I´ve been looking forward to this one. 50 Meter Basin, open air and situated at the edge of a great…read morePark with a nice big patch of Grass to lie down after swimming to soak in some sun. Awesome. In theory. And don´t get me wrong, it´s all there. A great lawn for sunbathing and a 50 meter pool that is in decent shape despite it´s age. There are also some other basins, diving boards and a volleyball field. And to finish this - the staff were even reasonably friendly. On the negatives side of things there is the Building that houses the changing cabins, the wardrobe check, the showers and a little Bistro. Awful. Truly awful. Smelly, old, unwelcoming, dirty and not up to modern standards at all. So if you want to enjoy the great pool, the nice lawn and all that - you first have to pass through this little house of horrors to get there (and if you want to leave again too, of course). Would I recommend Piscine de la Grenouillere? If you can change into and out of your swim-gear in your car - yes. Practical info: bathing caps aren't mandatory but surfer-short type swimwear is forbidden. No Lockers but a wardrobe check.

Quite a nice small local swimming pool. Modernized quite recently I found it quite a nice place to…read morebe. They have 3 basins, a 25x15 Meters swimmers basin without shallow end and two multipurpose basins for activities and children. Strangely both basins seem to do the same thing, one is just newer than the other and was added recently - my guess is that this reflects as how many of the pools visitors are families with children. They also have a nice area outside that you can use on warmer days. Showers are mixed (though there are two sets of showers), bathing caps are mandatory and surfer-short-type swimwear is forbidden. Lockers work with code. The people working there were all really nice and friendly and it was impeccably clean at Piscine des Blagis despite me being there on a busy weekend. Negatives? I am not a fan of these type of pools where the basin-walls are covered in this sort of concrete layer with a rough surface, I can do without the free pedicure this gives me. The Entrance fee of 5€70 is quite elevated and does not really reflect what is offered.

This pool has seen better days (straight out of the late 1970ies I recon), but I guess it is still…read moresomewhat ok. Clean if you discount the grime. Nice big windows and lots of light due to that. One 25 Meter basin and another shallow pool for children etc. 1 Meter diving board and Saunas included in the entry fee. Speaking of the devil: 5,60€ they charge for the entry - and that does not reflect the value that is offered. Bathing Cap mandatory. Surfer shorts are forbidden.
