Thermal Experiences

The Nest

The Nest is a unique and therapeutic sauna experience inspired by the forest canopy. Exclusive to Elveden Forest, you can recline on a body-contoured lounger whilst letting the forest work its magic.

Forest Glade

Inspired by the look and feel of a forest clearing, the Forest Glade steam room includes quaint tree stump seating, hydrating mists, forest sounds and soothing cherrywood essence - recreating a woodland haven that leaves you feeling stimulated, purified and detoxed.

Two women in swimsuits sit on round wooden stools, catching warm shower streams and rubbing arms, in a dim, spa-like room with a forest mural background and soft golden light.

Alpine Steam Room

Intense steam, rose essence and amethyst crystal work together in powerful harmony, soothing the skin, stimulating circulation and boosting the respiratory, digestive and immune systems.

Nordic Sauna

Take a seat on the aspen wooden benches and enjoy the soothing dry heat, which cleanses the body of impurities by inducing perspiration and opening pores. The floor-to-ceiling window brings the 'wow-factor', offering panoramic views of the pine forest outside.

Sauna benches line a wood-clad room, basking in sunlight streaming through floor-to-ceiling windows; outside, a small round-roof wooden hut sits in a landscaped garden with trees and shrubs.

Salt Steam Room

A large modern room with sophisticated mosaics, crystallised salt and soft glowing light simulating a salt cave. Inhale the salt vapours and experience the airway-clearing, skin cleansing and relaxation benefits.

Lava Sauna

Volcanic Steam Room

Enjoy the intense warm steam in this spa experience, relaxing muscles, easing tension and detoxing skin. The red and amber volcanic glow illuminates the room and helps you sink into a deep state of relaxation.
