Amazing place. Located in a beautiful location, on the beautiful seaside, surrounded with beautiful castle ruins and deep history. We took children for a swim, swimming pool is open to public, just walk in.
We have visited here a lot. I think it has great potential but is gradually needing more repairs that haven't been done. The small slide is great for younger kids. The big slide great for able swimmers. Kids love the wave machine.
The snail and flag water things haven't worked for a long time. Lately the bubbles have stopped working. And the water spout now not working. On the last 2 visits.
The plastic mats you walk on to get to showers are cracked and falling apart in places. The vents in the loo were very dusty. The family change smelt of urine from the bin (I think). There were several plasters on the walkway down to the pool. I highlighted this and was cleaned up.
I think with repairs and some better cleaning this would be better place to visit.
Disappointed. Drove here from Edinburgh with my toddler after hearing how good the kids' facilities were. Website and pool timetable completely incomprehensible so tried to call twice to check opening times, no answer each time. Timetable showed lessons from 3:30 but arrived find the whole pool closed at 3pm for swimming lessons. No indication on website or timetable that whole pool closes for lessons. The two memebrs of staff on reception could not have been less interested and just directed me to the incorrect information on their website. Cue toddler metldown when told he can't go swimming, lady on reception just shrugged amd turned away. Awful service which is a shame because the facilities looked good through the glass.
Kids love this pool which has a flume, wave machine and toddler area. And a cafe where you can spectate. Family changing rooms are really hand with small kids in tow.
On Sunday, we attended Dunbar splash pool - my Partner's Son fell and burst his chin open (which was obviously a mistake) & the lifeguard was right in front of it happening. As you can imagine, it was very stressful without needing to approach the lifeguard myself to ask for a tissue & help from first aid, I emailed to make a complaint for the future with this being a family pool the lifeguards help should be stepped up a little. I have had 0 correspondence which I think is shocking. I love this pool, but seriously has been a major let down!
Mixed feelings about this place tbh
Pros:-
*Relaxed life guards with regards to jumping in.
*cheap entry.
*ample parking
Cons:-
*Dirty uncleaned facilities, worst I have ever experienced.
*Staff are rude and one woman was stinking and covered in dirt all over her uniform, actually really disgusting!
*Everything is outdated.
*They force you to buy a token instead of offering change for lockers, absolutely shameful in this current cost of living crisis tbh.
*They jam pack the place so you don't actually get to swim rather you bob from one place to another.
Visited once and never went back in the week we were visiting as the cons outweighed the pros 🤷♂️
Nice big pool, loads for kids to do, big slide and waves every half hour. Could do with more staff.
If you actually want to swim at a time that suits you its impossible as there are no dedicated spaces between the kids jumping in, and families throwing balls. Some behaviour notices would be great; or maybe 'swimmers have right of way'. I'm not that much of a cummugeon as it's great to see kids enjoying themselves and learning to swim, but as an adult swimmer I felt in the way and unconsidered.
