What our customers say…
Introducing Darwin Court Swimming Pool
Darwin Court Pool is a lovely, warm, indoor pool, local to Walworth, Elephant & Castle and Southwark. It is also not too far from Bermondsey.
The swimming pool is an excellent size for adult and children’s swimming lessons being 15 metres in length. This makes it great for teaching early swimming skills, through to more advanced swimming stroke technique.
Compared to busy public pools, a private pool like this really helps student’s concentration, for them to grow in confidence and to feel safe with their teacher and fellow swimmers.
Our swimming teachers
We have a rota of dedicated swimming teachers at our Walworth swimming pool who are all are either Swim England or Swimming Teachers Association Level 2 qualified or above (or hold equivalent certification). They all hold relevant first aid certification and all have up to date DBS certificates – to ensure the safety of your children.
