A fantastic, heated outdoor pool. A real treat. Very friendly, welcoming staff. Very nice changing rooms. Well worth a visit.

As a disabled person, on crutches, I was extremely impressed. We had booked in advance (recommended), and the staff were expecting us. We were treated so well. They knew our name, had the disabled access chair waiting for me, and showed us to our disabled changing room. We were well impressed. Two chairs. Big changing bed & hoist if needed. Lockers. Loo & sink, plus shower. My only wee moan, there could have been some hooks for hanging stuff on whilst changing, but certainly not a complaint! The staff were well acquainted with the accessible chair at the pool, and it was a lovely feeling being lowered into the warm water. You get a one hour slot (I didn't want to come out!) and TBH we really enjoyed our swim, and even the background music. LOL One of the staff went above & beyond, and sourced me a pool noodle which is always good for me, to help excercise in the pool. Overall, it was a fantastic, personal, welcoming & beneficial (physically & mentally) experience for us. Can't wait to go back! I'd also love to try a night time experience. Top marks to everyone involved at this wonderful place. 👍🏻

Hadn't been swimming for a while, so it was good to get back in the water. What made it extra special was the friendliness of the staff, the temperature of the pool & the cleanliness of the facilities. It was so nice to see so many parents & grandparents encouraging their children to swim. Great pool, had a lively swim.

Been wanting to visit here for months. Finally we had a Sunday with nothing on, so we packed up and off we went. Now, it was freezing cold and raining outside, but New Cumnock Pool posted a Facebook message saying the water was 31C. The wife was hesitant about the cold all the way during the drive. Even going as far as looking up alternatives nearby just in case. It was an hours drive for us and we arrived at 2:30pm. The kids had a great time and even the wife almost smiled. the pool was in great condition and everything was very clean. The staff were pleasant and we had a great visit. We will defo visit again. I just wish the pool was closer to home.
