Q. What is Belle Baise?
Belle Baise is a swinging organisation run by a woman primarily for other women, specialising in lavish events for attractive young people. Our application procedure, which selects guests by photograph, has made us the youngest swinging organisation in the UK.

Since we started using the Belle Baise name over three years ago, we have gained an excellent reputation both for the organisation of our lavish parties and the high standard of our gorgeous guests, making invitations to our parties highly sought after across the UK. The intimate size of our parties makes us perfect for those exploring their sexual fantasies, and the Belle Baise team are well known for making guests feel relaxed and welcome.

Belle Baise parties are not open to the general public, nor are we a private members club. Our events are private parties and are by invitation only. To receive an invitation, you must first apply to our panel.

Belle Baise is not a business and is not run to generate profit. Those who run the organisation are volunteers, who do so for the love of it.

Q. Are Belle Baise parties really the youngest around?
A. Yes: three quarters of our guests are aged 30 or under and our average age is 28: 27 for women and 29 for men, though this varies slightly with each party. Some of our youngest guests are also our most enthusiastic, and because of the beautiful men and women they meet they come back to us again and again.

Q. Who runs Belle Baise parties?
A. Belle Baise is managed by Freja, who became involved in organising adult parties because of her disappointment in the sleazy swinging "scene". Like many young, attractive women, she found the swinging scene dominated by the over-40s and predatory single men. She ensures that Belle Baise parties are aimed at sexually confident women and their partners and provide decadent evenings of pleasure, whether or not you chose to take part in the play.

Q. Who attends Belle Baise parties?
A. The people that attend our parties may be experienced swingers or those taking their first steps into the world of decadent pleasure, but all will be young, attractive and open-minded.

All applicants are carefully screened by our panel to ensure that our parties really are for the beautiful people. We always aim for an age range of 20-35, (though those above that age-range will be considered) to make sure that the young are catered for. The average age of our guests is currently 28. There are plenty of swingers parties and clubs where the average age is 40 or over - we aim to be different.

Q. Do many single women attend?
A. The decadent atmosphere of Belle Baise is particularly popular with women. Candles, Champagne and flowers all contribute to making female guests feel that their sexuality is something to be celebrated and shared. We go out of our way to make single female guests feel comfortable and safe, and the single women that have attended have invariably written us excellent reviews (which can be found on the previous parties page.) Around 65% of our applicants are women, and each party usually attracts several single girls.

Q. What can I expect at a Belle Baise party?
A. Comfortable surroundings, genuinely attractive and intelligent guests, soft candlelight, and the chance to explore your fantasies. Instead of the stereotypical swinging club, we use luxury, city-centre apartments and penthouses for our parties. You will be personally greeted at the door by name (or an alias if you prefer) and offered Champagne as you enter. We make sure that your experience is luxurious and sensuous rather than seedy or sleazy.

In addition to the beds in the playrooms, we also have Loving Angles furniture, which comes highly recommended by Freja!

We do not allow the use of mobile phones or cameras within the venue, but there is an emergency on-site number if you need to be contacted during the party.

Q. How much does it cost?
A. Varies per venue, as the contribution we ask is intended to cover our venue, equipment and refreshment costs. We aim to offer the Belle Baise experience at:

£70 per couple
£30 per single woman

This price covers the whole cost of your evening and there is no need to bring money for drinks. Unlike many websites, we do not have any hidden charges or administration costs. The exact prices for each party will be emailed to all successful applicants.

Q. How many people usually attend?
A. For exclusivity and intimacy, most parties host around 35 guests.

Q. Is there a dress code?
A. We prefer our guests to be dressed in stylish evening attire rather than street/casual wear to make sure that the evening is a special experience for all. Ladies usually wear cocktail or party dresses, and Gentlemen generally wear suits (ties are optional). Remember - we are aiming for atmosphere of beauty and decadent sexuality, therefore the management reserves right of entry.

Q. Do we have to have sex?
A. Nothing will be expected of you. Most of our guests play at our parties, but this is usually after a few drinks and time spent getting to know the other guests. Many couples enjoy the play but go no further than "soft swap" or simply enjoy the view of beautiful people having sex.

If you are new to swinging, just having sex in a room with other people can be an exciting first step.

Q. Will food and drink be served?
A. Complimentary Champagne and wine are available and fresh juices, tea and coffee can also be served on request. If there is any other refreshment you'd like, you are welcome to bring it with you, (though we ask that you do not bring red wine or any other strong coloured drinks.)

We do not serve dinner, so you are advised to eat before you arrive. Nottingham has many fine restaurants, and we can recommend one to you if you are unfamiliar to the area. A light buffet will be available during the evening to keep strengths up throughout the night, and we serve breakfast foods at around 2am.

Q. What do I need to bring?
A. Most importantly, we ask all guests to arrive with photographic ID and proof of address. These can include: driving license, passport, NUS / ISIC card plus a recent utility bill or bank statement. Without these, no entry will be permitted. These will be checked against your application information.

