UPDATE - April 2025: Special shout out to my child's instructors Evelyn and Natalie 👏🏽 Evelyn has a wonderful way with kids – her warm and encouraging manner really clicks with my child. She strikes a great balance between keeping things fun and making sure the environment feels secure. My child is always excited for lessons and has come a long way in developing her swimming skills. Original review from September 2024: I can’t say enough good things about the swim school - friendly staff, great clean facilities, excellent dedicated instructors, and easy car park. Special shout out to my child's instructor Tilly! My 5-year-old has shown incredible progress in both confidence and comfort in the water, all thanks to Tilly’s amazing teaching style. Her stern yet friendly approach has really worked well – it’s clear that she has a deep understanding of how to motivate young children while maintaining a fun and safe environment. My child looks forward to every lesson and has made good progress in her swimming skills. Highly recommend Carlile Swimming 🙌🏼👏🏼

Very good centre, better than the other pools that my daughter swim before, and the coach Tily does an excellent job teaching my daughter swimming! She is very nice and patient to the children!
