Nestled within the sanctuary of my own garden, I relish the luxury of complete privacy, stripped back to natureโs simplicity. There is something deeply liberating about feeling the warmth of the sun on bare skin, a gentle breeze whispering through the trees. Then, as if on cue, the rhythmic chuffing of the Festiniog steam railway approaches, the distant hiss and plume of white smoke heralding its arrival. It glides along the bottom of the garden, a moving piece of history framed by the greenery, adding an almost surreal charm to the tranquil scene. The mix of natural freedom and the nostalgic beauty of the steam train brings a sense of wonder that is quietly magical.
This is the second time we have visited and stayed at this place in North Wales ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ, and we love it. Where else would you have a steam train going along the bottom of your garden and be naked at the same time?
Nothing like a beautiful day to be naked and enjoy the Festiniog Railway ๐
Naturism is such a free and rewarding way of life, it feels fantastic to be at one and free without the hinderance of clothing that often gets in the way.
When the weather is this hot, thereโs only one place to be and thatโs naked by the pool at Sunnyacres. This is where I spent Bank Holiday Monday. Where else would you want to be!
Today didnโt start off well, it was raining, and quite persistent. Felt like we were back in dear old Blighty already. It was that fine rain, you know the one that soaks you right through.
Crashing waves at El Cotillo
We decided to go for a drive out to El Cotillo. It rained most of the way but stopped by time we got there. The seas were very angry and I could see why there were warnings to avoid swimming at the moment.
We didnโt go in the sea, but watched from a distance. No opportunity for being naked as the weather wasnโt playing ball.
However got back to the villa later and managed to grab a few rays in between the clouds, letโs hope tomorrow is better as itโs our last full day here โน๏ธ
If youโre thinking of getting away from the cold and wet gloom that is England at this time of year, I can highly recommend Fuerteventura.
Known as the windy isle it is windy, however if you can get out of the wind and the sun is shining, it will feel a lot warmer than the 20 degrees centigrade the thermometer will say it is.
Weโve hired a villa just on the edge of Corralejo, away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre via Airbnb.
Villa Bonita is a modern villa, with plenty of room to chill and relax. There is a TV in every room and youโre able to catch up with the tele at home as well as hundreds of other channels. This villa is great though as itโs secluded and private around by the pool. Iโve been naked the whole time here, so you donโt need to stay in naturist apartments to be a naturist. Check out the link above to view the property.
If I had my way Iโd be naked all the time, but alas our British weather often has something to say about it.
However when you can be naked itโs the most exhilarating feeling in the world, being free of clothes and feeling the sun and wind on your whole body.
Our trip to North Wales ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ has been the perfect opportunity to live the way Iโd like to live. Weโve had privacy, in that we didnโt have any neighbours where we were staying. We had large grounds for the dogs to explore and keep them busy and entertained. We had a hot tub to relax in, and most importantly we had glorious weather that enabled me to be naked most of the time.
Beautiful start to the day in north Wales ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ. Lovely card received from the dogs and a great British breakfast from the wife.
What a glorious start weโve had to 2025. Iโve managed to get naked numerous times in the garden and also up at the club. Vitamin D is certainly good for you and thereโs been plenty of it.
Completing the ice bucket challenge, really quite refreshing.
Full on sun!Relaxing as one shouldSuns out, bums outCheck out the blue sky!!Where did our summer go?
We are now nearing the end of August and this is the first time in about 7 weeks that Iโve been able to strip off and enjoy the sun without feeling cold.
Letโs hope we have an Indian summer and September ends up being a scorcher.
These are probably the only naked pics Iโll post this year, just havenโt been to the right places or had the right weather to be naked!
A look back at 2022 and the opportunities to be naked
What a great year 2022 was for being naked. The weather over the summer was fantastic, but it also started a lot earlier. March was the first opportunity to get out and be naked.
We visited Rose Cottage in North Devon for my 50th birthday with our dear friends Hazel & John , who used to be members of Haslemere Sun Club many years ago.
We also got to visit Acorns Naturist Retreat, again in North Devon at the end of July to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Little did we know then that this would be the last time we would visit them as they have now closed and sold up.

The club also got to celebrate its 75th anniversary this year, which was a fantastic event. In fact it was one of the best attended socials ever with a live band on the Sunday night.
We also got to house sit for Claireโs mum before we went on holiday. With the weather still playing ball I got to try out my drone and walk around the place naked all the time, plus it helped not wearing clothes for those sweaty dirty jobs .

We also go to visit Clover Spa in Birmingham for the second time, this time staying at the venue overnight, enroute to North Yorkshire.

