What visitors say
The swimming pool is the longest (and oldest maybe) in Europe. Great atmosphere in hot weather. Sauna. Cafè and little shop. Just a shame the bad conditions of the toilets, dirty, I don’t think someone is in charge to clean the toilets regularly during the day. Bathrooms flooded with stagnant water that can cause bacteria and fungi!

Amazing outdoors swimming pool, considering a lack of wild swimming locations is a great alternative. Pool length is 91 metres/100 yards. Is perfect for people training for triathlon or endurance swimming. Lanes are wide to accommodate comfortable training. On a downside pool cold be cleaned better from debris falling from the trees. Also surrounding facilities are quite worn out

Big pool and nice and deep . But no diving board and lots of lane swimmers so can’t play in without getting in the way

Lots of benches, not a lot of spots to sunbath, perfect for an afternoon cooldown dip when the temperature is above 30 celsius. Single but long pool divided to two so you can swim and dip
