Cheltenham Lido is offering exclusive use of their Children’s Pool for private bookings. The pool can accommodate up to 30 swimmers (including both adults and children) and a total of 45 people, including spectators. The cost of each booking is £111 for a 55-minute session, and guests are allowed to bring their own food and drinks (excluding glass containers) or purchase refreshments from the on-site cafe.
We do kindly ask that food is set up on the verandas to clear the small pool area as quickly as possible for the next party the enjoy the area.
If you are planning on having more than 30 swimmers, we ask you email admin@cheltenhamlido.co.uk, as we will need to provide an additional lifeguard at an additional cost.
When booking a private hire, guests are required to follow all site and pool rules set by Cheltenham Lido. The lead booker is responsible for informing all attendees of these rules, and they will be contacted by the Lido in case of any issues.
Please note that refunds can only be issued if the Lido is closed due to extreme weather, and cancellations are not eligible for refunds.

Where possible, we encourage that you walk or cycle to the Lido. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Refunds are not permitted on swim entry tickets. You will be able to transfer your swim to an alternative day or time if you have given 24 hours notice.

We are committed to working with parents to create a safe environment for children.
All children under the age of 8 should always be accompanied by a guardian aged 16 years or over, this person may be responsible for up to two children. Guardians must maintain constant supervision particularly in the water and changing rooms. We advise that children under the age of 5 should be supervised on a one-to-one basis.
Parents have a specific responsibility for the safety of their own children, this cannot be abdicated to lifeguards. The role of the lifeguard is to maintain a safe and healthy environment for all swimmers.
We have four queues available;
We allow all those who have booked onto site first and then we will allow entry to others customers who have not booked onto site.
If we have hit site capacity, we will move to a 1-out-1-in scenario.
