Paddling pools in SW London / Surrey??

[Aznerak]

Anyone know of any paddling pools in play areas in SW London / Surrey area? We are nr Richmond and with the hosepipe ban, filling up the paddling pool in the garden isn't ideal. A trip to a public one would be great if I knew where any were!

I think Wimbledon Park and Palewell Park (Sheen) have paddling pools, but I haven't been recently so can't guarantee it.

There is a great outdoor children's pool at Hampton Pool. They are redoing the changing rooms and only have porta cabins at the moment, so although the pools are very well heated it is best to go on a day when you don't mind changing on the grass beach style.

Guildford - Stoke park.

But a little bit further than you want to travel probably.

Or playground at Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park - not quite a paddling pool but they turn mini fountains on and the kids scramble all over them

I was told you could use hosepipe to fill up paddlng pools - not sure though! Richmond pools on the park - isn't there an outdoor paddling pool there? There's one at the playground in Barnes - but it quickly turns a rather fetching shade of toxic green. Palewell park playground is being done up at the moment so no access.

there is one in kew/north sheen borders. its on the north road in tw9. barnes has two, one in washington road and one on vine road. tbh we just fill up the paddling pool a bit less than normal and then re-use the water to either water the plants or the flowers.

wimbledon park has just put water in its paddling pool

How about Vine Road Park in Barnes? It was being done up but may be done now. There is one at pools on the park if you can face the queues!
I think you can have paddling pools in the garden btw, swimming pools are still allowed to be topped up, plus you can use the water to go on the garden afterwards