Tickets are not transferrable and only the original applicants will be admitted. No refunds will be given to those who arrive with someone who has not applied or men who arrive without their partner. Once we have met you in person, you will not need to bring ID again.

There is no need to bring any money apart from your taxi fare home. The drinks, which are available throughout the evening, are complimentary.

You are free to bring your favourite condoms and any toys that tickle your fancy to make it your night, but condoms are freely and readily available throughout the night. Belle Baise strongly supports safe sexual practice.

Please note that we do not allow the use of mobile phones or cameras within the venue. There is an emergency on-site number if you need to be contacted during the party.

Q. What about my valuables?
A. We have a safe lock-up box in which you are welcome to store your personal documents and, if there is room, your mobile phones and wallets. This will be offered to you as soon as we have checked your identification and proof of address. There is no need to bring money to the evening, as we provide everything you need to enjoy yourselves.

Q. How is Belle Baise Noir different?
Those who come to Belle Baise Noir are interested in mixing sex and swinging with light BDSM. The parties are very different from BDSM or fetish clubs, where sexual contact is rare, and the majority of the play is bondage or S/M based. At Belle Baise Noir the focus is on sexual play and experimentation with the added undercurrent of power exchange.

With this in mind, guests are welcome to add a touch of retro, fetish or burlesque glamour to their usual outfits, but please bear in mind that Belle Baise is a club for swinging and not just for dressing up. Tight-lacing corsets or rubber dresses may look fantastic, but they are often impractical in sexual situations, and as many guests undress throughout the night, we would advise you to be careful with expensive or specialised clothing incase it gets lost.

Guests are encouraged to bring their favourite restraints or other toys to the parties.

Please note: to safeguard the safety of less experienced guests and keep our focus on decadent sexual pleasure, we do not allow "heavy" BDSM play. If you would like further clarification of this, please email Freja.

Q. What tips do you have for applications?
A. Send good photographs. Some guests send rushed, poorly posed, badly lit or unclear photographs. We need to see your face (no sunglasses), and we need to be impressed with what we see. Send pictures which show you off at your best to give you the best chance of success.

Another way you can increase your chances is to write something interesting on your application form. We like to get a sense of who you are and the reasons you're interested in coming to Belle Baise. While we do select guests primarily on the photographs, the application form often persuades us one way or another if competition is particularly fierce.

Q. Is there a deadline for applications?
A. The deadline for applications is always three weeks before the party. The deadline for payments is a week after this date. So far, we have always sold out before the payment deadline, and many people have missed the chance to attend because we received their application too late. Please make sure you apply as soon as you can to be sure of securing your place.

Q. How can single females apply?
A. As a female run company, we welcome the applications of single women. Please fill in the usual form, leaving the "your partner" section blank.

Q. How can single males apply?
A. Single males will not be accepted under any circumstance. Men who apply as a couple but arrive alone will not be admitted.

Q. Why do you want my address?
A. We ask full contact information from all of our guests for security purposes. Unlike an "off the street" nightclub, Belle Baise ensures that everyone in attendance is properly registered for the benefit of all. In case of emergency or a security concern, we need to have real names and addresses on file.

We will not send any mail to your home address, nor pass your details onto anyone else. Your address will not be used for anything other than identification and security purposes. Your confidentiality is assured and Belle Baise acts in compliance with the 1998 Data Protection Act.

Q. What happens after I send my application?
A. The panel will view your application and use both the photographs and your application forms to decide whether or not you will receive an invitation to a party. If a party date has been announced, you can expect a decision within seven days, but in the last few weeks before our deadlines, we try and turn around applications as quickly as possible.

The details you send to us, including the photographs, will be used as identification on the night, though you are welcome to give us pseudonyms in addition to your real names. If your application is not successful, we will delete your information to ensure your privacy.

If you are successful, you will receive an invitation along with instructions as to how to pay by email, and two weeks before the party, you will be emailed the exact location of the event.

Q. What happens if I'm accepted?
A. Successful applicants will be sent booking information regarding the upcoming party. We recommend you purchase tickets for Belle Baise as soon as possible as we cannot reserve your place until it has been paid for.

All guests that have been accepted by our panel are booked on a 'first come first served' basis. The deadline for purchasing tickets is always two weeks before the event; however, all our parties have sold out before our payment deadline so far, sometimes by over a month.

Q. What happens once I have purchased my ticket?
A. You will receive the exact location of the party once we have received your money along with directions and other local information. The location of the party will not be revealed until two weeks before the party, so early applicants may have a delay before the details of the party are sent to them. This ensures that the location remains a secret and no univited guests will attempt to enter. Early payment is still advised to guarantee your place.

All reserved places will be issued with receipts and can be refunded up to one month before the party date. In the last month before the party, no refunds can be given.
