10 of the best outdoor swimming pools, lidos and water parks within an hour of Greater Manchester
Ian Brown once famously said that 'Manchester has everything except a beach'. He could have also added that we don't have any outdoor pools or lidos anymore - but that's not quite as succinct.
The spots below are all under a 90-minute drive from Manchester on a clear run, and might just help you keep cool during the hot days ahead. Swimming here is led by safety instructors on SUP boards and features rest pontoons half way round each course, but it is worth noting that swim caps and tow floats are mandatory. Sessions, which must be booked in advance, can be purchased for Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday for £6 per person, per swim. Meanwhile, the aqua park and aqua chimp is priced at £21 per person, single session wakeboarding for £18 and paddleboarding is £21 for an individual session.
Other facilities include bowling greens, tennis courts, a miniature railway, a children’s play area with some accessible play equipment and a boating lake where you can rent boats for a small fee. There's also a cafe to grab a bite to eat or get a drink and new toilet block was added a few years back.Marbury Pool, Cheshire This open-air pool nestled within the grounds of Marbury Country Park near Northwich has been in existence since the 1930s.
