25-metre pool with an unusually large shallow end, making it one of the most accessible local options for beginners and young swimmers. Swimming lessons and family splash sessions run regularly.

โœ“ Large shallow endโœ“ Friendly lifeguardsโœ“ Facility conditionโœ“ Accessible hoistsโœ“ Splash sessions

๐Ÿ† Funzaroo Verdict

The large shallow end is a genuine asset for children learning to swim and the lifeguards earn real trust from parents. Facility condition is the overriding problem: broken toilets, hygiene notes, and a reported fire exit blockage are not minor issues. Families with disabled children have faced access difficulties.

โ„น๏ธ What to Know Before You Go

๐Ÿ’กBring flip-flops and a change of footwear - floor hygiene in changing areas is a consistent complaint
โฐConfirm accessible facilities are operational before your visit if you need poolside hoist or disabled changing
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธThe shallow end is unusually large - worth calling ahead to check splash session availability for your age group
๐Ÿš—Speak to a lifeguard rather than reception if you have an in-session concern; lifeguards receive far better reviews

โ€œBeeches pool is my favourite place to go for a swim. They have a very large shallow end for children and new swimmers. So if you want to learn swimming, i highly recommend this pool. The staff and lifeguards are very friendly and helpful. The building is not very big, which works in its favour because It feels like a family run business. The toilets and changing rooms do need a refurbishment but I still prefer this pool compared to others.โ€

Overview

Beeches Pool features a 25-metre pool with a substantial shallow end that stands out for young and beginner swimmers. Poolside hoists and ground-floor accessible changing rooms are in place. Family splash sessions include floats and toys. Lifeguards receive consistent praise. The building fabric - toilets, walls, and general maintenance - is in poor condition and fire exit access has been blocked by staff equipment storage according to recent visitors.
