What a beautiful and tranquil place for some essentially wild swimming, in an urban environment.
Members only, but members can bring a guest.
It is a very quiet place and sheltered from the wind.
Bring a flask of tea or coffee, and a good book and don't look at the clock!
If you can find a member to bring you as a guest - jump at the chance!
I went as a guest for the first time since I was a child and it was just as magical as I remember but only better. The swimming area has been extended and so has the grassy spaces too. Such a calm and lovely place to go for a swim! We visited during the June heatwave and the water was 20 degrees!
High summer still with water temp about 20 degrees. Lovely. Henleaze Lake is a Charity with membership restricted on safety grounds. Worth waiting to get in
