Perfectly Petite 10 OF THE BEST SMALL SWIMMING POOLS
Have you always thought you don’t have enough space for a pool? Think again – here are some inspiring ideas for smaller swimming pools that are both gorgeously inviting and small-garden appropriate
MEDITERRANEAN COOL Outdoor living need not be a complicated business, as this compact back garden of a resolutely pared-back holiday home demonstrates. On a hot summer’s day, a little shade, a table and chairs, and a simple rectangular swimming pool to plunge into regularly are, quite literally, all that one requires for complete contentment. Well… maybe a long, cold drink of some sort wouldn’t go amiss? Tip This outdoor living area is centered on the salt- water swimming pool, which has a classic blue mosaic interior and is made even more of a central feature by its raised surrounding wall – also a pleasant place to perch for a towel-down after swimming, or during a casual sundowner gathering. The shade cloth affords protection from the sun for the seating area, and can be moved around or even removed altogether, as the sun shifts its position in the sky.
