Possible new club......
Jump to: Newest in thread
We were wondering if there would be a high interest in a swingers club to be opened in York? And what kind of rooms would you like to see in a new club? And anything that would or wouldn't like to see? |

I'd investigate with the local council first regarding licences first. Some are very funny about sex clubs, especially in areas where they'd know there would be a lot of local opposition. As for facilities, pool, jacuzzi, orgy room. Viewing room. Couples / ladies only. Men only rooms for bi nights. Dark room. Glory holes. Dungeon etc etc. Need to cater for different tastes / events. Greedy girl nights. Bi / TV nights. Fetish / BDSM. Couples only and "normal" nights. Party / theme nights. |

Something with a large bar / social area is always good. That then gives you flexibility to use it for different events or just for socialising.
A wet area to house a large hot tub, shower, steam room and or sauna would also attract our attention.
A mix of orgy and private rooms as well as a bdsm themed room should then suit most folks. The club doesn't have to be massive to be a success, so long as it has a variety of play and social spaces |

"Best advice... speak to other club owners
They can inform you of costs and what you need licencing etc "
This is great advice
I'm pretty sure I've seen threads before where people are asking for info on opening a new club and existing club owners have offered lots of advice regarding what licenses you need, set up costs etc. |

We would be definitely interested in coming along if you went ahead opening a club in York x
Stopping over is definitely a benefit to a lot of people as well .
So if you offer a crash over night ,and charge a small fee it saves people a fortune which helps them afford more visits x |

One thing we’d like from a club is a room with a two way mirror or video feed to another room. I (tony) like the idea of being watch but I don’t want somebody three foot away bashing one out and putting me off my stroke... |

My biggest pet hate with clubs is lighting. Far too many rooms underlit to the point you can’t see faces properly. That’s what dark rooms are for.
Otherwise a nice mix of social - non play areas, open play areas and separate lockable rooms.
Good luck |

Also think carefully about the workload it will put on you personally.
Visiting clubs is great fun of course. Running one means you will spend all your weekends doing all the other stuff - getting rooms clean before AND after, dealing with arguing people, throwing people out when necessary.
It won't all be glamour and fun.
Key to any new business is being following your dream but also being brutally honest with yourselves, about the negatives and positives. |

Consider blending in. I went too see we're the townhouse was few months ago, after three ride's up n down the main road found it looks like a unused pub from the outside same with infusion looks like a old garage type place. And having somewhere that allows swinger's too stop over in same place. Even if set nights, a local hotel wouldn't mind the extra income. Good luck |

That's the plan to look at having somewhere that doesn't stand out aka no big sign lol
And was considering having a word with a local b&b getting decent rates so there's always somewhere to stay |

We were just talking about this a few nights ago... It would be great! Though as York tends to put the needs of the tourist first, maybe a special entry fee combined with the Viking centre!! |

Noticed from your veris you've been to quest. The only thing we can suggest is you take a few road trips and visit other clubs to get an idea on layouts, facilities ect. All clubs are laid out differently bit sure you will get a good idea of plans.
Good luck anyway x |

Changing rooms and as previously mentioned an overnight option. ClubF aoparently have lovely separate rooms that they use.
Cj’s in Glasgow lets you stay over for a reasonable fee as well. It also has great parking.

If that's how you feel.....
Why put people down when they are 1 trying to help the swinging community.
2 make a successful buisness

Good luck with your venture, and we would definitely travel up, stay over, and give it a go...
Some people seem to assume their opinions need to extend to questioning your suitability to run this business?
I’m sure you have considered this well; having a business already!
Cinema room is always a good idea, being a smutty den of activity...
Good luck!

