Hi. First world issue, but just wondering if anyone here has an indoor swimming pool and if so, could give me some info on the process of running and maintaining it, and most importantly, the costs of doing the above. We looked at a house today which we really liked in terms of the living accommodation, bedrooms and garden. It is right at the top of our budget and we're not really sure. It has a swimming pool, which we were not looking for and have never ever considered as something we'd like to have. It's in some ways putting us off the house altogether - it is obviously factored into the price of the house, but we might prefer the house if it s was cheaper and with no pool. However, the idea of just being able to jump in for a quick swim before/after work would be amazing I guess. The agent couldn't give us much info about what having it would involve or cost. I would totally rule out an our door swimming pool (safety and fact it can only be used a short period of the year) but the more I think about it, the more I can see the benefits of having an indoor pool. I would love to know what other peoples' experience is and what the costs might be.
(Sorry am a regular but have name changed because I don't want some people I know in RL to know we're thinking of moving).
Thanks.
