PLEASE READ THIS IMPORTANT NOTICE BEFORE YOU BOOK A SWIM
IN DOSTHILL QUARRY’S PURE, HEALTHY AND BEAUTIFUL SPA LAKE

We have 30,000 registered swimmers, so demand for summer swim sessions is high.

Many of our new swimmers delay booking their swim session until they have checked the weather forecast for that day to see if the sun will be shining. But they risk the lake being full for every hour of that day, and not being able to swim.

Plus why be worried about a little rain when you are going to get wet anyway? So don’t let a little less sun, or a bit of rain, outweigh the healthy benefits of our spa lake!

HEALTH BENEFITS OF COLD WATER SWIMMING
Click this link https://www.coldwaterswim.co.uk/health-benefits-of-cold-water-swimming/ ,
and bookmark a fascinating page about the health benefits of swimming during the winter months from November to March, in addition to the health benefits of Dosthill Quarry’s magnesium-packed lake and ultra-pure water.

12 EVIDENCE-BASED HEALTH BENEFITS OF THE MAGNESIUM
IN DOSTHILL QUARRY’S SPA SWIMMING LAKE
Click this link https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/magnesium-benefits ,
and bookmark an important page about the health benefits of regular swimming
in Dosthill Quarry’s magnesium-packed lake without having to take supplements.

Try to submit your booking at least the day before your swim,
and check the session you want is open in the days/times chart above.

If the car park is full when you arrive, drive down to the gates leading to the lake, and offload your passengers. Then drive past the gates down the track to the right, and park tight to the security fence on your left. This enables you, the driver, to exit your vehicle

DOSTHILL QUARRY SWIM PASSES
Swim passes purchased from 17/09/2022 will have a 12 month validity

Ian Forster, Owner Dosthill Quarry

    SWIM BOOKING FORM

    The safety procedure for the lake is based on each swimmer being able to float motionless on the water without sinking. This is achieved by one of two methods.

    #1. The swimmer wears a wetsuit which provides substantial buoyancy as well as keeping them warm
    OR
    #2. The swimmer wears a swim costume, & tows a personal float behind them.
    In the event the swimmer gets cramp in their legs they will be able to float on the surface with the wetsuit's buoyancy, or hold the float to their chest until the safety boat reaches them.
    When you arrive for your first swim, you will be asked to undertake a simple flotation check where one of the staff will oversee you floating on your back without kicking, or sculling with your hands.
    If you don't have a wetsuit or a float you can rent a wetsuit @£8 or a float @£2 in field #11 of the booking form below.
