SWIMMING POOL  ​​SAFETY & INTERNAL RULES 

Our venue features a heated outdoor saltwater swimming pool equipped with a salt-chlorination system, which generates chlorine from salt to disinfect and maintain the pool water.

The pool is available to all wedding guests throughout the wedding weekend, including both overnight guests and guests attending for the day.

The pool has a minimum depth of 1 metre and a maximum depth of 1.9 metres.

​

Pool Opening Hours

The pool is available during the following hours:

• Friday: 16:00–20:00

• Saturday: 09:00–13:00

• Sunday: 09:00–21:00

The pool is closed outside these hours.

When the pool is closed, the safety cover will be fully closed to prevent access.

​

Access to the Pool

The swimming pool is available to all wedding guests during the published opening hours.

Use of the pool is subject to these Internal Rules, the safety instructions displayed at the pool and any instructions given by Venue staff.

No person may use the swimming pool while intoxicated or while under the influence of alcohol, medication or any other substance which may impair their judgement, coordination, ability to swim or ability to respond appropriately in an emergency.

The Venue reserves the right to require a person to cease using the pool where their condition or behaviour presents a safety risk to themselves or others.

​

No Lifeguard or Dedicated Pool Supervision

No lifeguard or dedicated swimming-pool supervision is provided by the Venue.

Guests use the pool under their own responsibility and must take all reasonable precautions for their own safety.

Children must be accompanied and actively supervised by a responsible adult at all times.

Parents and accompanying adults are responsible for the supervision and safety of children in and around the pool.

The presence of Venue staff elsewhere on the property does not constitute supervision of the swimming pool.

​

Children

Children are permitted to use the pool only when accompanied and actively supervised by a responsible adult. Children must never be left alone in or around the pool.

The responsible adult must remain sufficiently close to the child to intervene immediately if necessary.

Parents and accompanying adults remain responsible for assessing whether a child is able to swim safely and for ensuring that the child complies with all pool rules.

​

Pool Safety Cover

The pool is equipped with a safety cover.

When the pool is closed, the safety cover is fully closed in order to prevent access to the pool.

The safety cover must never be opened, moved, tampered with or otherwise interfered with by guests.

The safety cover must never be walked on, stood on or sat on.

Guests must never attempt to access the pool when the safety cover is closed.

​

This may include:

• bad weather or thunderstorms;

• technical or mechanical problems;

• maintenance or repair;

• water-quality or hygiene concerns;

• an accident or safety incident;

• unsafe behaviour;

• circumstances arising during the wedding requiring access to be restricted; or

• any other situation in which continued use of the pool may present a risk to guests.
