So get digging. Not a moment to lose.

Thanks. So can anyone offer any tips on creating a low-cost, but effective
pond? Can it be done by lining a hole with black polythene, for example?

IMO Polythene is too vulnerable to puncture and light degradation.
But you can (we did) make an excellent longlasting pond with a proper
pondliner material. Old carpet makes a good underlay.

Or you could bury some old rubber dustbins or barrels, to make small
ponds; still a lot of fun.
