Can you take inflatables to Center Parcs pools?

[Lochlie]

The title says it all really! We're heading to Center Parcs next week but have never been to one here so unsure of the rules. We went to a European one a few years ago and my kids loved using floats to go round the rapids, are they okay to take here?

This is the type I mean. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363852778148

TIA!

I don't think you can go down the rapids with any swim aids in the UK Center parcs. For slides they provide rings to go down them I think

In all the center parcs I've been to, you can only use the floats they supply. Sometimes they iwll supply some for lazy rivers as well as slides, but I don't think you can use your own - not least because they're incredibly busy

I’ve been to Whinfell, Woburn & Elvedon. They won’t even let kids with armbands down the rapids at those. So I’m thinking probably not. They do provide rings for slides but they are only to be used on certain ones. So think it’s a no I’m afraid.

No I'm afraid or at least last time I was there.

Argh I meant lazy river not rapids...but sounds like the answer is the same. Glad I found now before I used precious packing space for them, thanks!

You can take your own inflatables, within reason. I think they'd say something if it was too giant!

You can use them in the main pool I think, although I’ve never seen anyone with the huge types you see in Spain and the like. Mostly little ones for toddlers.

Not allowed on the rapids or the slides.

So maybe not this then? 😉

We've been recently. Small inflatables (arm bands,own jackets, rings) were in use in main pool and lazy river but nothing massive. Rapids you need to swim unaided which is different to Belgium one at least

They have giant inflated rings at the entry/exit to the lazy rivers at Woburn. C|an't remember that being the case at Elvedon though.

@Lochlie you can use them on the lazy river at Elvedon as it's just an extension of the main pool. We've been the last 2 years and lots of kids, including mine did.
