What visitors say

P B Wilson

Lovely spot, ple ty of space to chill by the pool. Pool temperature perfect. Ice creams etc reasonably priced. Showers a little dodgy but good enough

A nice pool in a lovely location. The pool is set in the grounds of the village community centre, so plenty of space around the pool, which I imagine is ideal for summer days and picnics at the pool. We went for an evening adult swim session which was £5 per person, booked online via the website. The staff were friendly and helpful. Male and female changing rooms are relatively small, but there is a nice hot shower (with body wash) and toilets. No lockers, but belongings can be left by the pool. The main pool is 20m and was toasty at around 28° when we visited. There is also a learner pool next to the main pool. Ample parking in the community centre car park and a good range of cakes if you need a post-swim treat!

I absolutely adored this place. Lovely pool and great setting. Easy to park. Good value. So important to support wonderful facilities in village settings. I will be getting back regularly, season allowing.

Love it here this is the second time visiting here. Stopped off on our way to Scotland to break up the journey. The pool is very warm and comfortable to get in.
