Four-day Swingathon sex festival in quaint Lincolnshire hamlet continues with fun in the hot tub, a fancy dress theme and body painting

Britain's biggest swingers festival has seen scantily clad revellers frolicking in a sleepy Lincolnshire village enjoying some fun in the hot tub as it enters its third day.

The four-day sex and fetish event kicked off on Thursday in the quaint hamlet of Allington, near Grantham, with one thousand people in attendance. 

So far, kinky guests have posed up a storm in barely there outfits as they soaked up the summer sun.

One not so-shy festivalgoer decided to bring some art into the mix, rolling around naked whilst drenched in body paint. 

The X-rated festival features 'play tents', pole dancing, hot tubs, foam parties, mobile dungeons and butt-plug bingo. 

Photographs from Swingathon's social media shows tents filled with elaborate sex toys such as whips and chains which festivalgoers can browse and purchase. 

The event also boasted a large 'SpicyLounge' tent on its Instagram story, alongside the caption: 'The SpicyLounge is something to behold! Along with the moon!' 

Revellers have posted an array of snaps to social media, with one couple showing off their risqué fancy dress costumes.

Yesterday one photo shared showed an attendee holding up and appearing to drink from a water hose as she stood in her underwear.

Although festivalgoers may be enjoying their weekends, irate Allington residents were enranged by the Swingathon. 

Fuming locals have complained to police about 'screaming and moaning' coming from the countryside site keeping them up at night in previous years.

One local, who did not want to be named, said: 'I heard about the noise complaints previously and its not the sounds you want to hear when you're trying to sleep.'

They added: 'It all seems a bit seedy if I'm honest, not my cup of tea. Each to their own I suppose but we don't really want or need it in the village.'

However the event has got some support from other residents, who aren't all to bothered by the sex festival. 

One commented on social media: 'If everyone attending is up for it, there's no problem.

'Let them get on with it, enjoy what they want to do, and I'm pretty certain they will!'

Kinky guests have forked out up to £265 a ticket - which gets you a couple's ticket with shower use and an electric hookup included. 

Numbers have reportedly doubled from 500 to 1,000 in the last year with organisers promising it will be 'bigger, bolder, better'. 

The event was given the go ahead despite objections being raised last year by South Kesteven District Council licensing committee and Lincolnshire Police - who cited prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, prevention of public nuisance and protecting children from harm as reasons to take issue with the festival.

Allington's community website describes the village as 'a charming village situated on the edge of the beautiful Vale of Belvoir', adding: 'Our community is lively and welcoming.'

Swingathon organisers were granted a temporary events notice (TEN) and said they've faced more support this year from the local authority.

Co-organiser Matthew Cole said: 'It's nice to have their support this year.

'Last year we had to go through a headache from start to finish, but this year is totally different and they are working so much better with us.

'They are giving us advice on how we can do better, so to have them more on board this year is great.

'I think they have realised we are not going anywhere. We have put a lot of work into the event and a lot of time into it.

'We have sold more tickets than ever and having the council on side as well, it could not be going any better than I wanted.'

The event is also incorporating another raunchy festival aimed at people with fetishes called FetFest.

Fetfest with feature BDSM and sex toy stalls, 'bookable private play areas' as well as a whip throwing area 'to get some practice in.'

The event will also have a number of bands performing, alongside DJs, dancers and comedy acts.

Other entertainment includes a Naked Attraction-style competition, drag and burlesque acts as well as sensual massages.

Social media posts since the start of Swingathon have also pictured some of the stalls at the event, flogging items including bondage equipment and spanking paddles.

Organiser Kerry Voellner said: 'The event offers a very social and safe space for people from different lifestyles to meet new people.

'This year it's bigger, better and bolder. There will be fire breathers, pole dancers, acrobats and much more.

'We have a huge LGBT space and we do a lot of workshops. There is a whole holistic offering.

'There are two festivals this year. They are separate but on the same day.

'We realised quite quickly there was a bigger demographic and there are a lot of people into other alternative lifestyles.

'FetFest is for modern people who are into fetishes. We are just a normal festival for people with alternative lifestyles.'
