Radlett Parties Swingers Club

We went on sat 26th, had a great night and met loads of lovely people....its completely different to anything we'd been to before although we had been 2 years ago with a couple we knew then.....would definately go back again

Myself and my partner went to Radlett on 23rd Feb for the first time. Our initial impressions were very positive.
The house was very comfortable and the hosts welcoming. The food was excellent and the mood of the guests very friendly. We found the condition of the pool a let down...but hey, you cant expect everything to be tip top.
And then something happened. Only a small thing perhaps to some people.but a very major one as far as we were concerned.
Whilst playing in one of the rooms I cut my hand on the velcro strips on the bedding covers. Not the end of the world, but when I asked the host for a plaster or first aid kit I was met by complete indifferance to my request. The host seemed much more interested to continue dancing and after asking how I had done it in what seemed to me a very reluctant passing of interest, turned her back and continued dancing. I asked again, but met with no positive response.
Now, I dont want to get this out of proportion, but we are talking about a cut on a hand at a sex party.Anywhere holding any sort of regular function should surely have basic first aid available.........but for a sex party.....surely its totally essential for the health and safety of all.
Not it seems in the opinion of the Radlett party organisers.
Back to the drawing board with the Health and Safety priorities Radlett. I doubt if you will be seeing me there again, which is a pity because so much about it was excellent.

This place should be condemed it is a rat infested crap hole. Filthy dirty, stinking toilets and even found excrement in the pool

Been to this club many times over the past two years and never again it is decline people turning up in jeans and t shirts a very large ethnic attendance and on our last visit the place had not been tidied up from the night before ...lawn mower just sitting in the marquee area with a hoover and wires all over the place lights not working ...pool out of action ....The music is still good however and the food excellent ...the so called friends of Radlett seem to run this place for there own ends ...asked for an ashtray and was told can't find them ...then the owner complains about cigarette stubs everywhere....so sorry to say this place is now a dump ...what a shame

I am a single female and went to Radletts on my own for the very first time earlier this year. I absolutely love going there. The owners have looked after me, i've made some smashing new friends too.
Friday nights are singles and couples, and Saturday is couples and single fems. Saturdays can get very busy, and lots of people milling about, some play, some dont, it's up to the individuals. I go (almost) every month and always have a smashing time. Friday evenings are a bit more sedate and has a lovely slower vibe.
I'd recomend this venue to anyone and always bring new friends with me so that they may decide for themselves if they like it..and so far they're of same opinion as myself.

Happy swinging

Just wanted to say - what a dump Radletts was. We have been the once and will not be going back again. Sorry to have to say this but we thought it was only for couples and not single lost soles!!! Far too many single guys perving around all night. Only wanted a bit of privacy for an hour or two with another couple. The food was available - nothing too special. The biggest turn off was over charging entrance (£15 more per couple) just because they got their camcorder nicked, so that they could buy another one!! Not our problem Radletts - put the bloody thing away next time. The Radletts owners / hosts - she was lovely - him - tosser / arrogant. Sorry but if you want to have a good experience - don't go there!!

We visited in Nov 2006

Following on from our previous comment, yes the parties are still going and yes the web site works, but you may need to use a link from google, search for Radlett Parties.

After having read so many mixed reviews about Radlett it took us a long time to get around to going and did so right at the last minute on this occasion. Like many people we had seen the place on the documentary on TV, but we already knew about it from before then, but lack of transport on previous occasions had made it difficult to attend up until now.

Before we go on there are two things that need to be said, firstly anyone who has read our reviews of clubs on here (and we review everyone we go to) will know that we always make them quite long and detailed so you know exactly what your getting, secondly we heard from a number of different people that attend parties at Radlett that their reviews had been sent into this (and other sites) on a number of occasions but that the reviews had not appeared. Well this has never happened to us, and we certainly do not expect this to be the first time. We hope the sites are operated with impartiality, because we certainly review clubs in the same way, with no bias what so ever.

