Great place with an lovely outside hot tub. Various different rooms including sauna and steam room. Fairly small, however enough space to get relax. Was quiet when I went due to it being the evening after pride, however still a few nice people. Friendly guy on the door and fair prices.

Honestly, this is the worst sauna I’ve ever visited. The whole place feels extremely cramped and claustrophobic. The venue itself smells strongly of urine, and the toilets have a dry urine smell which is really off-putting. The shower is tiny, the steam room has an unpleasant smell, and the sauna itself is barely big enough for five people. There is an outdoor jacuzzi, which is decent, but it feels a bit odd being outside. The crowd also tends to be much older (mostly 60+), so it really depends on what you’re looking for. On top of that, the staff were very rude, which made the whole experience even worse. My advice: skip this place and go to Aqua Sauna instead.

Sauna is very clean and also very friendly. I had a massage when I was there on Easter Sunday. The guy who gave the massage was excellent, friendly made me very comfortable. A very relaxing experience.

The venue itself is lovely, relatively big. The staff was friendly and helpful. The place is spotless, even the cruising area. Pretty shame, it was absolutely empty, only a few old guys chased one young lad. The garden is nice, looks good with the wooden floor. Sauna and steam room were closed due this covid19. The jacuzzi is outside, was very clean, and enjoyed sitting in hot water for an hour. The advertise should be better of this place. I would recommend it for all, but if it is empty like yesterday people won't visit again. This fact is not the fault of the place, I think the gay life and generally the sexual habits have changed since people can easily find fun on apps... There are lots of cheap car parks around. Good luck!
