Centre Parcs swimming pool slots
orangekite · 26/04/2022 18:43
Planning to go to Centre Parcs (Sherwood Forest) this summer. Can someone please tell me what the swimming pool slot times are? You can't see them on the website until after you have booked accommodation.
I'd like to check the exact times to see if it will be practical to fit in slots around young children's naps etc. They're too young for a lot of the activities, so the pool availability is a big factor.

It's 3 hour slots, every 10 mins (09:00, 09:10, 09:20 etc). 4 night stay you can book 4 x 3 hour slots

In Feb, the slots were every 15 mins from 10am if I remember correctly (or maybe it was every 30 mins, but they are very regular).

The slots are three hours long, and as far as I remember they're at least every 30 minutes, maybe even every 15. We've just booked 10:30-13:30 every day for our upcoming holiday as it gives us flexibility all morning.
You'll need to book ahead though, as soon as booking availability opens (59 days before your holiday), the good slots go pretty quickly.

I’m booked into the Irish one and they seem to have slots every 15 mins from morning till 6pm then you can just show up after 6 if you want. Presume it’s similar in UK?
It’s definitely the most widely available activity here.

Ooh, sounds doable then, thank you. Anyone know what time the pool opens in the morning?

Yes, it's 10am as it's only open for activities before this.
