Swimming Pool
Our
outdoor heated swimming pool is open from June to September.
There is a lifeguard on duty. Unfortunately, due to insurance restrictions, swimming in allowed only when the lifeguard is present, but that is most of the day during the summer.
Surrounded by a beautiful flower garden, the pool is enclosed by a five foot high wooden fence. The pool measures thirty five feet by eighteen feet, has ladies & gents shower rooms and a sitting area. It sits in a very sheltered, yet sunny and warm spot. A beautiful flagstoned sitting area beside the pool has comfortable chairs and tables.
Other recreational activities available at the Coole include a pool table, table tennis (ping pong), sandbox, toddler's playroom, football/soccer pitch, and a volleyball field.

Ye Olde Swimmin' Hole
Within
three hundred metres of the Coole Country Cottages is the rich salmon
and trout fishing Colligan River. Permits are available at Coole
Country Cottages. A 4 minute walk brings you via a secluded path to
the river. A one mile walk on forest paths through the neighboring
forest leads to Colligan Falls and the rapids and deep river pools
of Salmon Leap.
Popular for splashing around - and for taking wedding photos - is the small sandy beach below the Wooden Bridge. On a warm summer day, a more relaxing spot is not to be found - anywhere!
Clonea Beach
A
ten minute drive brings you to what is universally acclaimed as the
finest beach for 50 miles in either direction. Clonea Beach is wide,
more than a mile long, slopes gently and high tide washes the whole
place crystal clean. It is a popular place, so there are hamburger
stands and kayak rentals and suchlike diversions for the kids. But,
by popular we mean several dozens of families on a hot summer weekend
- not thousands!
