Sauna Hut Wales origin story
A family business
We (Bethan, Barney and Tid) were inspired by our travels in a number of sauna loving countries, where daily sauna use is the norm. We experienenced a range of different saunas, in different environments, with a variety of people and came to understand the benefits of a quality sauna experience. This experience was focused around the sauna, but often included the company of others, cold water immersion and time outdoors. We came to realise that it was the combination of these elements that was most beneficial. So we designed and built a beautiful mobile wood fired sauna and plan to explore how we can offer an exceptional sauna experience to a Swansea and Gower communities.
