What visitors say
My first visit today. Lovely little place. Friendly staff, great pool. Yes the facilities are basic but spotless. Bit of a drive from where I live but worth it. I’ll be back 😊

Lovely pool nestled in beautiful countryside, friendly staff, comes equipped with kiosk selling drinks and snacks, changing rooms and sauna. Heated to a perfect temperature throughout the summer months, and then gradually cooled and available for cold water swims. A perfect place for a relaxing, peaceful swim, walking distance from Helmsley.

A fantastic outdoor pool with incredible views. We’ve been twice, and it never disappoints. I recommend booking tickets online because, upon arrival, every session is sold out, so it’s unlikely you’ll get tickets at the door. Pack a picnic and make a day of it! 🧜♀️💫

Fantastic open air pool. Great for a swim or a family day out. The family fun time with all the floats was great for the kids, but other swim sessions allow for laps if that's your thing. There are tables and chairs around the pool, and you can take in food and drink for picknicks and snacks (no glass or alcohol though!). Each session is around 1hr 45 and with numbers being controlled, doesn't get too overcrowded. The staff are friendly, the pool well maintained and a good temperature once you're in. We had a great day out! Would highly recommend - especially with a little tub of Yorkshire ice cream from the tuck shop after! 😁 The changing rooms could do with an upgrade which they're currently fundraising for. Lovely, local pool, well worth a visit!
