I don't write reviews very often, but I felt I really had to after our visit today. We had a thoroughly brilliant time. ​The pool is fantastic, clean, heated and beautifully looked after. What's most impressive, though, is that the entire place is run by volunteers. It’s quite unbelievable that a community effort can deliver something of such high quality. Everyone we encountered was incredibly welcoming, kind and efficient. ​It’s an absolute gem of a place and we'll certainly be making this another. A huge thank you to the volunteers who put so much hard work into keeping it going!

Amazing, the pool was lush, the floats are so much fun, it can get a bit chaotic with the amount of people in the pool, but it was great fun and clean, just remember you need 20p change to have a shower in the changing room!

Great first experience and swim. I was a bit wary about trying, but couldn't have been more impressed. From Ian helping on the phone with extra accommodations to greeting me in person. Thanks also to Tam and Sally for helping me set up an account with patience. The pool was lovely and clean, changing rooms spotless and a lovely atmosphere. I am recovering from a slipped disc in my back, the whole team were lovely and caring to the point that a male lifeguard took the time to check in that I was ok. Really lovely place with a great vibe. Thank you!

Visited on 26/8/25 bank holiday Monday (28 degrees) , arrived around 4.30pm and only had to wait 5 minutes to get in. The staff were lovely and the pool was clean and well maintained. Water did feel a little chilly but once you was in it soon warmed up. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Lovely outdoor swimming pool! Originally opened up in 1870! It is heated but only heated to 26 degrees, so can be still cold 🥶 - the facilities are lovely and clean! Tuck shop is reasonably prices! They have loads of seating area and they encourage you bring your own food! They dont have bins but will take their own rubbish back! As they recycle and the public werent doing it probably! Another downside is the isnt any parking on site, so we parked at abbey grounds and walks through some public footpaths, about 5-10min walk. The is 1 slide and the is a little pool for little ones and they have some water toys for children to play with! Also the isnt a time limit on your stay, we turned up at 2pm when drop inn swim time opens and we stayed til 4.30pm.
