Al-Nara Sauna

Wood Fired Barrel Sauna & Cold Plunge

Al-Nara, meaning 'she who is a flame' in Arabic, is a space for warmth, restoration, and connection. Nestled within The Old Primary School, it sits on the Athena & Apollo Ley Line, linking sacred sites from the Middle East to Cornwall—a place of deep grounding and renewal.

Move between the heat of the sauna and the invigorating plunge pool, awakening your senses and restoring balance. As one of three immersive spaces on the grounds, Al-Nara offers a quiet, sacred retreat for the community.

Step into the heat. Take the plunge. Let Al-Nara hold you.