So with that said, onto the club. Radlett parties are off the ‘Held in large private house’ variety. But this is a house with many additional facilities. So lets cover them first. Arriving early, we got lucky with parking and were virtually opposite the front door. We are aware that people have had problems in the past, but the vast parking area behind the house, despite the rain, seemed to present no problems that we could see. Outside is a large covered heated pool (on this occasion the water was simply divine) which has a retractable glass roof for parties held in the warmer summer months (Similar to the kind you see on the modern tour boats the adorn the river Thames) Clean towels are provided but it’s probably best to bring your own as the supply is not limitless. Despite it being winter, and very cold (Outside) on the night we attended, both the pool and the outdoor (covered) Jacuzzi were well used. There was also a sauna round the side of the house but we didn’t get a look at that on this visit. In the main house the downstairs consisted on a main lounge and dance floor area with several sofa’s and a DJ. Initially the music wasn’t to our taste (But that’s purely a personal thing) however it got much better as the night went on and from midnight until 3.30am the dance floor was packed. There was also a kitchen area with several coolers for you to bring and store your own drink. Label it though because it’s not easy to tell whose is whose as everyone brings a great deal with them. Glasses were provided. Also included on the entrance free (£40 per couple) was a buffet of food. It was superb, I only wish I had been more hungry at the time. Salads, King Prawns, pitta bread, Roast pig, potatoes, fruit, cold meats, rolls and other dishes were all sumptuously laid out and was by far the most impressive we had seen at any club or party ever, hands down. I think the motto should be if you want to eat, well then arrive early because by 11.30pm the kitchen was packed. The rest of downstairs consisted of two toilets and a cloakroom. Upstairs basically is one long corridor with several playrooms. One of these is a voyeurs room, the second a couples only room, the third was a small S and M room with a cross, some whips and also a balcony, the fourth was a private room that could be closed. There were also two more toilets and some rooms not in use. From here the ladder ascends to the loft, a large play area (that was constantly in use) with several dark corners and other interesting things to play with.

So how did Radlett shape up as a night out? Well, pretty dam good actually. Upon our arrival we were greeted by this guy with a clipboard who told us where to park and helped us find our mobile phone (another story) After which we wondered around the house and looked it over. Now to be fair I think the same gentleman intended to give us a tour but was overrun on the door by several people turning up at once so we tagged onto someone else’s tour that was being given by the friendly and helpful ‘Joe’. Every party like this need’s someone like Joe on hand to greet newcomers and make them feel at ease and although we weren’t exactly new to the scene, having enough people manning the door from the word go is essential. We should point out that one of our party hosts (Janet) was soon on the door as we were being shown around so it’s not a criticism. I think it is fair to say that the numbers were very high earlier than normal, peeking at around 160 people for the night. One of things were liked about those attending was there were people of all ages (average age was probably around 35) from the very young to the more mature and several in between. All races too, and several new couples as well as those who new each other. It is always nervous going to a new club for the first time, even I was on this occasion. But we found the place very friendly and were soon talking to people like we had known them for years. Joe made a point of speaking to us again later to see how we were getting on, and this was noticed and appreciated. (As did the hosts Richard and Janet but they were manning the door most of the night) We also met several friends we knew from other clubs, which was always nice and made several new ones. Because we felt comfortable we played a lot more than normal too, which is always a good sign.

If we had any criticisms of Radlett at all, it would be these: There must be more of an effort made to ensure the couples only room stays that way, as there were way too many men wandering in and out without their partners. Some blunt signs attached to the walls would be a good deterrent to start with, as well as a female volunteer to police it occasionally. I know that might sound a bit draconian, but there are plenty of other places for people to go, so the couples only room should remain just that. We did attend the party on a couples only night, and although some people do (as always) separate from their partners and go and play on their own – we didn’t really have any hassle from any men apart from the last point mentioned. Secondly, more ashtrays downstairs are needed, especially in the main lounge area, though this is a minor niggle really.

Overall, the party was excellent, the people were nice, people were having a good time and were good-humoured. The hosts both made time to talk to us (though its best to book with Janet in advance) and obviously enjoy what they do, which is crucial really. We made a point of speaking to as many people both newcomers to club and old friends as possible while were there, and the numbers of people who said their reviews of the club had not been posted (many sent them several times) greatly suprised us. We hope to see this one on the site as soon as possible. We certainly have never not had a review posted yet, and expect this time will be no different.

Excellent party. 5 out of 5.

Have been to Radlett most saturdays throughout the past year...great music ...lovely food great new swimming pool canopy..plenty of sexy people...join in or just enjoy the party it's up to you....only negative is too many single males upstairs who are either on there own or have left there partner downstairs to dance whilst they intrude on a couples experience...easy to rectify though with couples and single females only upstairs ...no single males without partner allowed....I hope the hosts take note

Is this place still going?

There are no noew dates on the web site, which apart from the main page does not seem to work.

We first attended Radlett as a MMF in our first ever swinging party in May 2005. We have been to the venue on a number of occasions since. However, we now only attend on Saturday. The Friday night has become a chain of single men following and pestering couples. We don't mind people watching, but joining in without being asked is extremely rude !! We do swap, but now on two occasions, whilst Chris is playing, the single guys appear like rapid dogs, which has caused me to step in the stop the action. They seem to treat women like a piece of meat.

Even on Saturdays single men seem to appear from nowehere, if they were with a female, it wasn't evident.

