Great place, we’re regular visitors when we’re there on holiday. Excellent little cafe too. Don’t be caught out by Google’s opening hours over the winter though: it closes from mid-September to around Easter time.
My kids absolutely love this place but be warned it is FREEZING 🥶. My son lasted 20 mins and my daughter the full 2 hour session ! We had a large chips between the 2 kids for £3.60 which I thought was going to be 3 chips each but there were plenty for a 10&7 year old, they also had a lolly and a drink each. Parking is easy and also can access Hayle beach from this point if you do not wish to pay for parking at the carpark up top.
Booked tickets online. Entry is by the gate at the side right on your entry time. There was only 2 lifeguards but there weren't many of us booked in at the time. The changing rooms and toilets were both dirty. The website advertises showers. There was one shower in the ladies changing room with a meter by it asking for 20p. With the dirt all over the floor I really didn't fancy using this and changed outside under my towel. The pool is advertised as heated but it was freezing! It hadn't been the nicest of days though so I bet on a lovely blue sky day it warms to a lovely temperature. There is a cafe on site serving snacks, drinks and ice creams but we didn't use it. You are asked to leave the pool 15 minutes before the end of your 2 hour session. Unfortunately we only managed an hour so can't comment on this rule. Would go back and hopefully the changing room and toilets are cleaner next time.
I enjoy open water swimming and wasn't sure of the tides in the estuary so for safety I booked myself into this charming Lido. It was a drizzly day and the water was lovely, warmer than the Lake I usually swim. Other folks in the pool commented on the water being cold for them. The staff were polite and professional. I had a lovely swim and with certainly recommend the Lido.
Booked on line and also called up to enquire and the staff are so polite and friendly giving great advice. It's a popular place so please book on line to get a place. The pool is clean warm 👌 the venue is clean and 20p gets you a warm shower after a swim...no lockers but once everyone is in the doors are shut u have 3 life guards even when it rains its open 🤗 loved swimming here well done to the staff and local council great activity for families