I’m sure you have considered this well; having a business already!Absolutely the Ops are doing their homework and I think all they need to know is would they get the support of people on here.Reading their replies to questions I’ve no doubt they know what they are doing.
From a selfish point of view it’s a lot easier getting to the 2 clubs in Leeds or LC in Sheffield than it is York.Also again I’m selfishly hoping the North East doesn’t over do it in clubs like the North west where the majority are quiet because of competition.That said I’d give it a go

Confused why it matters to the point where you've started to verge on personal? It's not your investment - either time searching and filling in forms or money. If they want to waste their time, in your eyes, what's it to you? Do you have some sort of stake in a club that would lose out on business? |

But why does it matter to you? It's not your effort, futile or otherwise? You seem really bent out of shape about something that has nothing to do with you, once you read the first post you had a choice as to whether to engage with the thread or not. Ergo, you waste your own time. |

Somewhere chilled and relaxed without feeling your every move is scrutinised and watched.
Large area for socialising and quirky play rooms... maybe different themes! (Yes I am a big kid... I make no apologies)
I would def be interested in coming along if one was set up. |

Yes, we would be interested.
We particularly like clubs to have a warm sexy boudoir feel.
A selection of rooms, including lockable, open and ones that allow viewing from outside.
A bar area with music and dance space, plus a quieter social area.
Good toilets and changing areas, with generous sized lockers.
Best of luck. Ignore the negativity.

Actually... my perfect club would be very similar to La Chambre. With better changing and toilet facilities.
LC manages to get a lot into a relatively small building, and a Dungeon in the cellar is just "right".

Any club in York would need ;
Ample car parking
Stop overs at reasonable rates
Air con
Adjustable lighting (Quest is too bright and hot)
The usual rooms, private rooms and dungeon
If you can get the council to agree, I’m sure it would be a threat venue
We would support you x |

Why not fight Tyson Furry or AJ ? it would be an easier win than taking on York council.
Hey you may even beat all three.(someone will)
As for what would I want from a club in York, I'd like one like Chameleons,Cupids,or Quest.
All three are 1st division clubs who have reinvested their profits wisely,
"A well run club is a happy club"
And by the way I Have no connection to any club.
So like any good business take the best ideas from each of your favorite clubs and roll them into one.(i.e your club).
As a businessman you will of course know the best club in the country!!
Yes correct the one that makes the most MONEY.
Don't talk it, get on with it,
make lots of money and give us another 1st division club.
I wish you all the best with your venture. |

Toilets. Two club facilities I haven’t liked in particular.
The old Tease 2 that only had toilets inside play rooms.
Va that has mixed communal toilets.
Much nicer to have separate Male / female in my opinion. |

No neighbours, may be easier for pp.
Fence the parking for privacy...

Whilst I have been to a lot of clubs about 12/13 clubs over the years in the uk
I would say planning is key.
Then funding
I would say at a guess it’s unlikely that you will get permission for inside the city walls. So then your looking at the outside of York.
I would say that you would need maybe a semi-industrial area away from schools. This could allow you to have parking, and keep the fellow residents happy
Personally York is to far for me, and would rather go to either Manchester or Birmingham. I am sure people would go to York but not for me - good luck |

"Yes but it's hypothetical as Council won't permit. I'd advise you pay attention to the other buisness you keep mentioning. Your naivety regarding club in York is pie the sky
How do you know what York council will say ?
Do you work for York council?
Are you a local to the York area?
No....... your negativity and clearly spiteful comments are not wanted and or listened to....
Far from it. The advice as already given to you. You haven't listened. Naively only changed name from Shy couple today . Think you are wasting time yours and others .
I think you are making this a personal attack on this couple. Exactly why only you know. If they want to pursue this venture that is entirely their choice. Best keeping any personal vendetta off the forum as it only makes you look bitter.
Hope this all works out for you OP.
Seems to be a trend - he was having a real pop at Club Entice over their teething problems too. SwingersClubOwner-itis maybe?
Definitely got it in for club owners. Still ffs " Far from it. I'd stumbled into thread as was looking for clubs to visit. Then found a thread. So joined it. As discretion is a major thing I wanted a few boxes ticked. And if n when see something not right like in life I'll say. I'm not one that relishes being duped. I don't go through with blinkers on. Back to York. It's massive tourism turnover will not permit it. Wise up. Don't be duped I hold once a gin |

"Well thanks for getting us blocked "
Hyperthetically speaking, if I was wanting to do something very public like you’re proposing, I’d rise above other people’s negativity and not react with negative / silly comments like this and your status update. Putting yourself forward publically is going to give you a lot of attention, so if you have got meetings with a council, do you really think portraying yourself in this fashion is going to stand you in good stead? |

