Haven Point

Reviewed By Greatescape2020

Swimming pool is clean and covid 19 rules r getting keeped. All staff r great. Even though when lane over taking is not allowed staff try there best to move people out of lanes that r not suited to there speed. A big shout out to the life guards Terry, leon and young blond lass a as when I was the last 4 weeks I have seen he ask swimmers to move lane if there swimming is not the same as the rest he can not make anyone as this is against there human rights but he did request other lifeguards have done this to I just never seen there name badge . Reception were friendly and very helpful when i asked about the diffrents rules even thought the young lass Dawn did not know she did tell in a friendly if i asked one of the life guards they would be more tha happy to help which they where. Overall a massive shout out to this pool for being open and sticking with the covid 19 rules great job all.
