The Forbury Hotel is a best kept secret. Why? Because people who’ve been there want to keep it all to themselves. It’s that good!

Whilst Reading may not be renowned for fine food or accommodation, once you mount the stone steps leading to the Forbury’s main entrance, you may just change your mind. This luxury hotel is the perfect place to spend a romantic weekend away with your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife.

Each lavishly-appointed bedroom contains plenty of exciting surprises. A Forbury welcome bag filled with treats, a state-of-the-art Bang and Olufsen audio-visual system, your own Espresso coffee machine (with four blends of coffee) and a stocked fridge with complimentary water and soft drinks.

Stay in a suite and you might even be lucky enough to take a bath in a free standing metal bath in front of your very own personal fire, or frolic under streams of water cascading from the monsoon shower.

The hotel is also lovely and quiet. You could be mistaken for thinking you were the only one staying there. Only when you head down to the Cerise cocktail bar might you run into another guest.

Any for those couples you love to dine, the on-site Michelin starred Eden restaurant will be able to serve you a sumptuous romantic meal that will send your tastebuds into a spin.

The Forbury Hotel really is a wonderful hideaway to spend a lazy weekend with a loved one. Trust me when I say your lover won’t be disappointing if you surprise them with a stay at this romantic getaway.

For bookings and equiries see the official Forbury Hotel website.

This beautiful hand-carved wooden floor lamp looks absolutely stunning. The nude female form is made from Dutch Maple wood, and strikes a  delicate Ballerina pose. Three bulbs in the arms and foot create circular pools of light on the floor, whilst a fourth in the head gives a warm glow. Notice the lights are controlled by tweaking her nipples!

The lamp and more sexy furniture can be seen at www.sexyfurniture.nl.

In the past year I’ve seen several people searching for information about Monogamy, the adult board game for adults. The official monogamy game website doesn’t give all that much information about what the game actually involves, so I’ve decided to put together a few FAQs.

What does the Monogamy board game come with?

Monogamy includes of a board consisting of 27 squares arranged in a circle. There are also 3 types of cards involved; 50 fantasy cards, 100 ‘His cards’ and 100 ‘Her cards’.  Each His and Her card has 3 questions on it. The set also includes dice, 2 player pieces and 12 level pieces.

What are the rules?

Each player takes it in turn to role the dice and move that number of squares. Depending on which square you land on, you have to perform and action or pick up a Monogamy card.

Every time you complete one lap of the board, you increase a level of progression. You also pick up a ‘Fantasy Card’. The levels are intimate, passionate and steamy. Each Monogamy card contains three personal questions or actions to perform, one for each level. So if you land on the appropriate ‘M’ square, you ask or do something for for lover appropriate to the level you are playing at.

The winner is the first to circle the board 6 times and gets to carry out their favourite of the 6 fantasy cards they picked up during the game. Either that or your desires get the better of you and you decided to abandon the game and get naughty!

What are the squares you can land on?

There are six different types of square on the board.

The ‘M’ – You pick up an intimate, passionate or steamy monogamy card, depending on your level. You then must then do whatever the card tells you. It could be asking your partner a personal question, or performing an action yourself.

Heart – Use your imagination to come up with something. You get to freestyle, so let yourself go crazy.

Dance – You have to do a dance for your partner. Depending on your level, this could be anything from fully clothed to a full strip tease!

Food – Eat something or feed your partner some food. Maybe you have to sexily suck a strawberry or cover him in chocolate!

Drink – Drink something. How much depends on the level. Obviously the game is more fun if alcohol is involved as it lowers your inhibitions.

Kiss – Kiss your partner. Where abouts on their body depends on the level. Cheek, lips, neck, ear, chest…

What are some examples of the Monogamy cards?

• What did you do that really impressed you, either in or out of the bedroom?
• Remember a moment when you were really proud of your partner. Tell her how it made you feel.
• What’s the funniest thing you have ever done together?
• What is it about your partner’s personality that first attracted you to him?
• Lick him through his underpants and see what stirs beneath.
• Explain in detail exactly how you like oral sex to be performed.
• If he wanted to give you a sex toy for Christmas, what would you ask for?
• Think of the rudest, most exciting sexual act you’ve ever engaged in with your partner. Now hold that thought and give him two minutes to correctly read your mind. If he can’t remember you’ll soon have the chance to remind him.
• Put some lubricant onto the soles of your feet and give him a ‘footjob’ for a couple of minutes.

Where can I buy Monogamy in the UK?

Monogamy is available to purchase from LoveHoney.

Can I see a video review?

