Classes and sessions
​Aquafit
Mondays 6.30pm – 7.15pm
Turn up the tunes and get ready for a giggle. Aquafit with Gemima is a great time to get some exercise and have a laugh among friends. If you’ve ever seen Zumba, it’s a bit like that but in the water. But don’t worry, Gemima can expertly make sure all the exercises can be tailored to any ability.
Aqua circuits
Fridays 6.30pm – 7.30pm
Ever thought that going for a swim or circuit class lacked something? We think they’re both great, but if you put them together then they get even better. With a playlist sure to get you keen to workout and Ian’s enthusiasm a great time is guaranteed. As with Aquafit, all the exercises can be tailored to any ability.
Dip & sip
Thursday 9.00am – 10.00am
Just dropped the kids off at school or preschool? This Thursday morning special is the perfect way to keep you on track to end the week on a high. We have partnered up with Buckfastleigh’s Coffee House Co to bring you a swim and a gourmet coffee (or whichever hot drink piques your interest). This one is perfect for a natter, with new friends or old, and saves you a couple of quid at the same time.
Parents & tots
Fridays 9.00am – 10.00am
This one is just for the younger ones. With a warm pool and plenty of toys, this is a nice quiet session for the little ones to splash about and make their first water memories. Under 5s swim free!
Silver swimmers
Tuesday 10.00am – 11.00am
This is the swim for those of us with a little more life experience. This is a session just for you to enjoy the water away from the hustle and bustle. We have steps with handrails and a state-of-the-art pool hoist to make sure everyone can enjoy the water.
SEN
This session is perfect for anyone with additional needs. Our expert lifeguards have lots of experience working with schools and community groups and will have no problem making you feel right at home. We have steps with handrails and a state-of-the-art pool hoist to make sure everyone can enjoy the water. Carers swim free.
​
Over the summer holidays, we will be offering 4 weeks of funded SEN swims.
Lane swim
Monday, Wednesday & Friday 6.30am - 8.00am
Tuesday & Thursday 6.30pm - 8.00pm
Saturday & Sunday 9:00am - 10:30am
Fancy a bit of exercise? Or maybe just a way to wind down or ease into your day? Why not try out a lane swim? We have multiple lanes meaning there’s no pressure to swim like Michael Phelps, there’s a place for everyone
General swim
Saturday - Thursday 3.30pm - 4.30pm
& everyday 5.00pm - 6.00 pm
The classic, the staple of any swimming pool timetable. An open pool with some pool noodles, balls and sinkers. Perfect for kids, families and those just wanting some exercise.
Fun swim
Saturday - Thursday 2.00pm – 3.00pm
This one goes all out. All the floats and balls as well as some music to bring up the vibe. This one is great for kids and families, but maybe not ideal for those trying to swim lengths.
Adult general
Wednesday - Friday 12:00pm - 1:30pm
This is similar to a general swim but just for adults. Perfect for a natter or some time to yourself. We bring a clear pool and the sunshine, the rest is up to you.

Adult lessons
Wednesday 6:30pm - 8:00pm
Feel like you could use a little bit of a touch-up on your strokes? We’ve got you covered. Please reach out to us to see if we can fit you into our adult lessons.

Private hire​
Ever fancied having your own pool but not liked the thought of the electricity bill? That’s alright because we’ve got you covered. We hire the pool out for a wide range of purposes from birthday parties to family days out to baptisms. We also hire the pool to school and scout groups, dance troops and for companies looking to provide training, be that Kayakers or providers putting on STCW Basic Water Safety courses. Take a look at our Private Hires page for more info and to receive a quote with no obligation.
​Night swim
These events have become something of a thing for us. Our night swims are often themed and always a hoot! We’ve had bat and nature walk and talks, as well as our friends at Dartmoor Skies bringing along their telescopes to make the most of swimming under the stars.
