Assuming it'll be allowed by then etc etc I am considering booking CP for a few days in August. We have been before and the kids love it, but the last time we went was 2 years ago and I was still with their dad. The kids will be 6 and 3, so still young so am I being silly to consider it? Neither of them can swim so will we even be able to use the swimming pool? Are they strict on the ratios? I would really like to go and it always was an "easy" holiday with the kids, but I don't want it to be hugely stressful.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I'm considering it too ! I've got 3 😣. One little one. Older ones can swim. I'm also slightly 😭 about whether it'll be stressful. Don't know!

You'd probably have to stay with them in the pool but my guess is they'd love it.

I would go for it, 1:2 ratio in the pool is allowed. Arm bands etc all will be fun

Overtherainbow you don't happen to know the age they're allowed off on their own in the pool do you ?

I found this online but it might not be up to date

a ratio for adults to children for the pool (1 adult per child under 4; 1 adult per 2 children aged 4 to 7) .

I’ve been a few times though and haven’t ever seen anyone be turned away or questioned!
