Did the same on a walk the Ridgeway camping trip with my mate when we were at school. We found a beautiful flat patch of grassy land to pitch on but then were woken up in the morning by an irate bloke in a landrover telling us to shift quick because there were a load of horses on their way. We were slap bang in the middle of the gallops.

Just above Avebury by any chance?

I dread to think what we would have done if we had rocked up there.

Protest too much?

Booked a French b&b this summer for a break in the driving.

It was only when the host said that the dog would have to sleep outside because of her old cats that I realised it was a nudist b&b

Who new there was such a thing!

Fortunately I used the dog as an excuse to cancel. Really don't know what we would have done if we'd turned up

Let’s hope OP doesn’t turn into one of their regular punters.

I was at a scout jamboree in the Netherlands many moons ago and went into the town with a couple of other leaders. I thought we were going to a bar or such but the destination was a sauna.

It came as quite a surprise to find things like shorts weren't allowed. A pleasant surprise but as it was mixed company, I had to stay in the Jacuzzi  😳

When we bought our place in Spain back in 1999 my wife and I decided to check out a local 'night club' fortunately the taxi driver who was taking us there spoke reasonable English realised what we thought we were doing and took us to the local Discotheque instead.

Apparently the distinction still exists.

My parents once booked us into a hotel with no windows above a sex shop in Spain. Nothing bad happened apart from it having no air con.

So a dungeon basically?
