UK pool intelligence
Only 130 UK hotels list an outdoor pool. Most outdoor pools are at holiday parks and cottages. By nation:
Outdoor season
Outdoor pools in the UK are often open only in the warmer months, so check dates with the hotel before you book.
Months confirmed across checked outdoor pools will show here.
Day passes
Around 500 public swimming pools have closed in England since 2010, according to Swim England and ukactive (2025). Some hotels let non-residents swim with a day pass or leisure club membership.

Only when one of our editors has actually swum in the pool.
Where details are marked 'Not yet checked', we only show what we know for certain: whether there's a pool and whether it's indoor or outdoor.
