Bristol Gardens Spa

Rating: Fabulous
We are finding Sundays are a great time to visit here. Couples Only after five, so people start turning up then.

Great to relax in the hot spa, the very hot spa, and the cold pool. Choice of saunas, smaller and big. Then upstairs to the "rest" rooms (no rest for the wicked) where you can watch, be watched, or swap as you feel.

As summer is ending, outdoor naturism naturally ends so where better than a naturist spa.

Come and warm up in more ways than one :)

We went to Bristol Gardens a couple of weeks ago for the first time. It has to be said we loved it. We went on a Saturday night so it was Couples Only and we had a great time. Very relaxed, everyone was friendly and just generally enjoyed ourselves. It was nice and clean and the staff were great. Facilities were fabulous as well. It will be the first visit of many we think.

At long last - visited BGHS with a lovely man a couple of weeks ago. The place is spotless and very well attended. We got there around 7.30pm and there were couples, singles etc. Met some lovely people in the bubbles, enjoyed a really good time too. Would highly recommend this place, which is not full of `cliques' and people who obviously know each other. It is primarily a naturist spa, so you do have to wear a towel or robe in the public areas, but this is a small price to pay for such a lovely, clean, friendly place to meet like minded souls. I will be back :)

The best time to go here as a couple is weekend evenings after 5pm when the wankers have all been kicked out and the whole place is Couples Only.

It's a proper naturist place so you strip off immediately, clothes go in the locker, before you go in.

Having said that, you have to wear towels in the first area which is the lounge and cafe section, which we found unusual.

The rest of the place is towels off.

(The staff are all attractive young ladies who remain fully clothed, so there's a CFNM fantasy right there!

And for the ladies, no fully dressed men ogling you)

Downstairs is a proper Roman spa with pools, hot tubs, steam rooms, in a proper Roman setting. Everyone is relaxed and friendly and there are no "cliques".

Upstairs is the play area, private rooms, and a big Venetian room where you can get 3 couples on the bed or 4 at a push. It also has a fantastic viewing area for the voyeurs.

Our fave room is the mirror room (those of you who know Adam will understand) where you can watch yourself from all angles, and watch those who are watching you.

We had great fun with another couple who joined us, and with the couples who watched us.

Again, this would be completely off putting if a group of single men were standing there wanking, but completely erotic when it's other couples getting fired up ready to take their turn and/or join in.

The only "down side" if you go on a Sat night is it still closes at half ten, and play stops at ten. Most clubs only get started at that time. However you are in Brighton, so find out who's going where after, and/or arrange a "back to yours"

Visited BGHS for the first time last with, and on the recommendation of, one of our Fab friends. The feeling you get the moment you walk in the door is that this is a professionally-run 'establishment' (more on that later..). Reception, lockers (which are a good size)/changing and then into the cafe area are all well-maintained although showing a few signs of age maybe. The cafe servery in particular was spotless.

BGHS is housed in a Victorian building and this needs to be borne in mind for anyone with health/movement issues going there - the spa/social/play areas are spread over three floors with steep, tight stairs between them. That apart, the general standard of decor and style is very good, but it IS unique and this is what sets this venue apart. It is what we would call 'establishment/old money' in that it is all presented and arranged on traditional lines - specially the spa facilities. If you are looking for the "fibre-glass 22 person type" Jacuzzi this will NOT be the place for you. The baths in this place are the real thing! - the pool being worthy of note here.

The play rooms are plentiful, given the limitations on area and there are at least two private, lockable rooms, although we would echo a previous review which mentioned the lack of an 'Invitation Room' which would be welcome especially on non-couples days.

The play rooms are what we would call functional rather than opulent, but have plenty of mattresses and pillows (needed for the proximity of the walls!! Lol!) but there is one glaring omission in that there does not appear to be any supply of wipes or sprays to clean up after you've used one. Using our supplied towels was not particularly pleasurable after the second time.

The negatives aside, we would still rate this spa as 'Fabulous' thanks to the atmosphere, lack of thumping music and the fact that it clearly attracts a different 'set' to many other clubs. In short, it is a different club experience which is of a high standard and should not be discounted.

We're looking forward to our return on a couples night. Thank you to the staff who were on last night - great job ladies!!

