The Most Stylish Pool, at the Stunning Kin House, in the Heart of the Countryside

Tucked away in the rolling countryside of Wiltshire, the beautiful Kin House has become known as one of the UK’s most stylish private-hire country houses. With its restored Georgian charm, vibrant interiors and relaxed party-house atmosphere, it’s a place designed for gathering, celebrating and switching off from the everyday. And now, it has a show-stopping feature that perfectly captures its spirit: an extraordinary outdoor pool!! Whether you’re heading to Kin House for an event or you are hosting a wedding here, this is now the perfect way to extend your time here and truly relax and wind down with the most incredible surroundings! (Even if it rains, which it did the day I happened to be there, it was still perfect as the pool is heated like a warm bath!)

A Pool Designed for Style and Celebration

After you’ve walked through the gardens on the incredibly gorgeous Kin House, you can make your way through the landscaped pathways, surrounded by the flowers of the walled garden. As you continue your journey past the Garden house, you will eventually come across the arched gateway leading to a secret paradise. Kin House’s striking heated 21-metre outdoor pool is more than just somewhere to swim, but it’s the centrepiece of unforgettable summer moments and the backdrop of a day to remember. Designed in collaboration with acclaimed interiors studio Barlow & Barlow, the space blends old-school glamour with laid-back luxury, creating an atmosphere that feels both indulgent and playful.

The inspiration? A heady mix of iconic poolside destinations—from the Hollywood cool of Chateau Marmont to the carefree vibes of Ibiza—all reimagined with a quintessentially English countryside twist.

Details That Make It Extraordinary

What makes this pool truly special is the level of thoughtful design. Every element has been carefully considered to create a space that feels effortlessly chic.

Guests arriving poolside will find:

• Custom sun loungers dressed in vibrant fabrics, perfect for lazy afternoons in the sun, laden with embossed Kin House towels.

• A chic poolside bar, ready to serve cocktails or mocktails as the soundtrack of the day drifts through the gardens!

• Two open-air showers, framed by fragrant wild jasmine climbing overhead. Not just a shower, but a piece of art on either side of the pathway to the incredible pool house.

• A charming shell-encrusted pool house, inspired by Kin House’s historic shell grotto. This pool house makes you stop in your tracks! The attention to detail, the colour, the shells (which also line the pathway leading to the pool house), everything about it just makes you feel calm and relaxed, whilst being surrounded by gorgeous aesthetics!

Inside the pool house, the design continues to delight. The changing rooms feature Murano mirrors, jade-green tiled benches and bespoke marble sinks, adding a playful yet luxurious touch to the experience.

Countryside Views and Golden-Hour Magic

One of the most enchanting aspects of the pool is its setting. From the terrace, guests can look out across wildflower meadows and rolling countryside, creating a serene backdrop that feels worlds away from city life.

During the day, it’s the perfect place for relaxed dips, sun-soaked lunches and quiet moments by the water. As evening arrives, the atmosphere shifts: cocktails flow, music drifts across the garden, and golden sunlight settles over the hills. It’s easy to see why the space has quickly become a favourite for weddings, celebrations, retreats and unforgettable pool parties.

The Garden House

Just a couple of minute ’ walk away from the poolside, and tucked within the beautiful walled garden at Kin House, the charming Garden House adds yet another layer of magic to this already remarkable setting. Surrounded by lush planting, winding garden paths and the soft scent of seasonal flowers, this elegant little retreat feels like a hidden sanctuary within the estate. Bathed in natural light and framed by greenery, the Garden House offers an intimate space that is perfect for both wedding ceremonies, relaxed pre-wedding preparations, or recovery brunches. For a Cotswolds wedding photographer, the Garden House and its surrounding walled garden provide an idyllic backdrop for natural, romantic portraits.

The Ultimate Countryside Escape

At its heart, Kin House is all about bringing people together. The Grade II-listed manor sits among gardens and woodland and can host everything from intimate dinners to large celebrations, with beautifully designed bedrooms and warm, welcoming spaces throughout.

The pool simply elevates the experience—transforming a countryside stay into something truly special. Whether it’s an early-morning swim, an afternoon lounging with friends, or a lively sunset gathering by the bar, it captures the spirit of Kin House perfectly: stylish, joyful and made for memorable moments.
