What is Naturism, and how is it practiced at Haslemere Sun Club?A: Naturism, also known as nudism, is a lifestyle that advocates for social nudity and promotes a philosophy of body acceptance, respect for oneself, and respect for the environment. At Haslemere Sun Club, naturism is practiced in a safe, welcoming, and respectful community setting. Members and visitors are encouraged to embrace their natural state in a variety of activities such as sunbathing, swimming, picnicking, and social events. The club provides a serene and secure environment where individuals can experience the benefits of naturism, including a greater sense of freedom, improved self-esteem, and a closer connection to nature. With a strong focus on community and mutual respect, Haslemere Sun Club is an ideal place for those new to naturism as well as seasoned naturists to enjoy the practice in a supportive and beautiful natural setting.

If you are a visitor to the club, then visiting is by prior arrangement and at the weekends only this is so that we can guarantee that someone will be available to meet and greet you. Visiting at weekends ensures that you meet more of the members. Opening times are from 10:30am (this is when the sun is fully on the club lawn). Please complete the form here to arrange a visit. Please note that during the winter time the club is CLOSED. Our season runs from late April through to end of September.
-
Do I have to be naked at the club at all times?No you do not. If the weather is inclement then you would not expect to be naked. The only time you have to be naked is when using the pool, as no bathing costumes are allowed. If it is your first time visiting a naturist club, then this would be taken into account, however you will probably find that you would be more relaxed being naked when everyone else around you is doing the same. If you are a female and it is that time of the month, then again bikini bottoms are acceptable.
-
Do we have to strip off straight away?We understand that if you have never been to a naturist club or are new to naturism the thought of being bare for the first time can be daunting. We have all been there so just enjoy your visit. If you’re comfortable with it please enjoy the sun and go bare, but there is no pressure.
-
Are there any rules of etiquette in naturism which I should know about?Always take a towel to sit on, as a matter courtesy to others and for your own peace of mind.
-
Are any areas private?We do not have private areas as its a members' club so a member can sunbathe where they like within the grounds.
-
Do you charge for the showers?No the showers are free and very often, guests and new members comment on how good the showers are.
-
Are Pets allowed?We are afraid we do not allow pets.
-
What if my body isn't perfect?People come in all shapes and sizes and it is no different at a clothing optional club. One of the best things you'll find at a naturist club is everyone is on the same level. A naturist is accepted for who you are not what you look like.
-
Is joining a naturist club kept confidential?Absolutely. All members of Haslemere Sun Club have complete confidentiality. Your details are not divulged to anyone outside the club. However you're free to tell as many people as you want that you belong to a naturist club.
-
Are you able to Camp/Caravan at our site?Unfortunately we cannot cater for camping/caravaning/electric hookups at our club. The club is located at the top of a steep hill, and there is a car park at the bottom (which is outside of the naturist area) which does not have access to electric hook ups. The only time camping is available at the club is when we are holding a social at the club and there will be club members in attendance at the club, by prior agreement.
-
Do you accept single males/females?We do not discriminate against either sex at Haslemere Sun Club. You are welcome to visit the club, however after 3 visits membership is either offered or declined. We do try to keep an even keel on the number of males and females at the club, so as not to make either sex feel out numbered or uncomfortable. We are a family orientated naturist club, and if you join as a couple you are more likely to be offered membership after 3 visits, whereas there may be a waiting list for single members.

What's the weather like?The current weather forecast is available on our Weather Forecast page.
