A 222sq m (2,390sq ft) gym and an indoor group cycling studio are among the new fitness facilities unveiled as part of a £2m renovation of the Grade II-listed Wycombe Rye Lido.

The gym offers 50 stations of equipment supplied by Life Fitness, while new facilities also include a group exercise studio and revamped dry changing areas.

Fusion Lifestyle has been leading the project after securing a 50-year lease from Wycombe District Council. The opening of the fitness facilities marked the second phase of work.

The venue's outdoor pool received more than £1m worth of investment and is already open, while there are plans to transform three outdoor tennis courts into all-weather pitches.

A final stage of improvements will be completed shortly, which includes the addition of The Lido Kitchen café and a purpose-built meeting and activity room.

Fusion Lifestyle director of business development Tim Mills said: "This has been a major development for Fusion and to see the new gym and studios open and looking so good is very rewarding."
