Keswick Leisure
Pool and Fitness Centre
Keswick Leisure Pool and Fitness Centre is now operated and
managed by Carlisle Leisure Ltd and offers a
unique leisure experience in Allerdale. With its warm waters, wave
machine and 'black hole' flume there is fun for all the family.
There is also a fully equipped fitness suite for those wanting a
more strenuous
workout and a pool side cafe
which provides hot & cold food throughout the day. The
pool offers many different activities during term time and the
holiday periods. From Parent & Toddler, Relax & Swim, Aqua
fit, or an exercise class for the over 50's there is plenty to do
in addition to the general public swim sessions. The pool also
offers swimming lessons for both children and adults and private
hire sessions for groups.

Splash & Smile
Splash and Smile is a new session on Saturday
mornings from 10 to 11am in which children with disabilities and
their families are able to swim for free and use a
range of equipment, including floating toys, rafts, flotation
stations and buoyancy jackets.
This session has proved very popular since it
commenced in January after a successful funding bid to the
Cumbria Community Foundation’s ‘Together we Can’ fund and Cumbria
Youth Alliance. This enabled the purchase of the equipment and
funding to enable the session to be offered free of charge until
the end of March.
Now thanks to funding received by Allerdale
Borough Council through the Free Swimming Programme this session
will now be available free of
charge until 31 March
2011.
Keswick Leisure Pool is an accessible facility
with disabled shower, toilet and changing facilities. Large family
changing cubicles are also available. There is a pool access
chair for those requiring assistance when entering the water.
