Swimming Pool

The versatility of these pools enable them to be used for a variety of activities including; public swim sessions, aqua fit classes and dedicated lane swimming.

As well as the main pools we also have a dedicated learner pool.

With a depth range up to 0.9 metres, this pool is ideal for introducing smaller children to water.
