Reviews
"Nice place to swim, kids love it. But a little expensive for an outdoor unheated pool? Plus a lot of bird poo around the pool that wasn't cleared and then was going into the pool on people’s feet - I spoke to the person in charge about this and they thought the chlorine would sort it, weren't very concerned."
