You

You have a curious mind around intimacy.

The expectations placed on us by societal norms around intimacy belie the fact we are essentially primates in clothes. Yes we are uniquely human, but compared to our primate cousins, we can be detached from our natural intimate needs.

As our Guest

We only invite one guest at a time, a solo man, woman, or couple. By 'couple' we simply mean 2 people who know each other and arrive and leave together.

Though we are a couple, we ensure we interact with guests as individuals where requested.

In conversation, among other topics, we can offer fresh views around relationships & intimacy that works for us. We can share our insights and experiences around respect, values, connection without commitment, alternative relationships and why the standard narrative is often flawed. We are not here to fix relationships or persuade you of our world-view; we are simply here to help you explore your natural curiosities.

Of course this may not be of interest to you - no problem, you are still very welcome to visit for your own reasons. Knowing our world-view before you arrive at least helps you understand us a little.

Who are our Guests?

Typically folks from aged 30 up to 70. They visit for many different reasons.

Younger Guests

Younger guests have grown up in a more broad-minded time. Often they want to explore this brave new world but don't know where or how to start. We can help. Conversely, younger singles and couples can struggle with communication and therefore intimacy in a complex, competitive world having grown up in the social isolation of the digital age. With endless stimulation online its easy to get desensitised to reality. Sometimes it's a matter of just being inexperienced in intimacy through their journey so far.

We grew up in a pre-internet age which required face-to-face interaction to create connections and, we believe, the skills we had to master still matter. If this is you and want to learn some of these skills, we are happy to help.

Middle-aged Guests

There is a plethora of middle-aged single folks out there; independent, hard-working, successful in business, often divorced and simply in need of meaningful human contact. Not a relationship, just to be listened to, smile, laugh, be recharged and go back into the world standing a little taller. Equally there are happy secure couples looking to explore something new, something exciting together. Refill the 'wellness' tanks, if you like, rekindle some sense of youth. If this is you then, as we are your generation, you may find this the perfect place to visit.

Senior Guests

Seniors, especially men, may be widowers, or long-time divorced. Often they still have much of the mental energy of youth and because of that they are out of step with many of their contemporaries and spending more time alone. Sometimes their bodies have not kept up with their minds but they still crave some form of intimacy to feel alive again. The world is not always so kind to senior men, but we welcome you.

Ultimately we all benefit from intimacy.

You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.
