In the process of purchasing a house at the moment with plans to expand/renovate in a few years. The more extravigant end of these plans is to self build a swimming pool in the garden. Aside from all those who will say I'm nuts to consider such a project in Ireland, let alone build it myself, I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about the planning regulations regarding private swimming pools? I've done a bit of digging online and have not found any solid guidance.

Anyone with experience of such a project or know anything about whether planning is required? For Reference the house is in East Cork
