Swim in nature, not chemicals
Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature with a bespoke wild swim pool, a stunning, chemical-free alternative to traditional swimming pools. At Wild Swimscapes, we design and build natural swimming ponds that blend seamlessly with the landscape, enhancing biodiversity while offering a tranquil, year-round swimming experience.
The Wild Swimscapes Ethos
At Wild Swimscapes, everything Charlie builds is shaped by the land around it. Whether it’s a natural swimming pond or a wood-fired sauna, the aim is the same, to create spaces that feel considered, long-lasting and connected to nature.
Using natural materials and thoughtful planting, each project is designed to sit comfortably within its surroundings while supporting wildlife and encouraging a slower, more immersive way of being outdoors.
In this video, a past client shares her experience of working with Charlie on a bespoke sauna build, and the care, attention and ethos that carries through every project.
Why choose a wild swim pool?
Eco-friendly & chemical-free
Your pond stays clear through a gentle biological system supported by native plants. There are no harsh chemicals and very little intervention is needed. Nature takes care of the water for you.
A home for wildlife
Dragonflies and birds and other small creatures quickly recognise the pond as a safe place to live. As the plants establish your garden becomes a small sanctuary for life to return.
Low maintenance & sustainable
Because the design mirrors natural water systems maintenance stays simple. Once established the pond settles into a steady rhythm with the landscape and looks after itself.
Shaped for your landscape
Every project begins with understanding the land. Its levels and soil and water movement guide the design. The shape grows from what already exists and creates a space that feels like it has always belonged there.
A space for wellness & relaxation
Swimming in natural water has a calming effect on the body and mind. Whether you take morning dips, quiet floats or a cool evening swim the pond, it becomes a daily source of clarity and connection.

Designed for your environment
Every pond is designed and built by Charlie, drawing on over a decade of working with landscapes and restoring wild spaces across South Devon.
Using locally sourced and reclaimed materials, each project is shaped to sit naturally within its surroundings, not imposed on them. The aim is simple. To create natural swimming spaces that bring a sense of calm, invite wildlife back in and offer moments of real connection with the outdoors.
Our wild swim pool is stunning! It feels like swimming in a natural lake, and the wildlife it attracts is incredible. Charlie’s craftsmanship and vision are second to none!
