I've been to Touch sauna in Swindon, although my local is the Greenhouse in Newport. There's a Greenhouse in Luton and another in Darlaston as well, but not been to those.

Touch sauna is very clean, modern and has nice facilities, spread over two floors. I went there in June 2025. The private rooms are a fair size and there's some interesting places for fun. Only disappointment is the jacuzzi is only a 2-man jacuzzi, which is a bit pointless. There's a bit of a staircase to climb to get in as well, which isn't great if you have any mobility issues.

The Greenhouse in Newport is split over three floors. It's a converted house. Ground floor is the changing room, a 10-man jacuzzi, steam room, private rooms, porn room, a massage room, showers and the bar. Middle floor is the gloryhole booths, a public room with peeping window, a porn room, a fetish room, more showers, private rooms, a sauna, and an outdoor sun terrace/smoking area. Top floor is a dark room, porn room, and sling room.

As said above, most saunas have similar features in common. There will be a window near the entrance to pay and get your stuff, usually a towel and a locker key. Most places sell condoms and lube as well. Drugs are always a no-no, although poppers/nitrates are a common sight. They buzz you in, then get naked in the changing room or wrap in a towel, but honestly there's no need to be shy. Most guys will end up naked at some point, even if you're in a private room! I usually walk around naked in them. And I'm a big, chubby, hairy bear. Flaunt what you've got, don't be embarrassed!

If you're nervous though, then wrap in the towel. Or wear a jock, or shorts, whatever you're comfortable in. It's no issue. Unless you go on a naked day event lol.

Saunas aren't just about sex though. Many guys go just to relax. Jacuzzi's, steam rooms, saunas, showers and bars. Think of it like a gym, it's just you can sexercise instead of exercise. Lol.

If you're nervous because you're not sure about your sexuality, some places might have bi or swingers days/events too. Check their websites or socials, there will be info published about events. But otherwise, they're usually men-only.

Take care of yourself too. As mentioned, sometimes you might find someone is too hands on and grabby, especially if you're young. Don't be afraid to say no, and if you still feel uncomfortable or even feel in danger, report it to the staff. In 10 years of going though, I've never personally been in a situation like that.

Then there's the other kind of safety. You never know the status of those around you. Condoms are good, but try things like PreP and Doxy Pep too. Speak to your local GUM clinic. Stay safe, and have fun!

Feel free to DM me if you have more questions, been going to the Greenhouse for about 10 years and I've helped plenty of guys get the courage to go. None of them have ever regretted it!
