Yes, to use the inflatables you should be able to swim at least 50m with a buoyancy aid on.

Buoyancy aids MUST be worn at all times when using the inflatables. These are provided free of charge.

For inflatable sessions any child under 8 requires direct supervision in the water at a maximum of 1 adult : 3 children ratio. The supervising adult will require their own ticket for the session. Any child under 12 must be supervised on site by a parent or responsible adult. You do not have to supervise them directly in the water although this would be recommended if they are a weaker swimmer.

For general swimming, a 1:3 ratio of adults to children under 8 is required.

Yes, we provide buoyancy aids for anyone who needs/wants to wear one. You are welcome to bring your own if you’d prefer. These will be checked for suitability on arrival and lifeguards may insist you use our buoyancy aids. Armbands or rubber rings are not suitable alternatives.

You will be allowed to enter the site from 15 minutes before your session start time. We advise arriving at least 10 minutes before your session start time. This allows time to check in, change, hire wetsuits and receive a safety briefing from lifeguards.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer time extensions for any reason. If you miss part or all of your session, we will not offer a refund. At our discretion we may be able to accommodate you in a later session, but we have strict capacity limits, so this is not guaranteed.

As we have limited space, we kindly ask that you aim to leave the site within 15 minutes of your session ending unless you are ordering food from the kiosk. This is to allow people booked into the next session space to enjoy the site as much as you have.

Yes

If we must cancel sessions due to extreme weather, we will notify you as soon as possible. You will be offered a full refund or to rearrange your session. If your session is interrupted by a passing thunderstorm, we will pause your session and restart when safe. This may mean later sessions are delayed.

Wetsuits are optional. However, people often find their session more comfortable and enjoyable with a wetsuit. You may bring your own, or we have wetsuits available to hire for £5 per person an arrival.

This is an unheated pool, so water temperature fluctuates throughout the season. It typically ranges between 15-25 degrees in the summer months. If you are attending a session early in the season (April-May) the water temperature can be as low as 10 degrees so wetsuits are strongly advised.
