Magrock haa been appointed main contractor to deliver a new £16m David Lloyd Leisure health club at Bunford Park, Yeovil.

Construction work will start this month with completion expected next summer.

The club will feature a premium gym equipped with the latest fitness technology, multiple exercise studios, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and a comprehensive wellness and spa offering. The dedicated spa retreat will include a Himalayan Salt Sauna, steam room, ice cave, plunge pool, hydrotherapy pool and an outdoor spa garden, creating a destination focused on holistic health and wellbeing.

The racquets element of the club will feature two indoor multi-use courts, three tennis courts within an enclosed air dome structure, six outdoor padel courts within a canopy covered area, as well as an outdoor multi-use games pitch and an outdoor ‘Battle Box’ exercise facility.

Located within the Bunford Park development, the scheme has been designed with a steel frame structure supported by concrete pad foundations and wrapped in composite cladding panels.

The building envelope incorporates a range of finishes, including timber and Corium brick slips, creating the appearance of traditional masonry while delivering a contemporary, high-quality architectural aesthetic.

Richard Brewer, Managing Director at Magrock, said: “We are delighted to have secured our first project with David Lloyd Leisure. This development represents a significant investment in the region, providing a first-class health, fitness and wellness destination for the local community and shows Magrock’s appetite to move into the leisure sector. ”
