Little Big Smoke Sauna
Escape to Stillness at Little Big Smoke Sauna
Tucked into a quiet corner of our CSA site, Little Big Smoke is a handcrafted, wood-fired barrel sauna designed for up to four people. This intimate space invites you to slow down, unwind and reconnect -with yourself and with nature.
Our strapline “Small space, big heat” says it all, though compact, this sauna delivers deep, therapeutic warmth. Gaze into the log fire, let the steam soften your senses and feel the stress melt away.
Set within a designated Dark Sky area, evening sessions offer a truly magical experience- stargazing while wrapped in heat. By day, the sauna becomes a birdwatcher's retreat, surrounded by feeders and natural habitat that draw in a chorus of local wildlife.
We've lovingly built a private haven around the sauna, complete with a cold water shower, a cozy changing room and a peaceful seating area for post-sauna rest. Every session includes an additional 20 minutes beyond your 60-minute steam, so you can linger a little longer — sip tea, breathe deep, and bathe in the stillness of the wild.
