“You name it, they had it”

As soon as I walked in the main dungeon room and saw all the equipment and furniture I got a little excited. The room is kitted out with everything you could possible think of, you name it, it had it. Read more

“The selection of toys was comprehensive and wide ranging, including a few surprises…”

What a great time we had at The Serpent Rooms … from the first contact until the moment we left everything was just perfect. Read more

“The night was deliciously interminable”

I suffered merciless caning and flogging on the stool and shackled, uncomfortably against the stone wall, CBT, trapped like a fly in the swaying sling, hours of hooded misery. Read more

“Looking for somewhere to play? You’ve found it.”

 The Serpent Rooms is ideal. You will never run short of inspiration, with the bountiful supply of ropes, shackles, devices and furniture. Read more

“The dungeon furniture can a keep Master like me busy for hours .”

Wow – what a great dungeon. I am a professional Master and have been to many play rooms and dungeons, but The Serpent Rooms are something very special. Read more

“Our time in The Serpent Rooms has made a huge impact to our private time”

As newbies to the scene, I couldn’t recommend it highly enough and reading other reviews before we booked it would appear the needs of others who have been in the scene for much longer are very well catered for too… Read more

While silence can sometimes be a powerful tool during a scene, it can be fun, creative and very atmospheric to use music to set the scene when preparing for a session.

Not sure what to choose? Remember to pick something that’s consistent in rhythm – it can be jarring if something swaps from slow to fast, and can really break the mood in the scene!

Also, try to bear in mind the overall tempo. A slow scene that’s intended to drag on for a long time will be better with lower BPM albums, while intense scenes could benefit from faster music. And remember, don’t make it too loud! Unless you’re deliberately trying to stop your sub from hearing what’s going on …. 😉

White noise

For longer scenes, or ones that involve elements of sensory deprivation, consider static, white noise, or binaural beats to create a disarming and confusing mood. Or try music that has lyrics in a foreign language. If that’s not quite enough, or you’d like to make it even more erotic, you can also layer audio from porn over the top for an extra element.

Music

If you prefer, you can go for something more traditional, like one of these albums and songs that come highly praised for scene-setting from around the web. Click through to see more recommendations.

The Vetinari Clock

Finally, we’ve heard good things about the evil-sounding Vetinari Clock….

The clock in Lord Vetinari’s anteroom didn’t tick right. Sometimes the tick was just a fraction late, sometimes the tock was early. Occasionally, one or the other didn’t happen at all. This wasn’t really noticeable until you’d been in there for five minutes, by which time small but significant parts of the brain were going crazy.

It’s no secret that we’re very proud of our dungeon equipment down here at The Serpent Rooms. Not only do we have one of the best ranges of toys and restraints for miles around, but many of them are one-off, custom made pieces…which means that when you hire us out, you’re getting a unique experience.

Here’s a few brand new shots of some of our recent favourites…

Shopping online is a great way to expand your collection of toys – you can browse and compare from the privacy of your own home, at any time of the day, only for some exciting to come through your letter box a few days later.

But what if you’d like to see things in the flesh before you purchase? Maybe you want to try something on first before buying it,  or perhaps you have questions? Going in person to shop in the flesh can be a very exciting experience, for both you and your partner, and can even be a good way meet people, like at the London Alternative Market..

Here are a handful of the shops in London that we enjoy visiting to buy our kink in person… if you know of any more, let us know on Twitter by tweeting @theserpentrooms
