A minimum of two responsible adults (aged 18 or over) must be present on the poolside at all times during private hire sessions. At least one responsible adult should remain on the poolside while the pool is in use.
- Child Supervision Ratios: Children under 8 years of age and all non-swimmers must be accompanied in the water by a responsible adult at a maximum ratio of 1 adult to 2 children. Parents and guardians remain responsible for the safety and supervision of their children at all times.
- Pool Dimensions: The swimming pool measures 10 metres x 4.5 metres and has a constant depth of 1.38 metres throughout. There is no shallow or deep end, making it suitable for recreational swimming, family use and exercise.
- Arrival Time: Please arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before your scheduled slot to ensure the previous group has safely vacated the changing rooms.
- Water Temperature: The pool is heated to an average temperature of 31°C. For babies under 12 months of age, we recommend that parents or guardians seek advice from their healthcare provider regarding the appropriate length of time their baby should spend in the water.
