A proper sauna, not far from Torquay

Torquay is known for its coast, but the best wellness experience in the area is actually inland. Haldon Forest sits about half an hour from the seafront, up through the rolling Devon hills, and the contrast could not be more complete. If you love being outdoors by the water, you will love being in the forest too. The wood-fired heat followed by a cold plunge is the same principle as wild swimming, just with added fire.

You Can Sauna is set deep in Haldon Forest Park, around 30 minutes from the English Riviera. We run authentic wood-fired sessions with a genuine Latvian-built sauna, cold plunge pools, a fire pit, and a cup of herbal tea to finish. Over 140 five-star Google reviews and counting.
