What’s a lido? It’s an outdoor
public area for swimming and
lying in the sun. You can find ours
at the top of Fox Close off Albion
Street – see the map.

Chippy Lido Auction of Promises - Starring auctioneer
Jeremy Clarkson - BBC's 'Top Gear'
Entry is £7.50 (including free glass of wine) tickets
available from Jaffé & Neale Bookshop and The
Lido.
FREE entry if you have an Auction of Promises ticket!
FREE swimming for the over 60s, every Wednesday 10.30 – 12.30.
These sessions have been sponsored by CETA and a lovely
private donor - both great friends and supporters of The
Lido. Without their generous support these sessions would
not run.
A great place
to visit!
Safe...
Set in safe, secure
and well- maintained
grounds overlooking
the countryside our
25m pool of crystal
clear water has a
water slide at the
deep end.
Relax...
The weather
shouldn't be a
deterrent as the
water is heated to
a minimum of
26° C, so even in
a traditional British
summer you can
take the plunge
and enjoy a swim.
Fun...
You don’t even have to swim! You can
just watch your children or grandchildren swimming
(something you can’t do at many indoor pools.)
Can't swim?
It's never too
late to learn...
Here at The Lido we have a strong track record
in teaching people to swim – hundreds of
children have thrown away their water wings after
learning with us.
What’s less well known is that we also
have had great success in teaching adults to
swim. Whether you’re in your 20s or your
60s, it’s truly never too late to learn.
If you’d be interested in a course for
adult beginners or would like one-to-one tuition
with our teacher Jayne Barringer working alongside
you in the water, please speak to Marie-Ann,
our manager in the first instance. Click here