Whilst in Yorkshire the weather was good again for us, with one day being exceptionally warm. The advantages of staying somewhere in the middle of nowhere meant you could be naked without offending anyone .
What a glorious morning, after the dampness of yesterday we have clear blue skies, so an opportunity for getting naked in natureโฆ.
The Naked Yorkshireman
Being out in the middle of nowhere gives you the opportunity to get naked without causing offence or upsetting the neighbours. You also have 360 views from here so can see and hear if anyone is approaching.
Naked on The Yorkshire Moors
In fact itโs days like this that I just wish I could give up work and live free and naked from the stresses of everyday life. #livelifenaked
Almost 12 months to the day, we are back at Clover Spa in Birmingham. However this time we are staying at the hotel.

This time the weather played ball. Despite it forecast to be chilly, it turned out very nice.
We had a relaxing massage in the afternoon, I opted for a full Swedish massage, and Jel went for the bamboo massage. Both were very nice and made us both feel very tired afterwards.
Well 2021 was marginally better than 2020. Covid tried to mess things up again, but thankfully this year was slightly better. The weather was as to be expected, unpredictable and underwhelming.
That didnโt stop us from getting our kit off whenever the sun shone, and this year we got to visit more places than we have done before.
Me and my Jel, happy as can be
First opportunity to get naked outdoors was in May to see the bluebells in the woods. Luckily my mother in law owns a large amount of land and has a wood that is private so is fairly safe to strip off without offending anyone.
Nudefest
Other than trips up the club, or back garden naturism, the next time we properly got to strip off was at Nudefest in early July. The weather wasnโt particularly nice other than one day, apart from that it was particularly wet (especially when it came to dismantling the tent). Youโd think July would be the best time to hold such an event.
Outside our tent at Nudefest with Chris.
Tything Barn
We moved on from Somerset where Nudefest was held to a much sunnier South Wales, in fact it turned out to be the hottest week of the year. We had fantastic weather. It was the first time that we got to visit Tything Barn a rustic naturist campsite not far from Tenby in a place called Kilgetty. Its located by the banks of a tidal river, however you never got to see much of the river as its mainly mud banks and has a lagoon that is fed from the river. I must say it felt very strange swimming in the lagoon, with the soft mud between your toes when you touched the bottom. I tried not to walk in the water as you didn’t know what you were going to tred on. They had some Kayaks for visitors to use, so I made use of this and went for a paddle round the lagoon. The only downside was the blasted horseflies that kept landing on you. They are complete buggers as you often don’t know what is sucking your blood until its too late and then you have a nasty bite on your bits!

Acorns
It wasn’t long before we got to go away again at the end of July to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We decided to visit Acorns Naturist retreat in North Devon. The weather, like last year, was not particularly great, and in fact couldn’t have been worse. We chose to camp when Storm Evert hit the UK. It was a good thing we took the inflatable tent with us, as I’m sure any other tent with poles would not have survived the night. The windbreaks certainly didn’t.
Despite the lousy weather this was our 2nd trip to this site and one that we will visit time and time again, we are just hoping that the weather improves in the future, 3rd time lucky in 2022?
Clover Spa
The next trip away was not to be until September on our way to Ilkley in Yorkshire. Clover Spa in Birmingham was about half way there, so Claire thought it would be a good opportunity to extend our break and visit this spa that I have always wanted to try out. As it was September, we weren’t expecting the weather to be overly warm, but it would have been nice if the sun came out. Unfortunately for us most of the day it remained overcast, but it didn’t rain, which was a plus.
So that just about sums up our naturist year. Next year is looking quite busy with lots of concerts to attend, which will mean less opportunity to get naked around the country, but who knows……
We wish you a very Happy Nude Year for 2022, and hope that we can all enjoy the sun as nature intended……NAKED!
What a great way to start our holiday enroute to Yorkshire.
Claire wanted to extend our break away and at the same time breaking up the journey and suggested we visit the Naturist Spa in Birmingham.
Itโs been a place Iโve always wanted to visit, and was great that Claire suggested it.
We booked the Ultimate Spa package which gave you full use of the facilities from 10am to 10pm, and 90 minutes of treatments.
The venue has a steam room, sauna, plunge pool, hot beds and an outside hot tub. The hot tub is very big and you can probably fit in 10 people!

The day we went it was ladies and couples weekend only, which was great, no single males allowed. Outside the garden has plenty of sun loungers, itโs a pity it wasnโt overly sunny when we visited. The gardens are not overlooked and are very well kept and picturesque.
For my 90 minute treatment I opted for a full body scrub followed by a Swedish massage. I must say I did feel very relaxed and felt myself wanting to drift off.
Itโs a pity the hotel accommodation was full as we could have come and gone from our room all day. We did however find a Travelodge up the road.
We will definitely be coming back here again, maybe the next time we travel en route to destinations in the north.
May time is the best time to get out and about and view the woods in all its glory. The Forest floor comes alive in a sea of blue as the bluebells breakthrough and add a bit of colour to what would normally be a sea of broken twigs, branches and leaves.
Weโre lucky that we have a private wood nearby where I can strip off and be at one with nature, without the threat of somebody coming along and taking offence.
It really is a sight to behold. Why donโt you do it too? Be at one with nature and embrace the beauty that is all around.
