Swimming Pool

Unfortunately we can’t afford to construct a natural swimming pool just yet, but we have finally got around to putting up the above ground pool we bought 2nd hand a couple of years ago.  Yesterday we filled it almost to the top, and today we’ll top it up.  Then we can go for a swim on hot summer afternoons!

The pool will also be available for guests and volunteers to use – we’ll be asking for a contribution of 5 euros per week towards the costs of (eco friendly) pool maintenance.