Of course! LoveHoney has a great monogamy video review near the bottom of the page. Or watch it below.

Tingle & Twitch specialises in finding those hard to find sexy, sensual gifts that your lover will be glad to receive.

Our philosophy is that there is loads of information about dating and seduction and getting into a relationship. But once you’re in one, what do you do to keep things fresh and interesting?

So we decided to compile a collection of romantic ideas for couples. They range from small romantic gifts, to weekends away and even something for the bedroom (if your feeling saucy enough…).

Here are our top ten ideas this month, as voted for my visitors to our site.

1. Read An Erotic Story Together

Sharing a naughty novel as a couple is a great way to enhance your sex life and bring you closer together as lovers. We recommend two books by Nancy Friday: Men In Love and My Secret Garden. Both contain a collection of mens’ and womens’ erotic fantasies, written by them and submitted for inclusion in the book. You’ll be suprised by what fantasies both sexes enjoy. A fun and eye-opening read.

2. Play An Adult Board Game

Monogamy is an adult board game designed for couples heat up the evening and turn it sexy fast! Described by the press as ‘the sexy board game that’s jazzing up playtime for couples nationwide’, Monogamy is the naughty game for two that will revolutionise your relationship and take it to another level. With three progressively steamy levels and over 390 ideas and actions, no game will ever be the same.

3. Improve Your Underwear

It’s not only men who enjoy seeing women in their lingerie. Men can give their partner a run for their money buy buying some new sexy boxers or briefs. For the girls we recommend Myla or Agent Provacateur. For the boys any tight fitting that shows off your bulge should work. Those couples looking for someting a little more wild should check out James Tudor’s underwear for men.

4. Have Your Favourite Body Parts Cast

Love your partners bum? Like your boyfriend has amazing shoulders? Well it’s now possible to have them cast! You can have any part of your body made into a unique piece of artwork. Search around for body casting companies as the process is expensive. However you do get to have a fun day out together, as well as walking away with the cast. They can even make lights out of the castings to hang on your wall. Now there’s an idea…

Check out Brighton Body Casting and Life Sculptures Body Casting if you’re based in the UK.

5. Go Away On A Unique Adventure

Don’t go for the same old holidays. Get adventurous to spice up the romance. How about staying in a Tipi or a hotel made entirely of ice? There are thousands of great trips and weekends around out there waiting for you, so get searching.

How would you like to see your partner reading a personal work or erotic fiction written just for them, including specific details about your fantasy?

Recently, I have discovered something that may just be the perfect romantic gift for those of you who want something on the naughty side….personalised erotic stories.

We’ve all seen the usual drab that’s out there when it comes to finding a gift for our lover. Heck, that’s the reason this site was setup in the first place, to try and pull out the gems from an otherwise wall of mud.

A personalised erotic story really is one of those gems.

What Exactly Is A Personalised Erotic Story?

It’s a short erotic story written especially for you. You give the author a description of yourself and your partner (you can get creative here and give yourself the body of your dreams or go for more realistic) and some details you want to include, such as a place or event special to you. A good author will then take those details and work their magic, incorporating them into a story that is sizzling hot.

Stories generally start at 1,000 words but to get a great plotline going they may run to 4,000. You can specify the length when ordering.

Why A Personalised Erotic Story?

If you are looking for a romantic gift idea that is sure to heat up things in the bedroom and leave your lover in no doubt how much you care about them, a personalised erotic short story written just for them is the thing.

Here’s why:

It’s unique

I can bet 99.9% of you reading this that your lover will never have received a personalised erotic story before.

It’s different

Not only will your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife not have received an personal erotic story before, but chances are they won’t even know that such things exist! So you can be sure that when they do rip off the packaging they will be in for a truly unique and pleasant surprise.

It’s sexy and a turn-on

If you have never read an erotic story to your lover before, you are seriously missing out. It is a fast, effective way to deepen the level of intimacy in your relationship…not to mention being a massive turn-on. Having a personal erotic story to read takes things to the next level and both you and your lover benefit.

You can reuse it

This isn’t a gift that loses it’s appeal and ends up sitting in the back of your toy chest after one use. The nature of this sexy gift guarantees that it is likely to take prime position on your bedside table, for multiple reads.

What You Should Look For When Choosing Someone To Write Your Personal Erotic Story

There are a number of people who offer erotica writing services. Here are some questions to ask yourself when looking:

Who is this person and what have they done?

What qualifies them to write me a personal erotic story that will blow my mind? Have they been writing erotica for years or are they just jumping on the bandwagon to make some quick dosh? If possible, you want to pick someone who has had articles published online or in magazines, so you know that they can string a sentence together.

