The pool is generally opened in late May. It is, of course, weather dependant, for example in 2007 we had the heated pool working for most of May but, then in the last week we had to switch off the heater because we had three days of the most appalling weather, the temperature dropping by over 12°, and the heater was simply not capable of bringing the pool to the balmy 28° it had been previously.
The pool is above ground but of an attractive wooden design. At Le Clos des Guyons we elected for this design because (a) we thought it very attractive and (b) we had no choice because of the old wine caves below!!!
The pool regulations are basic common sense and are aimed at protecting the pool liners themselves and obviously the health and safety of our guests. For obvious reason we do not allow young, (non toilet trained) children into the pool unless wearing appropriate wetsuits, but have an inflatable paddling pool for very young children. The pool is generally closed around the 10th. October, again subject to weather.
