Sadly, we are now closed
Following the government’s instruction, unfortunately due to Covid-19 Coronavirus the site is closed as of close of business on 20/03/20 until further notice.
We will keep you updated via our website and social media accounts with information regarding reopening.
As most of you will be aware, we are a charitable organisation and if you are able to continue to support us it would be greatly appreciated. We are working on ways in which you will be able to help in the near future and will keep you updated as these plans develop.
We encourage you where possible to stay active, stay healthy and to come together as a community as we all navigate our way through this uncertain time.
Hopefully see you all soon.
Team Hampton Pool
Normally... our water is warm all year around
Welcome to the heated water of our open air pools. Hampton Pool, known as “South West London’s best kept secret” is situated next to Royal Bushy Park. Our main pool is 36 metres long and we also have a learner pool dedicated to children and their parents.
The Sunday Times described us as “one of Britain’s coolest, biggest, hippest pools”.
The water in our pools is heated throughout the year. We provide for the community 365 days of outdoor swimming, yes, you can even have a swim on Christmas Day! more...
Our pools are monitored by a team of professional lifeguards, providing a safe environment for swimmers of all ages and abilities.
The main pool is split in half at all times to allow for lane swimming on one side and family swimming and fun on the other.
Spend a day with us swimming and lazing in the sunshine, remember it’s cheaper and warmer than a family trip to the seaside. Customers even tell us that a day at Hampton Pool is like being on holiday!
We also offer limited free parking.
