OUR POOLSIDE LOCKERS

At Cripps we operate a padlock system, feel free to bring your own or they can be purchased from a member of staff for £5.

NEW! CRIPPS POOLSIDE SAUNA

Our poolside Sauna at Cripps is available exclusively for Trilogy Active LIFE members aged 16+.
Our wood cabin sauna has wooden benches for bathers with a higher bench for those who like it really hot and the lower cooler bench for beginners and respite.
Hot air encourages perspiration by opening the skin's pores, drawing out impurities and deep cleansing the skin. The heat also involves a temporary change in circulation, diverting the blood supply to the skin.
Taking a cold or cool shower reverses this effect contracting the blood vessels in the skin leaving you refreshed and invigorated.
Our sauna box is 3m x 2m and can accomodate up to 8 people.

POOLSIDE SAUNA OPENING TIMES

The sauna is FREE and available for Trilogy Active members aged 16+ only.
