Guide To Bristol Gardens Health Spa

I was a bit apprehensive about going here because of the naturist environment and the reviews from other about Sam and the potentially sexual nature of this place. However, I found it to be a very normal experience. I think I met the owner Sam and she is actually really nice!!! I was nervous about the naturist thing and she really put me at ease. They’re totally cool about not having to take your towel off all the time and as long as you follow the rules you will be fine. The staff explained everything really well I didn’t go upstairs or anything only stayed in the downstairs pool area, which is fine I think. I don’t know what the hell some people were talking about the pool was quite warm when I went there, warmer than Harspa in town. Plus the other areas were very clean. To be honest the downstairs bit is all I came for and I certainly got the spa experience that I was looking for. The only thing I will say is that I visited on a weekend and it was quite busy with people who often had to be reminded of the rules by the staff, so I might try going during the week next time.

It’s a naked adult venue spread across 3 floors which have differing etiquette. Reading their website carefully will give you an idea of what to expect on each given session as they vary, you should carefully pick the one to suit your desire.

The place accommodates naturists, couples looking to broaden horizons & experienced lifestyle players. It does this very well while keeping the sensibilities in check downstairs & while keeping safe discipline upstairs.

Ground floor is the entrance & bar, it sells soft drinks & snacks at normal bar prices on tab/deposit.

Downstairs is a naked Spa, the cleanliness is immaculate. The fixtures are all in working order but some of the finishing is dated but still way above expectation for the entrance price you’ll pay.

Petting is tolerated, but heavy petting is not. My partner & I were told off for her sitting on me.

The spa will accommodate anyone comfortable with being naked either solo or with their opposite gendered partner on couples sessions.

Upstairs has adult restrooms, half of which are private, ie have a latched door & the others are open rest/bed spaces. People who are looking for shared experiences will be happy. Newbies can take a peek too & make a quick retreat if they are not so keen.

The staff & in particular the owner are complete gems, they are super friendly but can also be formidable when required. They go out of their way to make sure woman in particular are safe & happy.

Most of the negative comments here are from men who as you would expect have not been as lucky as they’d have hoped for on singles sessions.

I have been here a handful of times now and always enjoyed my visit. Saturday evenings are for couples only, and the rest rooms (especially the big one that fits five couples) can get very interesting lol. There are cleaning sprays, tissues and bins, so it is pretty obvious what goes on. But keep it to the rooms for adult fun, as some people are just there to enjoy the spa, and the owners will not tolerate rule breaking if you want to go back. As the rooms are up a lot of stairs, its easy to seperate the spa from the play, so you can be as involved as you like or not at all. So it is good that you will not be harrassed if you just want a spa. I have been in the daytimes too and it is a very different experience. I could be naked and relaxed, find my own space if needed or chat with others with no one batting an eyelid. Completey destressed from busy life after such a calming spa and slept so well. Everyone was friendly and respectful and I am looking forward to my next visit. Thank you.

I have been to this lovely spa multiple times and love it. There is a nice café area for drinks and light meals, a full relaxing spa down the spiral stairs and rooms upstairs to rest. It’s inexpensive for the amount of time and facilities you can use too. Very clean and the water is tested regularly. The big jacuzzi is lovely and the cool pool is good to plunge in after the sauna or steam room for circulation. I know some use this spa for adult reasons, but I find it amazing as a regular spa. A good winter retreat from the cold weather and so relaxing. Remember to take a big towel if like me you’re on the bigger side. Unfortunately you’ll always get a few bad apples in the public who try to buck the rules, but the staff are firm with them so if you think you can film, put hands on women without consent, stay beyond a session time or try to hide and stay as a single male during couples spa time you’ll rightly be told to leave. I appreciate the rules and keeping us safe. The owner is lovely btw!

As always a wonderful experience.

We have been coming here for twenty years. As naturists we highly recommend visiting.

We now live in Northern Ireland and spent 4 days holiday in Brighton this November.

Choose Brighton so we could attend here. So it must be good

Staff and owner very friendly.

Doing all their regular checks and keeping the place clean and tidy.

The only thing that disappointed us was the ” Friday people ” who thought it a great idea to chat very loudly up on the upper deck.

Normally a lovely zen place to relax and chill.

Unfortunately we never got the area without the group spoiling the ambience.

We left earlier than expected mildly disappointed. Not the spa’s or teams fault.

However we will definitely be back, just not a Friday afternoon/ evening
