Before you arrive.
The Boathouse is at Tallington Lakes. Book your chosen experience before visiting and check the date, start time and latest availability in your confirmation.
For your swim
Swimming takes place on Lake 1, outside the bar and restaurant, with 350m and 500m courses. All swimmers must use a tow float. Swimming is for ages 12 and over. We recommend bringing swimwear, a towel and warm, dry layers for afterwards.
Weekend swimming is currently 11am–1pm. Times may change with available daylight, so check before booking. Your booking covers the session; you can finish your swim earlier if you prefer.
For the sauna
Each sauna session lasts 55 minutes, with up to seven places. Please use the start time on your booking and leave time to change afterwards. We recommend bringing suitable swimwear, a towel and something comfortable to wear after your visit.
Facilities & getting here
Changing facilities are available, and the nearby bar and restaurant offer somewhere to get a hot drink after your visit. Please contact the team for directions, the meeting point, access requirements or questions about taking part.
Keep your booking confirmation and management link handy. Find more information on our swimming and sauna pages.
