10 Questions about Naturism and Clubs Answered
The way in which naturism is often presented by the media has given rise to many misconceptions. Here we will try to provide answers to some of the questions that people enquiring about our club often ask us.

Q. Do you always have to be naked at your club?
A. No way! If the weather and other circumstances permit then members and visitors are expected to be stripped (costumes are not allowed in the pool, spa or sauna) otherwise you wear whatever you wish in order to be comfortable. Children are never pressured to strip but usually love the freedom to play and swim naked.

Q. I know naturism is about nudity but do you also have a 'back to nature' philosophy?
A. Being outdoor types most naturists probably have more respect for their environment than the average person but we also enjoy the comforts and conveniences of modern life as much as everybody else.

Q. When is your club open?
A. We never close! Members have access to the club and it's facilities at all times. The only exceptions are the sauna (there's a regular session every Friday evening) or the spa if safety related maintenance work is required.

Q. Are naturist clubs just a front for 'swingers'?
A. No. Almost all clubs pride themselves on being family clubs and we have members today whose parents, children and grandchildren have all been with the club in their time. It's possible you may find swingers engaging in their activities in the dunes area of some beaches associated with naturism but any overt sexual behaviour at a club is a definite no-no.

Q. Should I be worried about my body shape?
A. No. Naturists come in all shapes and sizes, you'll be judged by who you are not how you look.

Q. We've been told that members of clubs are expected to do work for the club. We'll do what we can but we have jobs and kids and are pretty busy. Is this a problem?
A. No. The club is owned and run by the members and we do most of the work ourselves but we make allowances for individual circumstances. We have a work weekend in the spring and another in the autumn and we ask everybody to make an effort to help then but otherwise it's 'do whatever you're able to'.

Q. I see that members have caravans or cabins. How do I get one?
A. The club rents a 'site' to the member and they locate a caravan or cabin on it. When a member gets a site they usually buy the caravan or cabin from the previous site holder. Members who contribute to the life of the club are given preference when a site becomes available and prices for caravans/cabins are set by the club at a level that prevents good members from being priced out of the market.

Q. Do you have accommodation for hire?
A. Sorry no, but we have plenty of space for touring caravans and tents. This space is available not only to our members but also to visitors who often stay for just one night or for a holiday of a week or more.

Q. Asked by men. I'd like to try naturism but I'm afraid I might get aroused, does this happen?
A. Rarely! Believe it or not but few men find the sight of women who are unselfconsciously nude to be sexually stimulating. Naturists are never very far away from a towel (used to sit on for reasons of hygiene) so in extremis you can always hide your embarrassment!

Q. Asked by women. Can I wear bottoms when I'm having my period?
A. Yes, of course.
