About
A wood-fired sauna and cold plunge in the grounds of the West of Scotland Cricket Club in Glasgow's West End. 60-minute public sessions, aufguss rituals led by qualified masters, and memberships for regulars. The outdoor setting with cold dook barrels is surprisingly peaceful for being so central.
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.
- Set in nature, away from the city, so bring a car or plan the transfer in advance.
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
- Runs aufguss sessions: a guided löyly ritual where an attendant fans the steam around the room on a schedule.
