Planning a romantic stay? A small intimacy kit can make the difference between “nice” and “perfect.” It’s not about luxury, just the right items to keep things comfortable and private. Below is a simple checklist and some tips on how to pack it without drawing attention.
Basic comforts. A couple of soft, hypoallergenic condoms, a few lubricants (water‑based works everywhere), and a discreet travel‑size bottle of massage oil. These items are small, cheap, and cover most needs.
Personal hygiene. Pack travel wipes, a tiny bottle of intimate wash, and a small pack of fresh condoms. Wipes are handy after a long hike or a night out.
Mood boosters. A scented candle (check if the cottage allows open flames), a portable Bluetooth speaker for soft music, and a few scented oils. Keep the volume low and the scent light so neighbors won’t notice.
Privacy tools. A small eye mask, ear plugs, and a lightweight blanket. They help create a private space even if the room isn’t fully sound‑proof.
Use a zip‑top bag or a small toiletry pouch. The pouch should be labeled “toiletries” so it blends with other items. If you’re staying in a hotel, slip the kit into a suitcase corner; if you’re in a cottage, tuck it in a drawer with other personal items.
Remember local rules. In some Scottish cottages, candles are banned for fire safety. Opt for LED candles in those cases – they give the same glow without the risk.
Keep the kit lightweight. A 200‑gram pouch fits easily in any bag and won’t add noticeable weight. If you travel by car, you can hide it under a seat cushion; for trains, a small zip‑lock fits inside a coat pocket.
Check expiration dates. Condoms and lubricants can lose effectiveness after a year. Replace them each trip to stay safe.
Finally, talk with your partner about what each of you likes. A kit is only useful if it matches both preferences. A quick chat before you leave saves awkward moments later.
With these basics, your intimacy kit will be ready for any romantic escape, whether you’re staying in a hotel near Loch Ness or a cozy cottage by the water. Simple, discreet, and effective – that’s all you need for a memorable stay.
