Eco Sauna

Our traditional wood-fired sauna looks out across the valley and forest, where time-honoured ritual meets modern wellbeing. As the heat intensifies and fills the air, your body naturally unwinds releasing tension, cleansing deeply and encouraging slow, mindful breathing.

The soft crackle of the fire keeps you grounded in the present, while sweeping views of the Cornish countryside create a quiet sense of connection. This is more than heat therapy; it’s a return to something simple and essential.

Step out feeling renewed, with radiant skin, clearer breath and a deep, lasting calm that comes from truly slowing down.

Contrast Therapy

Transformation happens in the contrast between fire and ice. After the deep, enveloping heat of the sauna, a cold-water drench awakens the senses, your breath catches, your heart quickens and a surge of endorphins rushes through your body.

This time-honoured practice of contrast therapy stimulates circulation, eases inflammation, supports immunity and leaves you with a natural, lingering sense of euphoria.

It’s intense, invigorating and profoundly restorative all at once. The Cornish have long understood the power of water and now it’s your turn to discover why this ritual has endured for centuries.

Spring Water Outdoor Hot Tub

Unwind in the gentle warmth of our wood-fired hot tub, filled with fresh Cornish spring water and set beneath open skies with peaceful, scenic views. As the heat melts away your tension and stress the Cornish air brushes your skin and you’ll find yourself fully present, muscles softening, breath deepening and your mind starting to quieten.

The natural minerals of our spring water are gentle on your skin, while the ritual of fire and water reconnects you to the elements.

Whether you are stargazing under velvet darkness or watching the sun set across the valley, this is wild wellness at its most elemental. Step out refreshed, grounded and ready to embrace whatever comes next.

The area is reserved just for you and your guests whether you’re unwinding after a team day or enjoying quality time with friends.
