A 25-yard Victorian pool praised by parents for outstanding family changing facilities. Separate sauna, gym, and aqua fitness classes on-site. Toddler-friendly with pram access and parking.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families with babies and toddlers. The family changing setup is genuinely exceptional - parents who've felt daunted by pool visits with infants consistently report this is the venue that made them want to return. Older children enjoy the 25-yard pool. Check timetables in advance, as class bookings fill lanes throughout the day and evening.

“Entering the sauna is like entering a madhouse for the only words that come up are - 'magnet' 'still no magnet' 'where is the magnet to close the door' When I was young the conversation was rich on politics, philosophy, meaning.' now it has crumbled down to why can't the manager fix this door for the sake of £5! 🤷♂️”

“We had a great experience going for a Family Swim here with our seven month old. The changing facilities are the best we’ve ever seen. Going swimming with a baby was daunting initially, but after visiting this pool once I’m excited to visit again soon. The family change setup makes it super easy and the staff are helpful and friendly.”

Busy class schedules mean general pool access can be tighter during peak hours - check the timetable before heading in.
