This unique outdoor heated swimming pool, which is owned and managed by Hathersage Parish Council, is set in a lawned enclosure with a covered veranda to one side.
It gives users the opportunity to swim in the open air, amidst the glorious Peak District scenery and in beautiful warm water, which is heated to 84°F / 29°C. Regular users take advantage of the uniquely warm water and swim throughout the season from 29 March to 20 September 2008.
Our newly refurbished changing cubicles and hot showers will add to this pleasurable experience. We look forward to welcoming you to Hathersage pool this season.

Please note: On busy days, season ticket holders will be required to clear the pool and surrounding areas at the end of season ticket sessions to enable public sessions to take place.
