Relax, indulge and unwind at Thames Lido 💙 We

Relax, indulge and unwind at Thames Lido 💙We are the result of a three-year sympathetic restoration project of a beautiful, historical landmark in Reading: The Edwardian Kings Meadow swimming baths, which first opened in 1902. Tucked away behind a leafy path right by the River Thames, our urban retreat is open to the public all year round. Thames Lido started life as a ladies’ swimming baths. With no windows looking onto the pool itself, it was built to allow Edwardian women to bathe in privacy and was originally fed with river water from the nearby Thames. Things have thankfully changed since then. You can now find our crystal-clear waters surrounded by a quirky and colourful design, honouring the building’s original architectural features. You will also find a hot tub and saunas, as well as massage rooms and an award-winning restaurant which is featured in the Michelin Guide. All bookings can be made online so if you’d like to book a table, guest swim or package tap the link in our bio. #thameslido