How personal will the resulting story be?

I’ve seen several sites that let you choose a stock story and just do a copy and paste job, replacing your name with the lead character. This is NOT what I am referring to when I say personalised erotica. Check that the person you hire is going to not only add you and your lovers’ names into the story, but also take into account any particular places, dates or fantasies you have. That way the book will be 100% unique and deliciously personal.

What do I get for my money?

Imagine sitting at your favourite romantic restaurant. The candles are lit. You are staring into your lover’s eyes, wide with excitement. You reach down under the table and product..a bunch of A4 paper that looks like it’s come straight from the printer at your office. Talk about a mood killer!

Some personal erotica writers simply write you the story then email it to you, leaving you to do all the hard work. Some on the other hand offer a professional printing, cutting, binding and gift wrapping service. The latter is far superiour because you could hand it straight to lover without having to spend hours getting the thing printed yourself.

Who Personal Erotic Stories Are NOT For

A personalised erotic story is definitely NOT for the faint of heart.

If you curl up into a ball and start rocking back and forth at the first mention of sex then stay clear. This gift is for a couple who are adventurous and completely comfortable with their sexuality.

To get the out of this gift you must be open-minded and adventurous.

Who Do I Recommend?

Adrie Santos is a published author and sex writer who has made her living for the last six years writing about all things sexy! Her stories offer vivid descriptions and take all of your ideas into account — no matter how sketchy!

Adrie offers the full personalised erotic story writing service and the finished story is even bound into a 5″x7″ book and gift wrapped before being delivered to your door.

In Summary

If you are looking for a romantic gift idea that is sure to heat up things in the bedroom and leave your lover in no doubt how much you care about them, a personalised erotic short story written just for them is ideal.

Personal erotic short stories are fun, intimate and breathtakingly sexy. They are perfect gifts for him and for her, birthdays and anniversaries. Not only will it be something they are unlikely to have seen before, but they are going to treasure it for years to come.

I am very much in love with Squire Tingle.  And boy did he treat me last night.  I think I am the luckiest girl in the world.

We hadn’t planned to go out, but it was coming to the end of a long Friday at work for me and a cheeky little text came in telling me to be at Liverpool Street at 19:30.

I arrived at the station just as a second message came in:

Across the road is a prêt and a costa.  In front is a bike rack.  Find the wicker basket.

A huge grim spread across my face and I felt my pulse quicken.  This was going to be an exciting night out.

I crossed the road and found the wicker basket attached to the front of one of many bicycles belonging to various commuters chained up in the bike rack. Nestling in the bottom was a card addressed to me.

The letter read:

Dear Mistress Twitch,

It’s been a long while since we had a proper date. Tonight, that will be rectified…

Your charming host will whisk you away for an intimate meal for two at a modern restaurant with an exciting twist. Dine to your heart’s content on sumptuous modern cuisine in the stunning atmosphere of London’s Brick Lane. Afterwards you’ll be invited to the bar to sip delicious exotic cocktails and let your mind unwind after the busy day.

Get ready because the journey is about to being…

Yours,

Squire Tingle

As I finished reading, a third text came in:

Make your way to the taxi rank.

I approached the taxi rank and noticed one with my name in the window. I got in. As I did Squire Tingle appeared through the other door.

Ten minutes later we arrived at our destination – The Brickhouse in Brick Lane.

In the words of The Brickhouse:

We aim to take you back to when life wasn’t such a rush and an evening was leisurely spent in one place.  In the style of the 1930’s Speakeasies (but without the Prohibition!) and supper clubs, we will entertain you with our varied group of performers whilst you dine or sample our stunning cocktails at the bar.

The cocktails and the food were delicious.  I had the most remarkable ox tail with a parsnip crème brulee.  Truly divine.  Squire Tingle had a a risotto stuffed pepper which didn’t look half as good as mine, but he assures me it was sumptuous.

Our table was positioned directly in front of a half-moon raised white stage, back-dropped by a red velvet curtain.

At around 9.30pm the show began.

Our performers for the night were Latino Hideaway:

Enjoy their full booty shaking glory for an authentic Brazilian cabaret evening filled with the scent, the rhythms, the swing and the sensuality of Brazilian dance. Featuring a selection of their exhilarating and infectious cabaret shows plus their interactive carnival finale where dancing is fully encouraged!  Expect infectious booty shaking rhythms amidst quirky exoticism, feathers and sequins covered in vintage, style and humour.

