"We only said this afternoon it looks like being a cracking Kestrels weekend.... A Russell bbq Sunday... open til midnight then back for more Monday. So sad.... hurry up Kestrels 2 we are waiting for you xxx" I was just saying what a shame they cant join forces with the Naturist only group in Crowthorne. 4 Acres separated up and swingers only areas another pool and stables etc Im sure it could be workable. 
Not sure The Naturists would like it much though. | |||

And very very sad. It was our first club too! " Yes totally agree with all that. Not including one visit to Le Boudoir, it was my second club. I was told about it after chatting to a lovely couple at the first club I went to. Much preferred it at Kestrels too. Really sad it's gone and only wish I'd started going years eatlier. I'd only been going since Aug 2016. Still 18 months is better than nothing. | |||

"There are good alternatives. Kestrel was always overly expensive, 40 quid for single men!! I live right near kestrel n Eureka ( 20 plus fuel) was always a cheaper option. We have Zeus spa, Hellfire n studlands beach just a 2 hour drive. There's enough options, people in West London home counties need to stop feeling sorry for themselves Loads of house parties n socials have now bursted into the scene which wouldn't of happened before" Fair to say that someone hasn't completely understood the theme of this post and I for one am pleased you spent more time at Eurekas.

"Putting the rights & wrongs of this to one side there is a lesson to be learnt here. That being that councils who object to clubs and want to shut them down will always get there way and I wouldn't be at all surprised if there is more to come before this mess comes to an end." Without wanting to get slated here (and before you do, trust me I'm just as disappointed/upset/annoyed as you all are over the closure and missing the place a lot); I'd say the lesson to be learned here is to not knowingly break the law, especially continue to break the law when official notification has been served that this is the case. Maybe the owners got what seemed like decent legal advice that they stood a good chance of winning, I don't know. However, whatever we think of the council, the owners are at least partially responsible for this happening. You don't build structures without checking you're legally entitled or have permission to do so. [runs and hides ] | |||

But as the above poster quite rightly states, the owners of Kestrels flouted the planing laws in more than one occasion and are now paying the heavy price for breaking the law. (We miss the club too, especially in the summer), but if you knowingly break the law you have to accept the consequences. | |||

"The final court order giving them a year to shut down which was fairly generous. They have only been fined for ignoring that one which they were silly to do.

"The Daily Heil love to embellish the truth. Never ones to allow truth get in the way of a good story. Stanwell Moor a desirable residential area? Really? Directly under the flightpath and next to a busy junction of M25? We still occassionally use Polash , the Indian takeawayin the village, the owner there was telling us thevillage shop and they had really suffered since the club closed. The property was not in the middle of any residential area, it was on the outskirts and never affected anyone. I seem to recall there were no local complaints at the planning enquiry, it was soley a planning permission issue. But who knows. As for living off the proceeds of crime..... typical clickbait of The Daily Heil. They are bang out of order to have brought Anne and Davids children into the story though, simply unnecessary and unfair. I just wish Graham and Anne the very best of luck xx" I believe the site was a commercial vehicle repair/breaker establishment before becoming Kestrels. Perhaps the council should insist on the site returning to such use! | |||

This seems to be the councils attempt to claw back some of the money so they can say ' yes - it cost us xxx thousand but we got back £45K and we're going for more ' | |||

"Maybe all the people who used to go there should send into the council their thoughts and start a petition?? "What would the petition be for though? The owners hadn't got a leg to stand on once they lost their appeal and continued to trade. I agree that it's sad, but they were given very poor legal advice it would seem. | |||

Having said that, reading through the 'legal' notices they put up on the perimeter fence a few weeks/months before they closed, it does make me wonder. The style of language used was neither formal (in a legal sense) or even particularly professional in parts! | |||

"Bad luck for them. Such a shame for it to be portrayed as a sex dungeon place rather than what it was for me, a lovely Naturist place to relax in the day with friends. Why are nudity and sex regarded as a bad thing? "“Kinky” sex sells shitty newspapers - if we didn’t buy them, the world would be a better place. | |||

"Basically people in Kent are blessed. Not only do they have vastly cheaper house prices compared to likes of Surrey/Middlesex/Bucks.... except for Seven Oaks and Bromley area perhaps, they have a choice of 4 kestrel style clubs to attend during the day. Eureka, Silverleigh, Dv8 ( nice BBQ apparently) and a spa in Rochester which I cannot mention!! West of London absolutely fuck all!! East of London it's fuck galore!!!" Ooo does DV8 have a pool??? | |||
