Am I looking for the impossible? A small garden plunge pool for aqua aerobics Ideally ABOVE 1.3m and under £1,000...

Just that really - I so love my aqua aerobics when on holiday, and know that cold water plunges are good for me... however, our garden isn't that big.

I'm keen to try something for the next year or two and see how it goes... spec I think is this from doing my aqua in the pool here. A minimum of 125-140 deep and 2.20m wide, and not more than 2m deep and 3m wide ie sufficient for me to do my aqua in... for 30 mins in summer, 10 mins in winter when cold water. What are the options? Flat bottom.

Keen to get for a few hundred, but realise it might be more like £1,000. Worth it to me as an investment in my health which has been pretty ropey recently.

I've been searching for the same thing but it's basically impossible for anywhere near that price. The cheapest I've found is around 4k without heating which would be brutal most of the year. If you add in a heat pump, cover and ground work it comes in around 7k.
I'll be really pleased if someone else can suggest something!

😂 I mean, possibly if you have a mini digger and could do it yourself. Even one of those inflatable cold plunge pods is a couple hundred.

Like you @goodnessidontknow I am hopeful.... but Chat GPT suggested I bought a second hand agricultural tank!!

Wow re the £7k ... but if the next two years go well, and I use it a lot, I could be happy to invest this...hoping to be in the house for the next 20 years plus
