Sauna & Cold Plunge
The ancient art of contrast therapy, in the Wiltshire countryside.
What we offer
Finnish Sauna.
Cold Plunge.
Our hand-built Finnish-style barrel sauna reaches 90°C and is fired by a traditional wood stove. Step out into the natural cold plunge pool — fed by filtered rainwater and maintained at a bracing 10–15°C year round. The contrast protocol — heat, cold, rest, repeat — is one of the most effective wellness practices known.