After our second visit yesterday (11/8)we felt we had a fair comparison and able to write an objective review. We have rated it 'fabulous' because it is, but not without its downsides. If you are the type that likes to dress up and be a strutting peacock wanting attention you will not like this place. There is no loud music or drunken people to far gone to do anything, so if that is your style of swinging then avoid at all costs.

However, if you like a relaxed atmosphere where it is easy to strike up a conversation with friendly people then you will love it.

the best way, we feel to approach this club is with low expectation of play but know that the spa facilities are second to none so a relaxed time to unwind vanilla worlds stresses and strains are assured. Our first time was a Saturday evening when couples only are allowed, and we saw no play and had a friendly chat with a few people but because of the facilities decided we would be regulars anyway.

On the second visit it was all day and night Sunday. The atmosphere could not have been more different. I have read and heard that this place does vary a lot in terms of play opportunities and we found this to be true.

Although it is not the fault of the club, we found single blokes getting close, staring and wanking when trying to sunbathe and relax disrespectful and completely destroying any thoughts of play that they can take part in. We accept that this is our preference and that there are many others that will enjoy the attention, but from now on we will only attend weekend evenings, which is a shame on the decent blokes that are there as they are missing out on a potential good time because of the few.

This place is not at all cliquey, everyone we spoke to and the couple we played with are as fabulous as the club is.

The only real downsides of the club are the stairs if you have health issues, and we would like to see a couples or invitation only room in the 'rest area' while there are lockable rooms for our taste we like the randomness that large play areas can induce.

We would also like to see a small water dispenser in the upstairs areas, as the spa facilities dehydrate you fast, as does the play :), but if you are on the sundeck then it is two flights of stairs to the lounge, which kills the relaxation mood.

We highly recommend this place for the spa facilities alone, but when added to the play opportunities then it is fabulous.

We have been going to BG at the weekend regularly for about 5 years. We always have fun but some days are better than others. It depends on who else is there. It's pot luck. Some evenings we have left just thinking WOW about the horny fun we've just had. Other times we have just entertained ourselves in the mirror room.

Went to BGHS tonight. If you ignore the fact that it has "rest rooms" for discerning couples to be together, it is a fantastic place - various hot tubs and saunas, showers etc. Add in the fact that it has the "rest rooms" and it is unbelievable. I went to Gems in Yeovil last week - that was quite honestly the worst club I've ever been to - BGHS is by far the best! I can't rate this place highly enough.

Cant say enough good things about bghs but agree with the last reviewer the first thing that springs to mind is how am i gonna manage the stairs as the introductory tour is done at such a speed could do with being at a more relaxed pace.

Our first visit to BGHS on couples only nights and we'll def be coming back. Everything is just right, superb spa facilites, jacuzzi's, cool pool, sauna etc and showers, clientele and unobtrusive friendly staff. Lounge, snack bar and chill areas very relaxing, but the Rest (play) Rooms are just fab - with lots of 'activity' in private rooms or open areas. We had lots of fun ! Complaints - None really, the first timers tour could have been at a more relaxed pace. And it would be nice to be able to have a glass of wine and a smoking area, but hey-ho, this is place is marketed essentially as a 'Health Spa' !!

Absolutely marvelous venue; only been once - so far, most certainly will be going again - but it was clean & tidy, with a great atmosphere, and expedient service. The relaxation rooms are particularly good, and the spa area itself is equal to that which one might expect to find at a high-end hotel. I could not recommend it more highly.

Had been plucking up the courage to go to Bghs and thank God we did. The place is great with an amazing chilled out atmosphere. The staff are brilliant and you always feel safe. Wasn't expecting to play with our sexy couple on our first visit but so glad we did and chilled out in the solarium. Went back again for second time at weekend just gone and had another amazing time x

Visited this club for the first time 2 weeks ago with friends. Felt very relaxed and enjoyed our first visit, since then we have returned 3 times.This club has everything you could wish for. All the staff are lovely and a credit to Angie & Sam the owners who are also lovely people. We always leave relaxed and refreshed and wanting to go back. We just wish we had found this club sooner. Anyone wanting to go but feeling undecisive just go for it you will find no club to match BGHS.

after many bghs meets this place gets better and better!

If you arrange meets from fabs and not rely on ad-hoc meets this seems to work well and a bonus then if you do meet other couples there !!

very clean safe and lots of fun.....

