A community-led sauna and cold plunge sanctuary, opening late 2026 near Epping Forest. Be first to know.
For thousands of years, cultures around the world have used the cycle of heat and cold to heal, connect, and restore. We've brought that tradition to the heart of Essex's wildest woodland.
This isn't a spa. It's a practice. A ritual. A reason to gather.
Sink into our wood-fired Finnish sauna, reaching 85–95°C. Let the heat draw out tension, open your pores, and slow your mind.
Step into the cold plunge at 4–8°C. Feel every cell awaken. Your body surges with endorphins, dopamine, and pure vitality.
Breathe. Rest by the fire. Drink herbal tea. Let your nervous system integrate the contrast before the next round.
Share the experience with your community. Some of the most honest conversations happen here, in the aftermath of the plunge.
Every detail is designed to bring you closer to nature, to your body, and to each other.
Two sauna cabins: a traditional wood-fired kiuas for the purists and a modern electric sauna for consistent heat on demand. Cedar benches, löyly steam sessions, up to 12 people each. Temperatures 80–95°C.
Two outdoor cold plunge pools fed by natural spring water. Maintained at 4–8°C year-round. Timed breathwork challenges available.
We sit just minutes from Epping Forest, right alongside the Essex Way. Ancient oaks, open heathland, and miles of trails on your doorstep. A post-session walk in the trees is the perfect finish, or kick off a summer hike before you plunge.
For those building up to the full plunge. Rainfall cold showers with forest views, still bracingly effective.
A small tea bar serving a rotating selection of herbal teas. Warm up from the inside out between rounds.
Weekly guided sessions, breathwork workshops, and community events throughout the year. This place belongs to all of us.
