"There are three life-guarded bathing ponds on the Heath; the Men’s, Ladies’ and Mixed which you can find using the map via the link on the website. The Ladies’ and Men’s ponds are open every day of the year for the more adventurous and there are plenty of them. Although we’re not brave enough, we’ve spotted people diving in on freezing winter days." - Chrissie Macdonald & Andrew Rae
