Swimming pool 

The swimming pool at the Lancaster is approximately 20' by 40'. It is an indoor heated pool. Normally the temperature is kept at 30 degrees centigrade. The depth at the shallow end is 3', and 7.5' at the deepest point. The pool has a rounded "basin" shape at the deep end to give a diving area.

The hotel is very safety conscious and there is a closed circuit television camera at the shallow end of the pool. There is a line of floats showing where the shallow end stops and the deep area begins. safety notices and devices are displayed around the pool and, should you get into difficulties and need assistance, there are panic buttons which sound an alarm. The buttons are situated , one in the sauna and two by the poolside. There is safety information in the reception to read before you enter the pool and a book to sign to show you have read the information. 

 My wife, Mrs. Ramage, is a teacher trainer in life guarding so the relevant staff are all trained. Although this sounds a bit much, we at the Lancaster feel that safety in the pool is paramount, and strive to make sure your swim will be safe and as much fun as possible.
