02 / First time visitors
Your first visit, explained.
Most first-time visitors arrive curious rather than certain.
You can use the sauna and hot tub, relax quietly, socialise, explore, or simply get your bearings before deciding what kind of visit you want.
Ring the bell
Reception will let you in, explain the basics discreetly and give you a secure locker.
Change and look around
Towels are the standard. Shorts or underwear are welcome too.
Go at your own pace
There is no expectation to do anything sexual. Consent and respect come first.
Do I have to be gay to visit?
No. Visitors are gay, bi, curious and discreet. Labels are optional; respect is not.
Do I have to do anything sexual?
No. Plenty of visitors come to relax, use the facilities, or find their feet. Everything is optional and consent-based, and "no thanks" is always respected.
Is it normal to visit alone?
Yes. Many visitors arrive alone, especially on a first visit. Reception can explain the basics discreetly.
Who can come?
Men aged 18 and over. Gay, bisexual, bi-curious and questioning men and trans men are all welcome. Cross-dressers are welcome provided they identify as male. Thursdays from 8pm are Biphoria, open to everyone 18+.
Do I need ID?
If you may look under 25, bring valid photo ID: a passport, driving licence or PASS-marked card. Entry is refused if ID is needed and you don't have it.
