Choose a cottage with the right swimming pool

A swimming pool can mean very different things from one property to another. Some cottages have a private pool for your group alone, while others share facilities with neighbouring holiday homes or a wider estate. An indoor pool can make a stay appealing throughout the year, whereas an outdoor pool may have seasonal opening dates.

If you are looking for…Check before booking
A private poolWhether it is exclusively for your party throughout your stay
An indoor poolHeating, opening times and whether use needs to be booked
An outdoor poolSeasonal dates, heating and weather-dependent arrangements
A family stayPool rules, child-safety information and supervision requirements

What to check before booking

The individual property listing is the best place to confirm exactly what is included. Look for the pool location, whether access is private or shared, heating, seasonal opening dates and any rules for children or group use.

Pool facilities can occasionally close for maintenance, poor weather or safety reasons, particularly where they are shared or outdoors. If swimming is important to your holiday, confirm the details with the owner or provider before making travel plans.

Pool cottages for families, groups and special stays

A pool can make a family holiday easier, give a larger group an extra shared space, or add a little luxury to a short break. Use the Bedrooms filter if you are searching for a two-, three- or four-bedroom cottage, then check the pool details alongside the rest of the facilities.
