Any couples going to bristol gardens tonite - we'll be there from would love to meet , socialise and maybe play a little x
Love Bristol Gardens - you been before? Be very careful to limit your playing to the rooms upstairs - we have seen many a couple get chucked out for not following the rules! Thats what makes it such a good, classy place - you can go and just chill and not have the whole swinging thing in your face (although it obviously depends on what it is you are after! Lol)
Hope there are youngish couples there too - in our experience saturday is has a 'younger' crowd than sunday night, but even then its not always brilliant pickings ;-) Its really depends.....
Have fun!
Thanks Lysis. Tonight was our third time - by far the classiest spa we've been too. We love it too. Just a high quality environment through and through. Unassuming, professional management and respected by all the clientele... And we had our fun too. Mix of ages tonight, but not too busy. Catch you down there some time. M & K xx
Hey Lilnfil
Just thought we'd reply! Lol..
Bristol Gardens is primarily and advertised as a naturist spa only - it is on 4 floors, 3 of which are chilling ones where nothing sexual goes on at all. When you get there you strip and get given a towel to walk around in.
Downstairs is a spa with jacuzzi, sauna, steam rooms, hot tubs, showers and a swimming pool, all in the style of a Roman spa. Play is not allowed down there and people have been thrown out for getting playful in that area....
The second floor has big squishy sofas, the changing rooms, a TV room, a place you can smoke, and places where you can go for (non-dodgy lol) massages. Again, no play here.
On the 3rd floor there are some Rest Rooms which is where the play goes on - some are big enough for 2/3/4 couples, there is a big orgy-style room, one with mirrors and a few smaller lockable rooms.
The 4th floor has an outside balcony and some rest bits where people can massage each other and so on, but there is no play that goes on there too.
All the place, other than the rest rooms has fully clothed staff wandering around checking things are okay - they are all lovely and friendly and it is a fantastic place.
The reason (I imagine) its not on the clubs and parties page is because it is a naturist spa and I don't think that the owners would want it known as a primarily swinging place, even though it *does* occur its not the main thrust (pardon the pun lol) of the place.
Anyway, as others have said, its lovely and classy and it does have a website if you google it, but the website does in no way intone that any kind of swinging goes on.
As far as the type of people who go there, we are often the youngest couple around, but there is a big mix of people, which is cool. Sat and sun nights after are couples only and its £25 per couple
Hope thats enough info!

Hi,
Interested in the write up on Bristol Gardens. I haven't been there yet but am thinking about it. I have been to club liberty a few times. I like the fact that it is totally relaxed, and you can basically play anywhere. The grounds are also nice for a bit of outdoor fun in the summer. I do not like the fact that it is quite shabby, quite quiet and although I have never been in the winter I would think fairly cold. There also tend to be herds of single guys who just sit out-side the playrooms hoping to be invited in. It can be a bit off-putting.
I would be interested in other peoples veiws of clubs in London, and around Sussex and the south coast.
muffin - Bristol Gardens is totally different from what you have described - the playing is *very* limited, as I have said, and its discrete which we really like. I think it is a good place for newbies and people who aren't into the full-on scene.
Its kept beautifully, clean and hygenic and never too busy or too quiet (although clientele varies day by day, so you never know what to expect, which in someways is a good thing, others not lol)
I agree that reviews of south coast places are a good idea though!
I second everything lysis says - a high quality environment engenders complete respect from its clientele and that's what makes this place stand out.
Have to agree, Bristol Gardens is a great place to either chill out or have some fun. Always enjoy our visits there

If we had to criticise it, which is very difficult, it would be aimed at the couple of blokes who seem to go there, leave their partners downstairs and wander around upstairs, dick in hand.
can be a bit annoying at times when you are looking around and are followed around. That said we had to see the funny side of it. A few weeks back we were sat in the lounge area and there were 3 women sat on their own, looking very peeved. Soon enogh their partners wandered back down and they were not happy about it!!!
That said it's a pedantic critique. Great place!
