Welcome to "Tuhka Talo" (translated ash house in Finnish), your go-to destination for an authentic wood-fired sauna experience in Hampshire.
Immerse yourself in the deeply restorative tradition of contrast therapy, where the soothing warmth of a sauna is paired with the invigorating chill of a cold-water plunge, to enhance your health and well-being.

We have two locations (3 saunas) of handcrafted traditional wood-fired saunas that are uniquely situated in serene, private natural settings.
Whether you choose one of our two saunas ("Jarvella" or "Ranta" by the lake at The Fallen Willow Sauna site (voted BEST NEW SAUNA 2024 with the British Sauna Society).
Or the tranquil setting of The Woodland Sauna, a stunning site with a spacious luxurious sauna with invigorating cold water plunge baths x3, events, showers and woodland walks, Tuhka Talo offers a deeply rejuvenating experience for everyone.

Whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day, spend quality time with friends, or simply embrace a moment of peace, our sauna sessions cater to your individual needs.
