SouthWest Saunas to Launch in Haldon Forest

For the Love of Saunas

SouthWest Saunas are set to launch an exciting new wellness venture in the heart of one of the county's most popular outdoor destinations.

Jake Rocking and Yussef Robinson, childhood friends who have returned to their Devon roots, are opening SouthWest Saunas at Haldon Forest Park on Sunday, 20th July. The sauna facility will be located within a ten-minute walk of the main parking and activity hub, offering visitors a unique wellness experience in a site of scientific interest with stunning views across to Dartmoor.

The timing couldn't be better for the popular forest park, which attracts nearly 500,000 visitors annually who come for hiking, mountain biking, and bird watching. Now they'll have the opportunity to unwind with a traditional sauna experience surrounded by Devon's natural beauty.

Beauty of the Devon Woodlands

"We're thrilled to share our love for the sauna with Devon," said the duo, who are planning special launch day discounts.

Beyond traditional sauna sessions, SouthWest Saunas plans to offer forest bathing experiences and sauna rituals, combining Nordic wellness traditions with Devon's spectacular woodland setting.

The business represents a growing trend of wellness tourism in the Southwest, capitalising on the region's natural assets while providing locals with a unique way to connect with nature and prioritise their wellbeing.

SouthWest Saunas opens Sunday, 20th July, at Haldon Forest Park, with special launch day pricing available. Book at https://www.southwestsaunas.com/book-a-session. Sauna hats and electrolyte concentrates to keep you hydrated are available on site.
