What makes Home House special?
A Storied Playground
Home House is more than just a club—it’s a vibrant playground. With 23 luxurious bedrooms, each space offers a unique experience, adorned with features like hand-painted silk wallpaper and shimmering gold ceilings. Even the club’s own gin has gained accolades, earning a silver medal at the 2023 World Gin Awards.
The club is famously relaxed in its approach, with a ‘no rules’ philosophy—where ‘nudity is simply discouraged’. This easy-going attitude contributes to the club’s eclectic atmosphere, making it a haven for the elite, creatives, and those who appreciate the extraordinary. Tatler has highlighted its history, from its Georgian origins to its roster of celebrity guests, further solidifying Home House’s reputation.

The club’s upcoming Halloween House Party is set to be the most talked-about event of the year, continuing the tradition of unforgettable celebrations.
