When the temperatures go up, going for a swim is a great way to cool down and there are lots of places to enjoy an outdoor swim across the UK this summer. If you are heading off on holiday and you are keen to find somewhere to swim outdoors, here are some ideas around the UK…
Cornwall is a very popular place to go on holiday in the summer and the Jubilee pool in Penzance is a great spot to go to for a swim. It is the largest seawater lido in the UK. With fantastic views looking out to Mounts Bay, it is a great place to enjoy a fun swim by the sea, and there is also a geothermal pool if you want to sit in some warmer water!
If you are heading to the Cotswolds on holiday and staying somewhere like this spa breaks Cheltenham based hotel https://hatherleymanor.com/the-spa/spa-breaks-cotswolds/cheltenham/ then there is the Sandford Park Lido to go and swim in.
