  2. About DV8

    DV8 is a fetish and lifestyle club in the Borough of Swale that has recently undergone significant changes under new management. The venue features dungeons, a glory hole, comfortable social spaces with sofas and a log burner, and plans to add more private rooms. Nights here tend to be intimate and social, with a focus on making guests feel welcomed as part of a community rather than just passing visitors.

    Under the new management (as of mid-2026), the club is actively reshaping itself to better serve couples, singles and swingers, with the owners visibly involved in improving the space and atmosphere. The entry prices are reportedly reasonable, and you're welcome to bring your own alcohol. Recent visitors praise the welcoming approach and the range of facilities available for different interests.

    The venue works best for people seeking a genuinely social evening in a kink-friendly setting rather than a large, anonymous club night. Most recent feedback is very positive, though the experience can depend heavily on who else is there and whether the crowd feels inclusive on the night you visit.
