Great outdoor pool, not over crowded and in full sun so wasn't cold. Toilets clean, mini cafe on site for refreshments. Lovely 😍

I love this place, you have to book in advance for lane swimming most of the time because it is very popular. I've been visiting for around 3-4 years now and they've made some great changes around the pool to make you feel even more welcome. The pool is usually nice and warm in the summer and the facilities are always clean. Above all, because of the size of it there is a lovely atmosphere around the place, everyone is always smiling. This year i have booked a 10 swim pass which is great value, I expect i might need to buy a second! My only criticism is that lane swimming sessions are 1 hour long, the pool tends to empty out after 45 mins, shortening them would open an extra couple of sessions a day.

A Perfect Day at Woburn Lido From the moment I arrived at Woburn Lido, I knew I was in for a treat. Nestled in the charming village of Woburn, this historic outdoor pool is a hidden gem that offers a delightful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The first thing that struck me was the stunning Art Deco architecture. The beautifully restored changing rooms, with their vibrant tiles and classic arches, transported me back to the 1930s. It was like stepping into a different era, and I couldn’t help but admire the attention to detail that has gone into preserving this piece of history. As I dipped my toes into the crystal-clear water, I was pleasantly surprised by the perfect temperature. The pool is heated to a comfortable 26°C, making it ideal for a leisurely swim or a more vigorous workout. The separate paddling pool for children is a thoughtful touch, ensuring that families can enjoy their time here without any worries. The atmosphere at Woburn Lido is incredibly relaxing. Surrounded by lush greenery, the pool area feels like a tranquil oasis. I spent hours lounging by the pool, soaking up the sun, and taking refreshing dips whenever I felt like it. The friendly staff were always on hand, making sure everything was just right. One of the highlights of my visit was the sense of community. Locals and visitors alike come together here, creating a warm and welcoming environment. I had some lovely conversations with fellow swimmers, sharing stories and tips about the best spots in the area. After a day of swimming and relaxation, I treated myself to a delicious snack from the on-site kiosk. The selection of refreshments was impressive, and I enjoyed a tasty ice cream while basking in the late afternoon sun. As the day came to an end, I couldn’t help but feel grateful for this wonderful experience. Woburn Lido is more than just a swimming pool; it’s a place where memories are made. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat or a fun day out with family and friends, Woburn Lido is the perfect destination.

At a time when getting to a beach was hindered by COVID related issues being able to swim in the open air in a clean and well maintained pool was my guilty pleasure. The staff are friendly & approachable and the pool is open longer hours than some leisure centres. Summer season (which means the heating is on) runs from June to September although the pool remains open throughout the winter months for cold water sessions. Refreshments, including coffee, and Ice creams in the summer, are available on site and card payment is accepted. During a mini monsoon season (September '24) they did the utmost to open as much as possible between thunder storms, which force closure for safety reasons.

Had been meaning to go to the pool for a while - Woke up, decided I fancied it, went online booked and paid for a session, nice and easy, shows you availability on different days for the different sessions they do. I didn't try the car park knowing it's small, instead opting for the larger car park just 2 min walk down the road at the village hall (next to a kids park) best to go here unless you're elderly/disabled/got very little kids. The pool is clean and well maintained, as are the changing rooms, there's seating round the pool but space is limited so don't expect sun loungers - although there is a grass area at the end of the pool where you could stretch out on a towel. There's also a cafe on site for hot and cold drinks, snacks and ice creams. Lovely pool, lovely staff, will be back regularly ☺️☺️
