Fancy a swim at Bakewell Swimming Pool? Emma suggests booking your session in advance. Don't forget to bring your own towels and swimwear, although some essentials can be picked up on-site. Changing rooms and showers are available for your convenience.
Wondering about snacks or a quick bite? There’s a café where you can refuel after a swim. They offer a range of snacks, beverages, and light meals.
Thinking about bringing the kids? Emma assures parents that the pool is family-friendly and always under the watchful eyes of certified lifeguards, making it safe for everyone, including beginners. Plus, swimming lessons are offered for all ages, taught by qualified instructors to help everyone improve their skills and confidence in the water.
Looking to plan a special event? You can hire the pool for private events or parties. It’s a fun and unique venue for any celebration.
Considering membership? There are options for both individuals and families, with various packages providing unlimited swimming sessions and gym access not just at Bakewell but at participating leisure centres too.
Located on Granby Road in Bakewell, Derbyshire, the pool is managed by Freedom Leisure in partnership with Derbyshire Dales District Council. With ample parking, it’s convenient for both locals and visitors.
Emma rounds off by warmly inviting everyone to Bakewell Swimming Pool, where you can enjoy the benefits of an active and healthy lifestyle. Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned swimmer, there’s something for everyone here.
