Natural Swimming Ponds

---

”You had me at water features..”. .. was a comment made to us at the Chelsea Flower Show 2021 by a visitor discussing his love of a swim in his own natural swim-pond at home.

His comments are apt, as there is a growing eco friendly lifestyle trend towards installing natural ecosystem water features - including natural swim-ponds - that take their inspiration direct from Mother Nature.  Even Grand Designs Magazine has recently featured the trend.

Our clients come to us with dreams of swimming in their own garden swim-pond, of taking a dip with family & friends on summer days with a BBQ, or of watching the children lark around in the pond with family, friends or pets and enjoying a sundowner pond side with loved ones in the privacy of their home.

Our natural swimming ponds look like the natural water features found in our beautiful UK countryside.  These stunning water features are a worthwhile property investment into any home and are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to traditional, formal swimming pools.  

Swim-ponds come with many benefits to their long term use too, as they are naturally green, biodiverse, sustainable and more economical to run than formal swimming pools with no heating costs (unless specifically required).  Alongside creating bespoke swim-ponds, we offer an in house carpentry & joinery service to install pond decking, seating, a pontoon or a gazebo alongside your Brit Ponds swim-pond.

We are proud to accept a creative aquatic challenge here at Brit Ponds.  We have designed & installed the first Aquascape Inc / Brit Ponds ecosystem swim pond in the UK for discerning clients in Henley on Thames.  We have created natural streams, waterfalls, a wetland filter and a bespoke bog garden for Gunneras alongside our client’s Lake House in the AONB Chiltern Hills, working alongside award winning Garden Designers on the project. And we have restored long unused Victorian built garden  pools to bring them back to family life for swimming.

And because we walk the talk at Brit Ponds and live our own aquatic ‘Aquascape lifestyle’, we have an ecosystem swim pond at Brit Ponds HQ, which our clients can visit by appointment if they want to visit us see a pond of this nature for inspiration for their own aquatic creation.

If this sounds of interest to you, as an alternative to a swimming pool or an infinity pool, then take the green & sustainable option of having a year round beautiful water feature that you can swim in and which will be a gorgeous seasonal water feature to look at all year round.
