Our sauna has a maximum capacity of 6 people per session.
Sessions can be booked online. We encourage you to book in advance to avoid disappointment, but same day bookings are possible where there is availability.
Please arrive ten minutes before your session start time and avoid being late. If you are running late, you must let us know and we will do our best to still accommodate you. If you are late, we won’t be able to extend your session beyond the finish time.
We offer two types of sessions, Public and Private. Public sessions give you single seat in our wood fired sauna, where you will be joined with up to six people.
Private use provides exclusive use of the sauna for you and up to five others. It’s a great option for a group of friends or those looking for some more privacy.
Our sauna is mobile and may be able to come to you. If you would like to discuss bespoke package options, please get in touch.
Please note that sessions may be cancelled in high-winds for the safety of users and staff.

Sea swimming is done at your own risk. Applecross Sauna does not provide lifeguard supervision. Please assess the weather and tides before entering, swim within your ability, and never swim alone. Please be aware the slipway access to the sea may also be slippy.
