join the pool party
Whether you do it for fitness, for relaxation or simply just for fun… there is nothing better than jumping right in and having a swim! In fact it’s the nation’s favourite exercise as almost 3 million of us do it for at least 30 minutes a week.
There is a reason that swimming is such a popular activity, as no matter what your age or ability, swimming gives you a great workout. It is good for muscle strength, it helps support your mental health by reducing stress and anxiety, plus it helps with injury and rehabilitation. So what’s not to love!?
We offer pay as you go swim sessions or if you are a regular swimmer you can purchase a 6 month or 12 month swim pass
timetable
Our 25m 6 lane pool is accessible at most times of the day, with sessions available either via pay as you go when arriving or included for free within our membership package. Our full timetable of sessions is listed below:
A FEW POOL RULES
We don’t want to spoil the fun of making a splash, but whilst you’re in the pool there are a few simple rules to follow:
All swimmers must follow directional signs at the end of the pool
Please use most suitable lane for your speed and stroke, taking in to consideration other users stay to the outside edge of the lane
Be polite to swimmers of varying skill levels
If you find yourself catching up with a swimmer in front of you, give their toes a polite tap to let them know that you need to pass. Do not use rude gestures
Please use caution when overtaking other swimmers
Please give faster swimmers the opportunity to let you pass. Do not harass or try to swim over them
If you cannot keep up with the pace, please change lanes.
You will be asked to move lane if the lifeguard feels it is necessary
The use of face masks, flippers and snorkels is prohibited
Respect other swimmers personal space