Guys - NO means NO and being rude or agressive won't get you anywhere.

Having said all that the hosts are first class, and as long as you go in a group there won't be a problem, as many of the usual partygoers seem to play only within their own group. Perhaps the experiences appear have some bearing on that.

We will be attending again, but only when no other options are available.

I went to Radletts on 1st April 2006 for Couple and singles night and I had a great time.

I met some really lovely people and was made to feel very welcome even though I went as a single male.

I had a nice chat with Ken in the "cloakroom" before I was shown around by Chris who is a good friend of the host Janet and was introduced to a couple of people.

i was invited to a few "secret" locations and later on after being bagered by a woman who appeared quite drunk a couple from Cheshire invited me to a room where we had a fantastic time.

Advice -
-introduce a no smoking ban or restrict smoking areas

-do not diturb signs on doors to ensure privacy if it is wanted.

Advice to single guys NO MEANS NO. IF SHE DOESN@T FANCY YOU AND SAYS SO PLEASE HAVE SOME RESPECT SO THE REST OF US DECENT GUYS ARE NOT JUDGED BY YOUR INDISCRETIONS.

All in all I would go back.

Thanks for a great first experience as a single guy.

l went radlett house on my own in october and its the last friday of the month that is meant for single men and they make that very clear the owners were extremely friendly and the people there were really nice to me l will definately be going again l havent had so much fun going out on my own before l made some good friends and would recommend that any women who feel like they wanna go and dont have a partner just turn up you will definately make friends female aswell as male points out of ten l would say 9

Decided on the spur of the moment to make one more visit to the couples party in February, one last chance..Met up with some of our old friends and spoke to Janet. Same problems parking a nightmare and too many singles. It appears that most of these are younger guys who ditch there partners to dance and then go looking for fun.When are guys going to learn that 90% of swingers are not interested in single guys. As ever the food was great and our friends brilliant. A lady was going for it in the loft but some of the guys watching comments left me thinking that they had no respect for anyone. We may swing but we expect respectful and shall I say gentlemanly conduct at least outside the bedroom!

We tired to attend just before Xmas and called the contact numbers to ask some questions. We got a message and called back at the recommend time for enquiries on several ocasions and still got no result, as was suggested we also left contact details, home and mobile numbers so someone could call us back. No one did.

We know it takes alot of time and energy to run this kind of event, but come on guys. Having read the other reports, especially in view of the influx of single men to the parties, I don't think we will attend.

just wanted to say - what a dump radletts was. We have been two times and its getting worse. Sorry to have to say this but we thought it was only for couples!!! should have said single men - the more the merrier. Also where was the food, having told there was food available we went just a little hungry but it was all gone. And we got stuck in the mud trying to get parked around the back which is exactly where we were told to go. Sorry but if you want to have a good experience - dont go there!!

M & L
We attended the party this saturday 28/01/2006 it was L's first time at this sort of thing but she soon got into the swing of it. The people we meet were very friendly and made us both feel very welcome, we meet a few couples and played till the early hours. We both will be back next month. we really liked it that there was hardly any single males and it was mainly couples or single females. L had her first taste of pussy and loved every second i would say it is a must do experiance :-)

We have been regular attenders at Radlett over the last couple of years. We have really have enjoyed the events over this time but now we do not intend to go again.The parties are now a victim of all the publicity and the house is now getting pretty seedy! The parking is a problem and on our last visit Janet was in the road trying to direct traffic and the only places where on the roads grass verge not exactly police friendly! The loft area was pitch black and I would consider it dangerous with only a loft ladder to enter or exit. the bathrooms facilities are very shabby and the attitude and discourtesy some of the guests leaves a lot to be desired. We met a nice couple and using one of the rooms upstairs we virtually had to barricade the door and get pretty forceful to remove single guys who wanted to join in. Drug taking was in evidence (cannabis) We have met some great people in the past but until they sort out some sort of selective membership scheme we will not bother to go again. Sad really as this was a great montly event but has now gone right downhill. We spent this weekend with some others who have been regular attendees and this was the general consensus,sorry guys but you have to get your act together! The swing scene is taking off so much now with good new clubs that the commercialism of this venue is going to kill it off!

went in nov 2005 ,,, had a great time with a coule we met there . The one big big problem was even though it was supposed to be couples only , we were hounded by single guys . This hsad to say has stopped us from returning . A pity , but why bill a party as couples only when it's clearly not?

We went at the beginning of 2005 for their couples party. We are very new to the scene and very nervous. We chatted via email quite a bit before to Janet and Richard who answer all our questions very well and politely.

When we got there we had nothing to worry about. Had a very sexy evening - didn't actually swap - felt very secure to have sex in their dungeon with passing spectators glancing!

