Spa & sauna

Beautiful, peaceful spot and Donna is lovely to deal with.

Sauna is high spec and has plenty of room to spread out as well as multiple programs, features and music options!

Enjoy the healing benefits of the infrared light by listening to some relaxing music, a podcast or meditation or whatever relaxes your mind. Those 45 mins are just for you and your needs. The perfect opportunity to disconnect from the outside world and find your inner calm.
You will be provided with a towel to wrap yourself in. Most people prefer to go naked in the sauna to allow the skin to breath. Please note that you can see out into the garden setting through the outdoor blinds, but nobody can see you through the blinds.

At Sandhána our contemporary approach to contrast therapy is to begin with an ice cold water immersion (6 degrees Celsius) for 1-4 minutes.  Then having done the hard thing relax and enjoy a 60 minute infrared sauna heated to 55-60 degrees Celsius, depending on the program that you choose. We then advise ending the session with a final cold plunge for at least 2 minutes.

The Ultimate Sanctuary Session

New to cold plunging? This experience is for you.

We’ll guide you through the why behind cold immersion – the science, the benefits, and most importantly, how to shift your mindset so you can meet yourself fully in the cold. You'll learn simple yet powerful breathing techniques to calm your nervous system, making the experience not just bearable but deeply rewarding.

With hundreds of guided cold plunges under our belt, we’ve seen it all. We know how to keep you safe, help you get the most out of your experience, and ensure you’re reaping the full benefits of this powerful practice. If you’re new to cold plunging, this is the perfect way to begin.

We begin with the guided cold plunge experience and then you go into the infrared sauna for your session. You then have the option to have another self guided cold plunge at the end of the session.

Contrast Therapy

Sauna

Step into the invigorating embrace of cold water and awaken your body from the inside out. Our cold plunge is designed to stimulate circulation, reduce inflammation, and leave you feeling refreshed, revitalised, and deeply present.
As you immerse yourself, your breath becomes your anchor – guiding you through the initial intensity into a state of calm clarity. Whether you're looking to enhance recovery, boost resilience, or simply experience the energising effects of cold exposure, this practice invites you to meet yourself at the edge of comfort and discover the power of your own breath and presence.
Please note:
We recommend a gradual approach – listen to your body and ease in at your own pace.
Avoid if pregnant, have cardiovascular conditions, or other health concerns (consult a healthcare professional if unsure).
Please bring along your own towel for this experience.
