Baby Swim, 1 Hour
About baby swim sessions
Swim sessions are 1 hour.
Baby sessions are for parents to come for a quieter swim with their babies, and meet other parents. It is not a swimming lesson.
Under 3's are free of charge. Swim nappies must be worn where needed, there are nappies available free of charge at the kiosk.
Spectators are free of charge. Siblings welcome, over 3's must have a ticket.
Under 12s must be supervised by an adult. An adult must be in the pool with a baby on a 1:1 ratio.
There is plenty of parking close to the pool.
We have snacks, tea, coffee, ice creams and cold drinks available at the kiosk, where we take cash and card payments.
There's play equipment and and a beautiful green just outside the pool.
