Welcome

circle icon

Moretonhampstead Community Swimming Pool, on the eastern side of Dartmoor, is open from May through to September and is run by volunteers. Our fabulous 25m x 14m outdoor pool is heated by air source heat pumps and solar power, so you can swim comfortably even when the sun is hiding behind the clouds (quite often).

The pool offers outside showers, a grassed social area with picnic tables & parasols, and a tuck shop serving snacks plus hot & cold drinks. Our timetable offers a daily general swim for all along with lane swimming, aqua fit sessions, swimming lessons, swim club and technique coaching, all supervised by qualified Lifeguards. The pool is also available for hire!

We look forward to welcoming you - find us tucked away at the back of Court Street car park.

Moreton Pool Fundraising

circle icon

Thank you to everyone who has supported the Swimming Pool Lottery over the years. Covid restrictions made it impossible to collect lottery money, so the Trustees decided to replace it with a donation page on Just Giving. 

Any contributions towards the upkeep of Moretonhampstead Community Swimming Pool will be greatly received. Swimming pools are facing an uncertain future with increased running and maintenance costs, ours included. You can donate HERE.