I loved the act.  It was exotic, fun and titillating and certainly got us in the mood for some late night romancing. At one point we were even persuaded to join twenty or so other dinner guests in a congo around the entire restaurant, covering both floors multiple times!

After finishing my desert and consuming an entire bottle of champagne, Squire Tingle and I exited The Brickhouse into the busy Brick Lane nightlife and were whisked away by taxi.

The night was a surprising, exciting, romantic and delicious experience. I’m going to have to think of a really special surprise to treat Squire Tingle back.

Hedonism is a Jamaican resort offering couples a romantic getaway with a saucy twist.

For couples who are sexually adventurous, planning a romantic getaway requires more than a candlelight dinners and romantic bed and breakfasts in the country which is where Hedonism Resorts come in.

Before getting out that credit card and booking a week at Hedonism, you should probably know exactly what you’re getting yourself and your partner into! You may well be a highly sexual couple – who doesn’t like sex? But Hedonism is best suited to those who have more of an ‘anything goes’ sort of attitude. Let me rephrase that so it’s even clearer: both you and your partner need to have that ‘anything goes’ attitude or your week at Hedonism may well be the start of your permanent separation!

I want to stress that Hedonism Resorts are not home to one giant entanglement of flesh like the media has made it out to be and not everyone who goes there is on the prowl for something wanton, but, you do need to be prepared for nudity, public displays of affection that may seem extreme to some and even a little more.

When I said that you need an ‘anything goes’ attitude, it is because at Hedonism, anything does go. It is exactly this relaxed do-what-you-want and be-what-you-want vibe that makes it popular amongst couples that are open minded all the way to those that are…well…freaky. A week at Hedonism promises seven days of doing what you want, when you want and sometimes even with whomever you want. It really is the ultimate getaway because you are completely free which is what a vacation should be about.

Hedonism Resorts are ideal for a couple looking to enjoy a truly indulgent holiday together. It can be just as romantic as it is sexy because it can be anything you want it to be – really. The fact that you can find all extremes there means that it may not be for everyone, so a trip to Hedonism is something that you should both agree on if you want to avoid any tension that puts your vacation or relationship at risk. To be clear; this is not the best option for a surprise holiday unless you know for a fact that your partner would be fine with it.

With that said; Hedonism offers an experience, or rather several experiences, like no other. It is the perfect place for lovers to connect in mind, body and spirit and push the boundaries that so many of us are restricted by at home in our day-to-day lives.

Hedonism is one of Jamaica’s prides as far as tourism goes and one that will only become more and more popular as people feel the crunch of our busy world and need a true escape like never before. One of the biggest pluses of Hedonism (aside from the obvious) is a single price that includes everything so you can leave your wallet behind with your clothes and inhibitions while there. No hidden or extra fees which mean you can really relax and enjoy without having to give money a second thought.

And finally, Hedonism Resorts are the ideal way for a couple to explore their love in a whole new and sensual way…if you dare…

Find out why the Original Tantra Chair from Zen By Design is a wonderful piece of furniture to look at, but even more fun to play on.

For the past month, the Original Tantra Chair has remained in the top spot of our romantic gift ideas chart. Visitors to the Tingle & Twitch website have obviously been struck by it’s sheer elegance and corrupted by it’s aesthetic curves…not to mention the saucy picture accompanying said item!

But what exactly does the tantra chair do? And how does the Original Tanra Chair from Zen By Design compare to other similar products on the market? Let’s find out.

What Is The Tantra Chair?

The Tantra chair’s main function is to provide a comfortable base on which to have sex. It’s shape is specifically designed to allow you to try positions that would otherwise not be possible. And if you like them you can stay there for as long as you want due to the chair supporting your body properly.

The official website says:

Enjoy countless sexual positions in a new and exciting way. Each and every dimension of The Tantra Chair was designed to enhance the sensual pleasure and provide an unsurpassed support system during lovemaking. The elegant arcs effortlessly change the pelvic angles of both the male and the female creating new sensations, new depths of intimacy and an especially comfortable experience.

I’m sure we all know the feeling of experiencing a bout of pins and needles during a love-making session, suddenly realising that you partner has been constricting blood flow in your left leg for the past 15 minutes. I can’t guarantee that won’t happen on the tantra chair but it’s a lot less likely.

The width of the chair is 16 inches wide (just wider than the average adult body), allowing you to fully recline on it, or sit and place one or both feet down on the floor for stability.

The Most Stylish Piece Of Sex Furniture On The Market

I’m sure you are wondering how you are going to explain 70 x 16 inches of sex furniture to anyone who comes over to your house. It’s too big to tuck away under the bed once you’ve had your fun and it certainly doesn’t flat pack.

