About

Wood Fired Sauna UK is an independent, community-focused guide to wood-fired and outdoor sauna experiences across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We've researched and verified 169 listings to help you find your next cold plunge, wild swim, or woodland steam session.

The site was built out of a genuine love for outdoor bathing culture — the kind that's been thriving in Scandinavia for centuries and is now spreading rapidly across the UK. Whether it's a beach sauna on a Scottish loch, a barrel sauna in a Welsh forest, or a mobile hire turning up to your back garden, the experience is something special.

We pull data from public listings and Google Places, then manually verify each entry before it goes live. If something looks wrong or out of date, we want to know about it.
