A wood-fired sauna on the wild Argyll shore.

Sauna by the Sea

Our new wood-fired sauna sits right on the shore at Lunga, with the sea only a few steps away for a proper cold plunge.

Sauna Sessions

Standard Sauna Session — £15

50 minutes

Settle in, warm through and enjoy a proper wood-fired sauna by the sea.

Our standard sessions last 50 minutes, giving you plenty of time to heat up, cool off with a dip in the sea, and go back in for another round.

Perfect whether you’re staying at Lunga Pier & Shore, visiting for the day, or just fancy an hour by the water.

Our winter sauna opening times are now:

Thursday 3pm - 7pm
Friday: 3.30pm–7.30pm
Saturday: 10am–7.30pm
Sunday: 10am–7pm

We’re keeping things a little more compact over winter, with concentrated opening times across the weekend. Extra sessions and special openings may be added from time to time, so keep an eye on our HotDougall Sauna Co Social Media pages for updates.

Book ahead where possible, especially for Saturday sessions.

£15 per person

Kids’ Warm-Up Sauna

30 minutes · Weekends only · £3.50 per person

A gentler introduction to sauna for younger visitors, held while the wood-fired stove is warming up for the day.

These relaxed 30-minute sessions are for children aged 5–15 and run at a lower temperature than our standard sauna sessions — a lovely way to give sauna a try without jumping straight into the full heat.

Children must be accompanied in the sauna by an adult, and both child and adult need their own £3.50 place.

Under-5s can’t use the sauna.
