What could be better? A whole, unsplit pool with the water temperature kept at 26º or 27º, so that people can actually swim rather than bathe!

Normally split in half with a raised floor, this is a clean and hygienic swimmers’ pool. It has a mixed changing village, individual showers, family changing cubicles, even hair dryers and full-length mirrors - what could be better? It can’t be faulted on cleanliness and as a facility for fitness swimmers, but there isn’t much for kids to do - no toys, or floating mats, and certainly no water slides; this makes it a bit sterile and a fun-less experience for a family outing, unfortunately.
