About
A wood-fired dry sauna on Royal Deeside near Balmoral, booked for set sessions or hired out as a mobile unit for events. Cold plunge tub on site and a hose-fed shower for the dousing.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
- Mobile operator: the sauna travels, so the location is part of the booking. Check the current site before you arrive.
- Bookable as a private session: rent the room for your group rather than sharing with strangers.
- Mountain setting: elevation changes and views are part of what you're paying for.