They said Hull wouldn't get a club either but 'the reem team' stuck at it and managed to open their Hu9 club here in November and it has been quite successful even at that time of year. You should pay it a visit, the car-park is spot on and the club is just the right size plus close enough to town.
Best of luck to you and we hope to be visiting a new club in York soon |

I trust that’s not aimed at me. I made several posts before advising you to remove your - “fuck the haters” status after seeing your post this morning that didn’t make sense. If you’re going to present yourselves to a council especially for an application such as this, you need to keep your cool. |

Have a couples changing room, the last few times we’ve been to a club which is new to us they’ve had separate male and female changing rooms. It can put us off going again as we only take one bag with our change of clothes in, if I want to wear a basque he can’t help me lace it up and then when one of us needs something from the locker the other one has to go get it. |

I guess a lot depends on location. Out in the country like Secrets in Devon or city centre/suburbs. One would be York City Council, the other either North or East Yorkshire. Either way it’s bureaucracy but maybe different agendas. Which option are you going for? |

Wow I'd definitely be open to a new club in York!
I'd love for a swingers club nearby to go one step beyond a bi night and have a men only event. Would save me having to travel to dewsbury for the gay sauna hehe. |

If you fancy a change from Doncaster, Quest in Leeds does monthly men only evenings and during the day Pandora's in Leeds is men only (called Steam. Separate website) |

Good luck with the venture hope you manage to battle through all the red tape, we'd certainly be there if you manage to get it off the ground. York's an awesome place and the addition of a club would make it even better |

I think it’s great, at least you’re trying something & it’s admirable. I also don’t see anything wrong in gauging public opinion at this point either.
My mum always told me ‘if you’ve got nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all’. Shame not everyone was brought up the same way, eh?!
Good luck OP! |

"It's the 21st of January 2018, ill return to this thread in a year today,
Prove me wrong.
Pound says I'm right .
No club in York....."
Clearly you are clueless
Securing premises, permissions and licencing could well take over a year alone before any work can even commence.
We never stated that it would happen overnight
So naive |

"We were wondering if there would be a high interest in a swingers club to be opened in York? And what kind of rooms would you like to see in a new club? And anything that would or wouldn't like to see?"
Yes would love a posh one like libs or va! Xxxxx something with a lot of class |

We have been to 3 clubs. Pandora’s & Quest in Leeds and Townhouse in Liverpool (well Birkenhead). We’re fairly new to the scene but I am a interior/experience designer and have to say there’s way more that goes into it than a ‘good social space and big play rooms.’
The three clubs we have been to are all very different. They all do things their own way and all have idiosyncrasies that make them unique. They all have something better and something worse than the others. For example Pandora’s social area is too big and difficult to maintain any intimacy but upstairs is a maze of great playrooms. Quest is small but really well done and very clean and well furbished. But lacks space and play rooms. Townhouse has an amazing atmosphere and some great play rooms but the wet area is a bit remote and feels a bit disconnected (not their fault - that’s the nature of the building) but their changing area isn’t nearly as good as the other two.. etc etc.
But what makes them is the experience the owners bring. All have amazing staffing, and rules which are enforced for enjoyment. Mandatory etiquette is all the same but again they all have little differences that make them well, them.
Even with my limited visits, I have in my head the perfect swinging club and I would love to design it. Just need a client with big pockets and loose purse strings. |

We are in a similar business to you guys,We have homes in London & Beverly and we considering the same project,From our calculations the return just isn’t there, To do it properly your looking at 500K + In London it’s a different story but even in the more affluent areas of Yorkshire there just aren’t enough people who would be willing to spend the kind of money regularly enough to make it a good investment in our opinion. But good luck
If you do go ahead x |

We would love a place in or around York. Travelling to Leeds and Sheffield is not fun during the winter, with visits always being planned due to the distance.
As none smokers we really don't like internal smoking rooms, which when the door is opens spreads the smell of smoke in the communal areas. |

This is a great idea guys. I would say as long as it's clean,warm and friendly go can't go wrong. I wish you all the very best and hope you manage to pull it off! I would definitely attend a new club in york. |

A club in York sounds perfect. We will be attending and that's for sure. A swing in the dungeon is a must for me as are seperate changing rooms. Fingers crossed for you x |
