No Adidas adverts, no people wear Adidas swimming costumes at the pool. shallow end needs to be at least 1.5m deep and the deep end 3m like Ponds Forge. 0/10

Hi There,
I’m just wondering if anybody could kindly tell me, weather there is any disabled access to get out of the indoor swimming pool please…

Kind Regards

actually, there is a maximum bathing load for people to use each pool. you probably didn’t get in due to the fact it was full. also, the changing rooms are getting cleaned on a regular basis but its people that mess them up. the only reason the toilet floors are wet when you go in is because people who use the pool are wet and go to use the toilets. bit of a no brainer really.

Love to swim in our outdoor pool at Skegness if i could only get a chance, get very tired of tourist that lose there temper, not many public pools in Lincolnshire so the locals have only a limited choice of places and times.

Would wonder what these tourist would think if we turned up at Nottingham, Leicester or Derby pools and they could not get in their local pool because of people from outsite their council tax area had made it impossible to park (for free) or get in to their own area pool.

We now that you bring in money for the shop keepers and business, but don’t forget that we have to put up with a lot, when we are not shop keepers or business people.
Please don’t get cross, we all have to put up with an overpopulated island.

I have lived in skeg vegas for the last seven years, and I assume when you say peak time you mean mid to late august when skegness is usually packed with holiday makers because June, July and the beginning of August are usually quite good time to access the embassy pools. having said that my family and i had no problems gaining access to the outdoor pool mid to late august last year.

You perhaps haven’t noticed but this is a tourist page about Skegness, not the actual website for the swimming pool. You perhaps should find out a bit more, before posting a comment ending in ‘from angrey person’ – just because everything isn’t on this page.

If you were that desperate to go swimming I would have thought you could have Google’d the pool. You’d have found the website, a phone number, prices and opening times. It took me all of a few clicks to get to the correct website

You really do want it all on a plate don’t you, and then moan at the wrong people. Good grief.

Perhaps if your comment was also grammatically correct it might help matters too.

it a very nice place BUT i would like to no what time the swimming pool is open i we would like to come swimming but we can’t cause we don’t no the times please will you let us no we want to go tomrrow but how can we when we don’t no thank you very much from angrey person

Thanks for this Joe, great comment.

It’s good to hear a first hand experience wether it be good or bad as it gives people a better idea of what to expect and ‘if’ anyone in charge of an attraction ever reads you comment it could make a difference to the way things are run.

I’ve heard of other accounts similar to yours. A holiday maker wrote to the Skegness Standard to complain about their treatment (I think last year) they unfortunately had a similarly bad experience to yours at the Outdoor Pool :(

Lets hope they start listening

We attempted to get in here 2 years ago during a very hot week. We queued in the morning right across the carpark and didnt get in. My friends daughter was very disapointed so we queued again for the afternoon session.There were a lot of people arguing with the staff who had not managed to get in for the morning session due to large crowds.We eventually managed to get in but couldnt find anywhere to sit.No deckchairs or sunbeds left. People were packed in. I went with my friend who is in a wheelchair. There were a lot of children with rubber rings etc messing around so not many adults were in. Stayed about an hour but it was too busy and the changing rooms when we went and wcs were disgusting – I have only ever been in peak season though and I daresay at other times of the year (June or very early July it would probably be different).
