Set directly on the shoreline at West Sands, St Andrews, this wood-fired sauna offers a beautifully simple and fully private way to slow down, warm up and reconnect with nature — just you and the people you choose. Designed for couples, friends or small groups, each booking grants exclusive use of the sauna for the duration of your session. There’s no sharing with other guests, no rush, and no distractions — just heat, sea air and time to unwind at your own pace. Inside, the sauna is traditionally fire-heated, allowing warmth to build slowly and deeply. Step outside between rounds to take in panoramic views across West Sands and the North Sea, cool off in the fresh coastal air, or — for those comfortable with cold-water immersion — take an invigorating dip in the sea. Whether you’re celebrating something special, carving out time to reset, or simply looking for a quiet, restorative escape, this is a private sauna experience shaped around you.
