In naturist clubs like Heritage, no one is interested in what you are like, but who you are.

Do remember that it is the face that carries the most information - we all read each others faces as part of making conversation.

In practice ( and in the long experience of Heritage ) the friendly outdoor and sunny atmosphere is not the environment which makes men think they must roll onto their tummies!

But - hey - we'll turn down the pool heating and you can have a quick dip!

What is so nice in a naturist club is that we are all shapes and sizes and ages - it really doesn't matter.

In fact, it is an enormous mark of naturist mutual respect that what we look like is really not the issue.

Yes ..  we do make sure that we all use a towel etc to sit on.

All the facilities etc are communal and the most reasonable way to ensure they keep fresh and clean is to ask naturists to sit on something of their own before they plonk themselves on a chair or sofa.

Scars are part of life - we all have them - at Heritage we have several members who have had serious transplants, heart surgery, breast cancer etc.

In a strange way its easier to feel secure about this when you can notice how many others may have been through something similar.

Its just a fact of life that many of us get the 'fuller figure' as we get older. Most of us never had that Adonis figure anyway - but we liked to pretend we did.

Heritage does provide lots of opportunities to lose a few pounds - and we don't have a licensed bar - so at least it wont get worse!

If you use Tampons, then fine - use them and carry on as before.

Some of us use pads etc. which need little briefs - then fine - use them and carry on as before.

 You can decide whether to swim or not. The pool area is always a fully nude area, so before you swim, nip into the ladies and dispose of the pad.

At Heritage we provide separate men's and women's toilets.

The showers and washroom ( and of course the sauna ) are communal.

When we camp, many of us mums still have to work and we have always found it easy to leave our children in the watchful care of another mum or dad while we're out.

Heritage has well defined fences and boundaries - so it is impossible for a child to 'run off'. If there is an accident then many of us have nursing or first aid qualifications.

That is not true of all clubs and resorts - and on the continent you will find a wider degree of acceptance of this.

Heritage does not worry about shaved / smooth  genital areas.

 [A naturist club is not in any circumstances a sex club, and the very first sign of inappropriate behaviour is taken very seriously.]

Our single women and men don't come to Heritage to find a partner - generally they come to relax and enjoy the sun in a stress free atmosphere.
