New Chat Feature

We have teamed up with GaySaunaGuide.net to bring a new CHAT FEATURE for our visitors and potential visitors.  Whether you're planning your first visit or are already a familiar face at Steamer Quay, this is your opportunity to chat with other visitors to find out anything you want about the sauna from other users, organise a meet at the sauna, let people know when you will be in and what you are into or ask the venue any questions.  You can upload photos or stay anonymous.  Why not create your profile and start chatting with LOCAL GUYS now!  Click HERE to sign up.  No cost for a basic account.

Opening Hours

Saturdays - we will now be closing our Saturday male daytime session at 7pm (instead of 8pm).  This is to allow us more time to change over to our night time mixed male/female event.  

 

Sundays - we will now be closing at 8pm (instead of 11pm).  We are finding that very few people come in after 7pm and very often we are empty by 9pm.  Rather have people turn up and be disappointed and with the current increase in utility costs, it makes sense to officially close earlier.  We will review this and if the demand increases, we can always change it back.

 

Toilets

We have started work on the toilet areas near the massage table.  Whilst not very exciting, we feel this is now essential.  We are creating a Gents toilet where the old changing room used to be and a Ladies / T Girl dressing room where the current toilets are.  This will be useful on our T girl events and for our mixed male/female events on a Saturday night (it should help the women keep their feet dry!).  It will be a fairly major project as everything has to go, including the floor!

 

Dungeon

The dungeon is looking pretty grim (in-keeping with a dungeon I guess), but the plaster is beginning to crumble and we have a bit of a mould issue.  We have installed a dehumidifier in there and that is now keeping it dry, but the damage is done.  We will look to install some form of screening to allow play to continue when pool checks are done and try to separate the toilet from the play space.  Any suggestions or requests are welcome :-)

 

Treatment / Massage Room

We have re-configured the laundry room area and have created a new Treatment / Massage room where the current massage ​​​table is.  This will give us somewhere private to offer STI testing and to potentially offer a formal massage service for those that may want to pay for a massage from a professional masseur.  The structure is built but we are currently using it as a store for the toilet building works.  We expect this to be ready for use by the end of July.

 

New Steam Room / Showers / Douching Area

Towards the end of the year, we will be turning the existing steam room into a new shower area.  This will help to keep the wet area more localised, allow us to install more powerful showers in 22mm pipe (rather than the 15mm pipe feeding the current showers) whilst also giving us the ability to create a new much larger steam room where the existing showers and empty corridor is now.  This will also allow us to install some urinals and a new douching area right next to the new showers.  This will be quite an expensive project as we have to do all aspects at the same time if we are to get the steam room back up and running quickly.

 

New Events

First Friday - our Bear event on the first Friday of the month started well but then tailed off, so, following insight gained on our visit to the European Gay Sauna Conference in Amsterdam in March (who knew there was such a thing), we have decided to replace it with a completely mixed event called No Labels.  This is a mixed gender event where gay, bi, straight, men, women, T girls and non-binary can all attend a fully inclusive event.  It has started really well with the first event proving very successful.  ***WARNING TO OUR GAY MALE CUSTOMERS - THERE WILL BE FANNIES AT THIS EVENT!!  CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, THEY DO NOT BITE!!***

 

Second Friday - CumUnion will remain in place on the second Friday of the month.

 

Third Friday - our Completely Billy Bollox event on the third Friday of the month has now been replaced with “Squirt After Work”, a new event in conjunction with Squirt.org where on entry, you will be issued with a wristband to indicate if you are top, bottom, vers or side.  This will be promoted by Squirt.org to their membership and we are expecting it to be well attended and at least as popular as CumUnion.  Official launch will be 19th June as Squirt have been busy launching their new app!

 

Fourth Friday - Locker Room will remain on the 4th Friday of the month.

 

Fifth Friday - months where there are 5 Fridays (May, July, October, January) we will run BearUnion for our Bears and Admirers.  There will be pizza and free shots.

 

Mixed Male / Female Events

Our mixed Saturday nights are now standardised as follows:-

 

First Saturday – No Mercy Manor - kink, fetish and BDSM.

Second Saturday – This will be a takeover event and one of either Devon After Dark / Curious Curves / South West Swing Social

Third Saturday - Coupled Up - for couples and single ladies only.

Fourth Saturday - No Limits (on single men attending).

 

Alcohol

We do not intend to get an alcohol license currently.  If people are sensible (which they have been mainly so far) we are happy for you to bring your own alcohol.  We just ask that you buy your soft drinks and mixers from us. Please note that anyone showing signs of being excessively intoxicated will be denied access or asked to leave. This helps to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety.​​
