What visitors say
This is my favourite pool for lunch time swims. The staff is friendly, main car park usually not full, but there is overflow car park on the back. Unfortunately sauna is still out of order.

Unfortunately toilets are awful. The staff also seem to pay very little attention to what people wear around the pool area. I often see individuals wearing clothing that is clearly not intended for swimming. Today, support workers arrived with a disabled boy. They entered the pool area wearing outdoor clothes. They were not swimming, but they stood right next to the pool. I am not saying they should have been required to wear swimwear, but they could at least have put on flip-flops or pool shoes. Instead, they were walking around in their regular outdoor shoes, which is unhygienic and unacceptable.

Friendly staff. Swimming pool is clean warm with a max depth of 1.6m and a good minimum for the kids. My kids love it.
