Summary of reviews related to the 'Pool' categoryThe Ockenden Manor Hotel & Spa offers a pleasant swimming experience with both indoor and outdoor heated pools, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. Families can enjoy the indoor pool together, while kids have a dedicated swim hour from 4 to 5 pm. Loungers are available by the outdoor pool and drinks are served. Guests can make use of the pool until 2 pm on check-out day. However, the pool can get crowded, especially with excited children, sometimes making it difficult to access the hot tub. Showers are fabulous with a rainfall shower near the main pool. The outdoor swim is a lovely experience, but some guests have found the children's spa hours to be not very appropriate. Nonetheless, the swimming pool and spa location are fantastic for relaxation and many guests say they enjoyed their time here. Show more

Summary of reviews related to the 'Pool' categoryIf you're looking to book a stay at South Lodge and plan on taking a dip in the pool, be sure to check out the different options available. The natural pond is a particular highlight, providing a beautiful and unique setting for a swim. However, be aware that the outdoor spa pool may not offer the luxury experience you're expecting, as some guests report having an unsightly view of building sites. The hotel boasts three great swimming pools, but only offers two time slots a day to use them, which may be frustrating for families with young children. The outdoor infinity heated pool is particularly impressive, but some guests found it to be too cold for comfort. Sunbed availability can be a problem with guests reserving them with towels and books for hours at a time, leaving half of them empty. A lack of poolside service means you'll have to get up to order drinks yourself and some guests have voiced frustration at the disconnect between hotel guests paying top prices and membership guests who use the facilities daily. While the pools themselves are lovely, there may not be enough seating options for comfort outside of the pool area. Families with young children should be aware that pool usage times are limited. Overall, if you're after an outdoor swim, the amazing natural pond and outdoor pool are not to be missed. Show more
