The Arlington Baths Clubis an historic Victorian bathing complex, owned and run by members for members on a not-for-profit basis. Founded in 1870, this community club is the oldest of its kind in the world.Our ‘A’ listed building is home to a 21 metre sky-lit swimming pool with trapezes and travelling rings, a unique and beautiful Turkish suite, saunas, a steam room, free-standing slipper baths and hot tubs, a gymnasium in an airy Victorian loft, a spacious and elegant old Reading Room and a members’ lounge.Every member of the club has a personal peg for their swimming costume so they can pop in any time for a swim. Costumes are then cleaned and dried, ready for their next visit.We’re a community with rich memories. Many members joined as children to swim with their parents; they’re now bringing their own children to the Baths. From learning to swim, to swinging across the pool on the rings, to relaxing in the warmth under the star-studded dome of the Turkish suite, the Arlington Baths is a special place with a colourful history and strong sense of community and heritage.
