical
- Peak evenings (5–7pm) can be busy, so book through the app
What Does a Visit Cost at Different Frequencies?
This is an illustrative calculation using the reported £94.50 Standard monthly price.
| Visits per week | Visits per month (approx.) | Cost per visit |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 8.7 | ~£10.90 |
| 3 | 13 | ~£7.27 |
| 4 | 17.3 | ~£5.46 |
Compared with a reported £25 day pass, regular use beats paying per visit.
Mini-Case Study 1: The Spa-and-Swim Member
Someone swims twice and uses the spa once each week. At the reported Standard price that is about £7.27 per visit, versus £25 per day pass. A cheaper gym would cover neither pool nor spa.
Mini-Case Study 2: The Young Family
One adult and one 5–13-year-old on reported Standard and child prices come to roughly £118.63 per month (£94.50 + £24.13). The crèche and kids’ classes let the adult train or use the spa while the child is occupied.
