Quick Answer
David Lloyd Colliers Wood opened in November 2025 after an £18 month build at Merton Abbey, South West London. As a brand new flagship site, it sits in the Super Tier band: roughly £155 to £240 a month for adults in 2026, depending on tier, contract length, and family upgrades.
Joining fees are typically waived for the launch cohort and the first wave of post opening members, so the negotiation point in 2026 is the monthly rate, not the upfront fee.

More on how much is David Lloyd Colliers Wood and what to expect at the tour
When asking how much is David Lloyd Colliers Wood, do not stop at the headline monthly number. The site opened in late 2025 with a launch cohort framework that will run through most of 2026, which means the rate you sign on depends heavily on how busy the consultant's pipeline is in the week of your tour and whether founder pricing is still open.
A useful comparator is the cost of running the equivalent stack of services outside the club: a spa day every fortnight, a reformer Pilates class every week, a tennis court hire each weekend and a daily gym session. Priced individually, that stack lands well above the Super Tier Platinum rate, which is why so many members at Colliers Wood treat the membership as a lifestyle replacement rather than a gym subscription.
Practical playbook for the tour at Colliers Wood
- Book the tour midweek mid afternoon for the most negotiation room.
- Walk in willing to sign a 12 month contract for the strongest discount.
- Ask explicitly about founder cohort rates and whether the launch joining fee waiver still applies.
- Push for a free first month or a half price first month in addition to the waived joining fee.
- Get the exact annual price rise cap in writing before you sign.
- Confirm reformer Pilates inclusion, Blaze access, and any limits on the Spa Retreat treatment menu.
Members who follow that playbook typically sign at the low end of the Super Tier band and lock in 12 months of stable pricing on a brand new flagship site.
