Heat with purpose

Bespoke timber saunas helping everyone embrace healthier habits through regular heat bathing.

Interest in sauna bathing has grown rapidly across Britain as more people embrace regular heat therapy as part of everyday wellbeing. Kernow Springs has helped shape that growing appetite, designing and building bespoke timber saunas for private homes, holiday parks, hospitality businesses and wellness venues. Every project begins with the client’s ambitions, creating a sauna that fits its setting, intended use and the people who will enjoy it. The company also operates a Nordic Spa experience at The Saltbox in Wadebridge, allowing visitors to experience hot and cold immersion before investing in a build of their own.

The range reflects the variety of today’s sauna culture. Barrel, Box, Cube, Arch, Oval and Roundhouse designs provide options for gardens, commercial sites and shared leisure spaces, with capacities ranging from intimate two-person cabins to larger installations for guided group sessions. One notable project can be found at the Wild Wood Spa at The Park Resort, where a Kernow Springs sauna forms part of a wider thermal experience for guests. Each structure is built to order in Cornwall using carefully selected timber, while insulation, ventilation, glazing, stove specification and internal layouts are tailored to suit the demands of frequent use. Growing interest in sauna bathing is supported by a substantial body of scientific research. Reviews published by leading medical organisations have linked regular sauna use with improved cardiovascular health, lower blood pressure in some people and benefits for recovery, sleep and general wellbeing, while cold-water immersion continues to be studied for its role in exercise recovery and inflammation. Kernow Springs encourages informed use, pairing practical design with an understanding of how these routines fit into everyday life.

Founded in 2014 by former boat builder Martin Dean, Kernow Springs has steadily expanded from handcrafted wood-fired hot tubs into one of the South West’s recognised specialists in bespoke saunas and Nordic spa experiences. As demand continues to grow, the company remains focused on durable construction, thoughtful design and creating spaces people return to week after week.
