Welcome to Moreton Pool

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.

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

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. 

We are currently raising funds for a new pool liner. To date, we have painted the pool each season but plans are now in place to repair and reline it to give the pool longevity, and reduce our annual maintenance costs. 

Thanks to the generosity of community members and groups, we have raised over £30k, and are looking to raise another £20k by the end of the season. If all goes well, the new liner will be installed mid-September 2025 and will make a huge difference.

You can donate to our Just Giving page HERE or directly by emailing the pool at moretonhampsteadpool@gmail.com
