Please read the following terms and conditions before booking. If you are not in agreement with them then do not proceed with your booking. By booking with us you are agreeing to the below terms and conditions and are responsible for making everyone in your booking aware of the rules, risk factors and waiver.

Sauna Rules

You must adhere to the following health and safety guidelines at all times while using the sauna. These rules are in place for your safety and the safety of those around you. 

  • The sauna is strictly for 12 and over. Please note that if you are below the age of 18 you must book one of our private sessions and be accompanied by an adult.
  • Do not wear any creams/lotion/tan prior to entering the sauna as these can run and can cause your pores to get blocked.
  • Do not wear any swimwear with metal attachments as these get very hot while in the sauna and can cause burns. 
  • Please remove any jewellery before entering the sauna as these too can get very hot and cause burns. Please be aware that we cannot guarantee the safety of any property left for safekeeping with a staff member while in the sauna. 
  • Always sit on a clean towel while in the sauna, this will help to keep you clean and comfortable, as well as protect the sauna benches from natural body oils.
  • Do not drink alcohol or take drugs before using the sauna as you could become nauseated, dizzy and may pass out.
  • Do not eat inside of the sauna.
  • Exercise caution when moving about within the sauna as benches and floors may be slippery.
  • Do not throw water on the hot stones when there are people near the stove, the hot steam could burn them.
  • To avoid dehydration drink water before, during and after your sauna session.
  • It is recommended you stay no longer than 15 minutes in the sauna at any one time, so take lots of breaks in the Lough or our Cold Dip provided before re-entering the sauna. Alternating between the hot and cold means you will get the most out of your sauna session.
  • Leave the sauna immediately if you start to feel unwell (nauseated, dizzy etc) and let a member of staff know.
  • Do not use the sauna if you have an open wound.
  • Pregnant women should consult their Doctors before using the sauna.
  • Do not hang clothes to dry in the sauna, as this may cause a risk of fire.
  • When showering after a sauna never use harsh soap, the sauna causes your pores to open and harsh soaps can irritate your skin. Use moisturiser on your skin after a session as your skin can become dry when the air hits it.
