A further 11% have done it on a golf course or in the club house and 10% in a hotel. The betting site Free Bets – 40+ New Free Bet Offers for October 2024 asked 2,000 UK men if they had cheated on their partner and where to come up with the findings.

Spokesman Tim Agnew said: “It seems that when passions boil over anywhere will do for a love tryst – even a muddy allotment or a garden shed.

“But I suppose if you are trying to keep an affair secret then you have to come up with the most unlikely place anyone would look in order to not get caught out.”

Another 6% have romped on the river bank while on a fishing trip followed by 6% who have cheated in the pub.

While some men have revealed their cheating habits, a new study has revealed the real reason why women claim to cheat. And it’s not what you’d expect. Sex expert Tracey Cox detailed a list of possible explanations.

Feeling unhappy appeared to be the biggest reason for infidelity. Almost 65% of women in the study said this was their reason for straying. It was carried out in the UK and Australia, suggesting it’s the biggest reason.

One test subject said she felt like “furniture.” Cox also added that while men crave physical needs, women are more concerned about emotions.

Another huge reason listed was for revenge. Cox told the Mail it’s an “act of retaliation,” as they respond to their partner’s action. Similarly, some women claim it’s an act of regaining power if they feel marginalised.

Cox also claims it could simply be put down to women’s physical needs not being met.