Great club, very clean and professional. Lots of floors to play on/in. Lockable rooms, non-door rooms, gangbang rooms, adjoining rooms, tiny rooms, spacious rooms, open plan terrace area with mats on the floor (indoors), open place outdoor sun terrace, Jacuzzis, sauna, steam, plunge pool....just about everything you want in facilities.....all types of people there and all sort of preferences.

I've been there with girlfriends, fuck buddies and as a single male.....always made welcome. Even stopped from doing action in public, in the Jacuzzi, as its a non-public-play area.....which I was impressed by.

Would love to go again....even used to travel 1.5hrs just to go there....ALWAYS found some action.

Go NOW!! ;)

Visited BGHS for the first time in many years on 12 June. On street car parking was available and I felt safe in the neighbourhood. Premises were fantastic. Staff were welcoming, well trained and enthusiastic. Place was spotlessly clean.

Enjoyed the combination of steam rooms, pools and saunas and had a great time watching a young couple fucking in a playroom while she played with some onlookers. There were the usual fat old sad blokes ( and I know I will be one ....but not yet!) all pushing to get some action.

I just sat and watched and was delighted to be asked to join in. Whoever the slim blond was with the small tits and gorgeous body ; you were fantastic and made me feel 18 again. I have never seen one woman make so many guys cum!

After recharging the batteries met a very nice girl in a very hot jacuzzi where the minx was getting off on a powerful jet. Read my veification if you want to hear more.

Drained and exhausted I left. Nice crowd of respectable well behaved both hetro and gay couples and singles. I was impressed thank you.

I've been going to BGHS irregularly for several years, and have had my best times there in a couple. But I met a lovely mature single woman there recently and had two fab encounters with her. I've also had excellent sex with hot men, many of whom identify as straight and have girlfriends.

BGHS is a very lovely place, and doesn't have the tackiness of some of the older saunas. In the basement a couple of nice saunas, steamrooms, hot large and small tubs, an eight-person Jacuzzi, small pool. Ground floor: pleasant coffee/food bar and lounge area, TV room. The second floor has a set of banquettes, natural light and an outside area. Beyond the door on the first floor is the action: a warren of various sized restrooms, a mirrored stage area, and an open rest area. The staff tend to stay out of here, unless they notice a lot of loiterers in the corridors. There's also a massage room. The only criticisms I have of the place is they've not bothered to put in water fountains or even clocks or timers in the basement, which means you have to trudge upstairs to hydrate or find out how long you've been in the sauna.

If you're a couple and looking for other couples, the best time to go is Saturday and Sunday evenings. If you want single men, you'll probably find most of them on Friday evenings, and Saturday and Sunday afternoons. There are couples there at those times too. If you're not sure what you want, go on Saturday and Sunday mid-afternoon and stay on after the single guys are kicked out. Increasingly I've noticed the men there are more likely to be bi, or at least bi-curious, and I've met several gay men there recently who are tired of gay saunas.

If someone is too pushy or otherwise oversteps the boundaries, you must be clear with them. But the sort of inexcusable behaviour that one of the posters here mentioned is thankfully very rare. Most of the men are pleasant ordinary guys, but there are some strange, cold men who have clearly watched too much porn and have no idea how to talk to anyone, let alone women.

Well after toying with the idea of going to BGHS for literally years, I finally did. I went expecting to meet a Fabs friend there, so possibly a slightly different experience to if I had just gone completely solo and "winged it", but I had a great time.

The staff were friendly and helpful and the facilities generally good.

I was pleasantly surprised to see it wasn't completely male-dominated, although the "lurkers" that have been mentioned before were "on duty", which was more frustrating due to the feeling that they were "blocking" a play...sorry..rest room(!) than anything else.

Nonetheless I did have fun, and hope to go again sometime soon.

Having been going to BGHS for a couple of years now we decided to venture there on a BH Monday. The spa was fine but the rest rooms had many men lurking with a predatory kind of behaviour...off putting to say the least. We just locked the door with our meet. After the fun I was coming out and guys were just waiting as if they wanted in, to the point you could not move around or come out of the room. We will still go with timings and days in mind.

Been twice now, had a good time both visits, being a greedy girl the groups of single men wasn't a problem! Lol

The changing room is a bit like they forgot about it so just stuffed it in a corridor... strange

Wipes or paper towels in the rest rooms would be a nice touch too

Will definately go again