And this is precisely where the Original Tantra Chair from Zen By Design excels itself. It has been styled in such a way that looking at it won’t automatically set off ’sex toy’ alerts in your brain. You could leave it in your living room on show and still invite your parents round for tea without arousing suspicion.

Zen By Design (the manufacturer of The Tantra Chair) says on their website:

The Tantra Chair™ Signature Series is one of the most unique furniture designs in the world. We use the finest quality, high-density foam to provide a firm, supportive feel to optimize the intention of the design.

The Signature Series is made with UltraLeather™ and accented with a contrast baseball stitching to subtly highlight the elegant curvature of the design. Decorative nail heads add the perfect finishing touch

The Tantra Chair™ Signature Series is stain free and stain resistant, anti-microbial and simple to clean with mild soap and water.

And I can’t help but agree. It is a beautiful thing to look at, with it’s dark wooden feet, leather upholstery and gold button trimming. At the time of writing there are 8 leather colours to choose from, ensuring that it will fit right in with your existing decor.

The Tantra Chair Positions

I could write descriptions about all the positions the Tantra Chair makes easy to accomplish, but where’s the fun in that? Instead, I’ll let a couple of pictures do the talking.

Conclusion

The Tantra Chair by Zen By Design is a fantastic piece of furniture that will no doubt give you more positions to try and enhance your love-making sessions, as well as offering you somewhere comfy to sit when you’re fully clothed.

The only downside is the price, which reflects the high build quality of the chair. It retails for $1199 in the US, putting it out of reach of the average consumer looking for a new toy. I don’t expect they let you test one out before buying either.

If you have a more limited budget then my advice would be to purchase a lower end tantra chair or the Ramp/Wedge Combo from Liberator.

However, if you are planning to buy yourself some new furniture anyway, or want a unique romantic gift that is really going to get your lover excited, then The Tantra Chair comes thoroughly recommended.

In this day and age of the Internet and getting information in seconds, one’s got no excuse for not being able to come up with a romantic gift idea for his or her lover. Long gone are the days when Fred would buy Wilma a bowling ball for their anniversary! No sir, these days even those lacking in the creativity department can find a unique and romantic gift that will delight even the most selective recipient.

When looking for truly romantic gift ideas or even sensual gifts you need to resist the urge to choose something that appeals specifically to you and really focus on something that will blow them away. I mean, you are trying to surprise them after all. Another point to keep in mind that is often forgotten when choosing a gift for your lover or spouse is that practical is NOT the way to go when it comes to a romantic or sensual gift. You want to choose something that makes the other person feel like they are loved and desired and tickets to a ball game or a set of dishes just doesn’t quite express that!

Now that you know what you should and shouldn’t do when it comes to choosing a romantic gift, let’s give you some romantic gift ideas that will blow your partner away.

Keep It Simply Sexy

Yes, you can infuse some sexy goodness into a romantic gift without looking like you have a one track mind! For women, an exquisite piece of lingerie is not just something that will make her feel sexy but will also show her that you consider her a sensual being even after a long time together. Or try a sexy gift with a focus on luxury and sensuality as opposed to blatant, brash sex. Something like the Coco de Mer Tease gift set that contains all you need for a night of delicious pleasure.

Take Them On A Unique Romantic Getaway

An impromptu romantic getaway that takes you and your lover away from life’s distractions will connect you like no other gift can. As far as romantic gift ideas go, there is nothing more romantic than showing your partner that you want to get away from the world to enjoy some real time focusing on your relationship. A weekend spent in a luxury tipi in the middle of a forest allows you a couple of blissful days where you truly get to feel like the only two people in the world. If you’re looking for something with some erotic flair and sheer decadence, then Hedonism Resort is the way to go. Talk about teasing all of the senses!

Give Them Some Eye Candy

By far one of the most unique and romantic gift ideas around is a sexy photo shoot. You may wonder where the romance is in this gift idea, but if you are a man giving this gift to a woman, it shows her that you see her as an exciting and sensuous beauty that deserves to be admired. And for giving to a man; what better surprise in his briefcase then a professional photo taken of his love just for him that features her in all of her sexy splendor laid out in an elegant boudoir setting for him to enjoy. Miss Boudoir offers photo shoots that keep a woman’s comfort in mind while bringing out her inner vixen. This is sensuality at its finest.

The most romantic gift ideas are those that make your partner feel the excitement that they felt when you first met and those that make them feel loved and desired at the same time. Keep that in mind and you’ll be well on your way to choosing a gift that they will thank you for over and over again.
