Popular Lincolnshire paddling pool to finally reopen after repair work
A popular outdoor paddling pool in Sutton on Sea is set to finally re-open this weekend.
The Maple Leaf Paddling Pool will open at 10am on Saturday 8 August, after essential works to install a new structural pool tank.
Located off the High Street, the pool – which has hundreds of 5-star reviews on Google – was recently renovated.
Some £524,000 was spent on the pool, as part of the £7.5million development of the town’s beachfront area in 2025. It has been dogged by closures this year – with leaks being repaired, and other essential works seeing the facility shut. But now the wait is finally over.
A spokesperson for East Lindsey District Council said: “We know many residents, families and visitors have been disappointed by the closure and subsequent delay to reopening this summer, and we'd like to thank everyone for their patience while these vital works were completed. “We're delighted that the pool will now be available for everyone to enjoy throughout the rest of the season, remaining open daily through to the usual closing time around the end of September.” They added: “Thank you again for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing families making the most of this much-loved, free facility over the weeks ahead.”
