Changing rooms

In 2019 the Lido invested in brand new changing rooms with showers and changing cubicles.

 

We have male, female and accessible changing rooms with toilets available.

​

All have open shower facilities.

Café Lido

The Lido has a newly refurbished Café on-site offering a wide range of hot and cold food and drinks.

Whether you're looking for a quick bite, something more substantial or a tea, coffee or ice-cream, you'll find it here at Café Lido

We're an unheated outdoor pool, the temperature can vary. You'll find today's pool temperature on the home page of the website, on our socials, and displayed at the Front of House.

Bicycles

Unfortunately we do not have a bike storage facility, if you are travelling by bike please secure your bicycle or scooter etc outside.

​

Office hours

Our front of house is open during all pool sessions, although as we are predominantly staffed by volunteers, it may not aways be possible to respond immediately.  Please be patient.

​

Alcohol and Glass

Please do not bring alcohol into the Lido. We also do not allow customers to bring glass in to the Lido either.

​

Paddling Pool

The paddling pool is open during General Public sessions, it is not open during adult lane swim sessions (as children are not allowed during these).
