splash pool !

[guitarman]

We bought a 10' wide by 3' deep pool in Todo shop for 50 euros. folds up in winter and store in shed. Great for cooling down and as a splash pool for kids.
No planning required haha  :) And I have floated in it ( not with G&T though, will try that next summer).

So many different opinions. We were over there end of October viewing properties (plumped for one in Velez Blanco ) We were told Zurgena wont`t allow ANY pools at all. (by an agent in or out of the ground)) Other areas will allow above ground pools only. However a proper concrete and tiled pool even if it is only as little as six inches higher than the surrounding land is termed above ground so IS allowed by some Town Halls. Best bet is an above ground pool. Because it is NOT FIXED permanently no permissions are required. These are also cheaper to install and also easier to maintain. As it appears you really want it for the kids i`d advise this route .

PS we are currently applying for permission for a pool in Velez Blanco. It is in the ground so we need planning permission. Can be a long drawn out affair .

I`d ask in person at Zurgena Ayuntamiento to see EXACTLY what they will allow. Don`t take the word of a builder.

Have you considered a drop in pool - fibreglass moulded shapes you see outside some ferreterias
We had one of those, very successfully, and they come under different laws as our solicitor said they
are not a permanent structure and can be taken away.
And come to think of it friends of ours in Cantoria have a tiled pool and their house is illegal
