So. We've been away for a few years and we noticed a thread from way back about Kestrels/AbFabs not being in the club's list anymore. Did a search for old threads as to why and to where they have moved (as we assume they have moved as they were in legal arguments with Stanwell council the last we heard), but not much came up, which we assume is because it's happened so long ago that its been purged off the system by now.
So, can someone fill us in? Where have they moved to? Is the new venue any good? Or have they just bulldozed their old venue and rebuilt it?
Also, are there any new clubs that have openend up in the past 5 years? Down South/South West preferebly. |

They did move to a gym in Longford and according to their website they say they should be reopening in June. There’s not much more information than that, I’m afraid.
I have been to the new location before lockdown and it’s a huge building with a wonderful pool, hot tubs and all the usual rooms and facilities you would expect from a club. Definitely worth a visit once it does open.
Hope this helps |

The club is now located opposite the Thistle Hotel at Heathrow, fantastic facilities with pool, large cinema, dancefloor, bar and various playrooms!! I'm just praying they have survived lockdown!! Its a great place!! |

There was some sort of dispute between Abfabs and Fab Swingers which is why they don't appear in the club section.
I visited the new venue once, has a lot of potential but won't ever have the outdoor areas like the old. Atmosphere was similar to the old club and the facilities were very good. They intend to open when permitted. |

I heard that Abfab put together an in-line presence which Fab took exception to so don’t now list them.
The new place is nice but not a patch on the old place - I do so miss the old venue on a sunny day. It had that brilliant combination of bright sun in a naturist setting with lots of dark corners if dark deeds were what you fancied.
But after this year’s craziness I will hurl myself back to the new club and feel nothing but grateful! |

Would agree with you there mate, sunny summers days spent lazing around as the aeroplanes hurled in and out of Heathrow. Hot tubs and pool to dip into, as well as anything else that kindly presented its self haha, don't forget your flip flops! |