We so want to go back but every party date has unfortunately clashed!!! So only criticism is have more than one party a month please!

If you like pork and are over 50 you will fit right in!

My partner and I are both 35 and this put us in a very small minority on Saturday night 22/10/05. This and the impact of a whole roast pig in the dining room, the smell of which permeated throughout the house meant that this was not the sexiest party we have ever attended.

Yes there were plenty of people there but all bar 10 of the 100 or so were well over 40 and most were over 50.There was not much action and when we did meet an attractive couple (thanks Kari and Glen) we had to shoo away persistant single guys.

Me and my partner visited radletts on Friday and as usual we were given a warm welcome by Janet, it was fairly quiet when we arrived but soon livened up and a great night was had. This is the place to go if you want to have a great time with like minded people but with no pressure to get involved if you prefere not to (we went with another couple (first timers) who did enjoy the evening eeven though they decided not to join in with "swapping")

If your at all unsure about if you should try Radletts DONT BE you will have a great time....

We actually ended up staying the night and the next morning after helping to tidy up I got talking to Richard and mentioned our car needed fixing and he was brilliant, phoning garages for us and he even drove us home to pick up our car rather than let us get a taxi! lovely man. Thanks Richard!

We will be visiting very soon so hopefully see you there!!

AN UPDATE!

Susie and I went to Radlett on Saturday our 'second' trip there. We had kinda figured that with all the exposure oon the TV that there would be more people than usual, we weren't wrong.

There were a lot of new faces and some of the regulars at the parties pointed out that they had not seen so many new faces on one night before.

We had envisaged a really good night, much like the night we had last month. How wrong could we be.

Firstly, the people there much to our surprise were some of the most disrespectful people we've met, in any walk of life, not just the 'swinging' lifestyle. As ever on this particular Saturday of the month, it was advertised as a couples only party. Well, if this was a 'couples only' party, then i am most definately the Prime Minister. I don't have a problem with single guys, we've been to clubs where there are single guys and for the most part, they a re generally well behaved and extremely respectful, well at radlett, on Saturday night, they weren't, not one iota.

Susie and I aren't really into the full swap thing, and often, we play alone but with an audience etc.. Saturday, hands were on us almost as soon as we started playing, Again, Susie being the focal point as ever. We don't mind swinging with couples, as long as it's OK and we're asked, spoken to, etc.. What we don't like is when a couple, single guy etc just take it as read that we're going to play and immediately start touching Susie and I.

It got so bad at one point that i lost my temper with one particular 'bloke' and basically told him to 'eff off' we left soon after really disappointed with the whole experience. After having such a great time last month, i doubt we'll be visiting Radlett again.

To top the night off, we got stuck in the grounds after our car got stuck in the quagmire of the 'parking field' We seeked help from the 'Hosts' and were told that help would be sought(they've had this problem before as explained on their website) so we were confident that we'd 'be sorted'.

After an hour of waiting, Susie went back to the house to seek out 'the hosts' only to have the door shut on her very rudely and no help forthcoming, and being verbally accosted by a couple of single guys(obviously thinking she was alone).

If it wasn't for the helpful guy with the 4x4 we'd still probably be there, so whoever you were, if you read this, our appreciation to you is incredibly high.

As for Radlett parties, we recommended them highly last month, this month, a completely different kettle of fish, we'd not go back there again, ever.

Paul and Susie xx

We went to Radlett approx 6 weeks ago, one month after the documentary was filmed there that appeared on Channel 5.

It was only our second party so we where very very nervous. Janet greeted us at the front door and immediately put Susie and I at ease. The atmosphere inside the house was very friendly and welcoming. The food laid on was of an excellent standard, by no means a banquet, but very satisfying. As with most events of this type, after a couple of hours It felt just like a normal house party downstairs, but venture upstairs to the bedrooms and the loft and it was very VERY different. There are a number of rooms, all catering for different moods etc... orgy room, couples room etc...

The loft is where a lot of the 'action' takes place, and i mean action...lol

Susie and I had a really wild time up there together, with an appreciative audience ;)

The Loft dungeon is a nice touch with mood lighting and is an excellent place to 'crash' after the party has finished.

The House is large, with plenty of bathrooms, a swimming pool (we didn't use it) a hot tub, ample on-site parking, the dance area with the pole is also a nice touch. There is disco type music (proper set up, not a midi system) and also a jukebox for when the DJ takes a break.

All in all, we would highly recommend this venue for anyone wanting to dip their toes in the water, or for seasoned swingers, it is also a fantastic and homely venue, with plenty of interesting people.

There is a hotel in the village that we couldn't get booked into, but we stayed in the cheaper of numerous options available to us that was only a 10 minute journey to the venue.
