We are currently operating a booking system for our Fun Pool which will be in place at Peak swim times. 

These are all Weekends, Bank Holidays and Monday to Friday during school holidays.

Please note Monday to Friday during the school term times we will not be operating a booking system.  This decision will constantly be under review and if the sessions become too busy then we will look to put a booking system in place.  The pool timetable for this time can be viewed on our pool timetable page.

​

The local school holiday dates can be found via a link on our FAQ page.

 

Prices are as normal according to our price list and are per session.  Our prices can be viewed on our Prices and Memberships page.   We offer discounted rates for 60+, disabled and student customers for some facilities, please be advised proof of eligibility may be required when entering the building on one of these rates.  For disabled users we are able to register your proof so that you do not have to show it on each visit.  Please bring proof of eligibility (PIP or blue badge) and ask at reception on your next visit to receive one of our disabled user cards.  for disabled customers one carer may enter free.  Please note that the carer is there for support and may not use the gym equipment themselves when entering for free.  The carer may use the pool in order to support the disabled user.

Spectators fees are available for anyone wishing to enter the building to watch and not swim.  Spectators are not available as a ticket option but can be added on as an extra on the following page.
