Fabulous place for a swim on a hot Sunday afternoon to cool down. The water isn't heated but they have the temperature on the gate just so people are aware. It was very busy with people sitting poolside soaking up the sun, or having a dip. Gave it a bash and once I put my feet in to test it out - went straight for a jump and landed right in the middle making sure I didn't land on anyone. It's definitely a long pool at 91m so swimming that distance was definitely a workout. Nice onside cafe as well and lots of changing facilities split into male and female. They do have tokens for lockers to keep your stuff safe but people do leave their bags by the pool. Will be back next summer ☀️

Beautiful ambience and atmosphere. If you want to do swim training, it’s better to go in the evening or on a less sunny day. The place could use some renovation, but it would need to be done very carefully so the Lido doesn’t lose its charm.

Fab place for a swim. It's very long at 100 yards or 91 metres. Early in the morning divided into slow, medium and fast lanes. Some of the slow lane was reserved for swimming lessons but still left around 50m available. Can pay as you go or get a discounted rates if you're a member. Sauna can be added on for a few pounds extra. Water isn't heated but wasn't too chilly, 20° on a cloudy July day. Recommend flip-flops to walk between shower and changing rooms as stone ground has leaves and other bits of trees falling on it. Café on site with coffees and snacks. Reception provide a token for the lockers or some people leave their bag on a poolside bench.

This is such a fabulous facility. Being a Long poll it gives a different experience from a standard indoor or 25m pool. Unheated other than by the sun. Great changing and shower facilities, toilets, friendly staff. A really good place to have some longer swim practice plus it’s shallow at both ends so no deep end issues that some people experience. The whole place is amazing. Clean and well looked after, just great. We travel 70 miles each way to visit it, it’s that good! In the winter it is cold but amazing, if you are a cold water swimmer it’s the best!

Took my wife here for her birthday - she loved it as did I though I'm not a great swimmer. 100yards was a long way for me. Nice setting. Great value fir money. Not heated bug I didn't find it that cold.

Great place. We went 6pm on a Saturday and not many people were in the pool. Water was 'fresh' and certainly woke me up! Friendly staff, and the facility had everything you needed.

Personally, I loved it, it feels like an old pool that I remember as a kid, it's 100 yards not meters, this time of year it really wasn't cold at all, open from 7am and you can book on line. Three wide lines, slow, medium and faster, a friendly and relaxed crowd and it felt nostalgic

The pool is magical on a November evening under the newly installed lights. A brisk 9.5C but showers are warm and the sauna hot.
