PLEASE READ

Before you visit

Everything you need to know before your first sweat. From what to bring to what to expect when you arrive, here’s a quick guide to help you feel comfortable and ready to sauna.

Please arrive early

We'd love you to make the most of your sauna session, it could take a while to find us, get changed and settle in.

Bring with you…

Swimwear, two towels, water bottle, bag for wet clothes, padlock if you plan to use a storage box, sandals and warm clothes.

Cancellations / refunds

You can cancel your booking up to 24 hours before your session for a full refund. If you need to cancel within 24 hours, you can contact us to request an exchange for another available session.

Sauna etiquette

Keep things relaxed and respectful. Sit or lie on a towel, keep voices down when others are resting, and give people space. If you’re not sure what to do, just ask, we’re happy to show you the ropes.

What to wear

Please wear swimwear in the sauna and cover up with a towel when outside our sauna yard. We recommend swimwear with minimal metal, as some materials can get very hot in the sauna.

One last thing

Come as you are. You don't need to know anything about sauna, be super fit or have done a cold plunge before. We’ll help you get comfortable.
