Patchway Hookups: Patchway Women Want to Meet

Local hookups in Patchway, where Bristol spills over

Patchway has only had a parish of its own since 1953, when it was split off from Almondsbury.

Today it's an overflow town for Bristol. It sits six miles north-north-west of the city centre and runs into the same built-up area as Filton and Bradley Stoke, with no gap between them, so the line between town and city is mostly on the map.

On paper, Patchway is twinned with Clermont-l'Hérault in France and Gauting in Germany. Day to day, its other half is Bristol, and that's the useful bit if you're after a local hookup: you live in a town, but you're swiping in a city.

Bradley Stoke next door, Bristol down the road

Bradley Stoke is barely a mile and a half away, so a match there is practically a neighbour. Bristol and Thornbury are both about five and a half miles off, the city to the south and the market town to the north, which makes Patchway a natural halfway point between them. Yate is under seven miles away, and Chepstow and Caldicot, over the Welsh border, are both around eight and a half.

If you'd rather search than wait for suggestions, VIP members can filter by city and distance, which helps when your town and the city run into each other. Meeting in the middle of Bristol puts a few miles between a first date and your own front door. Pick somewhere busy for that first meeting, and let someone know where you'll be. Our features page explains what each membership includes.
