Small pools, built to the same standard

Plunge pools

Big-pool craftsmanship for smaller gardens

Not every garden has room for an 11-metre pool — and not every swimmer wants one. A plunge pool gives you the cold dip after the sauna, the cooling-off spot in August, and a beautiful centrepiece for a courtyard or terrace, all in a footprint that leaves your garden a garden.

We build our plunge pools with exactly the same construction, filtration and heating standards as our full-size pools, in two proven formats:

6m × 3m Plunge Pool

For courtyards & intimate spaces

Compact enough for a sheltered corner, deep enough for a proper plunge. Heated for year-round use, with a cover that keeps running costs sensible. The favourite for holiday lets, where guests want the photo and the swim without a full pool's maintenance.

8m × 4m Infinity-Edge Plunge Pool

For gardens with a view

An infinity edge makes the water appear to spill into the landscape beyond — on a Cornish coastal or valley site, the effect is extraordinary. Large enough to swim in, striking enough to transform how a property photographs and sells.

Straight answers

Plunge pool pricing

Plunge pools cost less than our full-size builds — smaller dig, smaller structure, smaller plant — but they are real pools, not hot-tub alternatives, and they're priced accordingly. Tell us your site and the format you're drawn to, and we'll give you a written figure after a visit. As with everything we build: the number we quote is the number you pay.

The deep end

Thinking about a pool?

The best first step is a conversation. Tell us about your garden, your house and what you'd like to build, and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right people for it.
