Recovery
Heat, cold, then take it easy.
Sauna and cold water are a simple way to wind down after a hard session.
- Get warm, cool off, go againWarm up in a sauna, cool off in one of the plunges, rest for a bit, then go back in if you want to.
- Cold water after a hard sessionCold water is widely used after exercise to help with perceived muscle soreness. The sauna gives you somewhere to warm up, relax and slow down.
- No set routineNobody counts you down and nobody has to plunge. You use the heat and the cold however you want.
- Come straight from trainingArrive in kit, get changed here and take as long as you need.
As a team
Recover together.
One of the best bits is what happens between sauna rounds.
- Somewhere warm to sit togetherInstead of everyone getting straight into their cars after training, there’s a bench and a fire to sit around.
- Talk the game throughReview what went well, work out what didn’t, and do it somewhere nobody is in a rush to leave.
- Or forget about sport entirelyHave a coffee or a beer and talk about anything else for half an hour. It works as a team social as much as a recovery session.
The Sauna Hub
Both saunas, both plunges.
For larger groups, you can have the Sauna Hub to yourselves.
- Both wood-fired saunasTwenty-two people can sit across the two saunas at one time.
- Both cold plungesOne chilled to around 7-9°C, one left ambient, plus cold showers.
- Changing and somewhere to sitWarm indoor changing rooms, and the indoor bar and social space before, between and after rounds.
- Up to 30 peopleThat’s the Hub at its fullest. Smaller teams are very welcome too.

Club & team FAQs
A few things people ask us.
What sports teams do you work with?
Any, really. The setup works particularly well for football, rugby, hockey and other team sports, as well as running, cycling and endurance clubs.
How much does it cost?
Sports clubs and teams can book from £5 per person, depending on group size, timing and how regularly you come. Send us your numbers and preferred time and we’ll give you a simple price.
Can we come after a match or training session?
Yes. That’s exactly what this is designed for. If you have a regular training night or fixture schedule, we can look at finding a recurring slot around it.
Can we use the space for a team review?
Absolutely. The indoor space works well for sitting together before or after the sauna to talk through a game, training session or upcoming fixture.
Do we have to use the cold plunge?
No. Some people love it, some don’t. Use the ambient plunge, cold shower, outside air or nothing at all.
Can we book every week?
Yes. Regular weekly and fortnightly club sessions are available, subject to timings.
How many people can you take?
Up to 30 people can use the Sauna Hub as a group, with 22 able to sit across the two saunas at one time.
