We had our second experience of the sauna on Harlyn Bay on Saturday 8th Feb. It is a brilliant experience, very kind and helpful staff and the location is absolutely perfect. Highly recommend.

Review by my wife, Michelle - my friend and I originally booked to go Polzeath sauna but on the day bad weather prevented us from getting across on the ferry. I contacted them by email and frankly didn’t expect a response in time but received a call shortly afterwards and were allowed to move it to Harlyn Bay. Super efficient and helpful! It was a wet and stormy day with hardly a soul around but this enhanced the experience. It was amazing to run down to the sea and come back to the lovely hot sauna with breathtaking views. The only thing I would do differently next time would be to book a double session instead as one wasn’t enough. Loved it - highly recommend!

Wonderful experience at the Harlyn sauna, was great to heat right up looking out at the gorgeous view, then straight into the ocean to cool off! The staff member was friendly and helpful as well, i live locally so I will definitely be back for more

What a fantastic experience. We really enjoyed our trip to the sauna, alternating between the delicious heat and plunging into the cool sea. The host was charming, the sauna scrupulously clean and the view, framed by a picture window in the sauna cabin, was stunning. We’ll definitely return

We visited on the first day at the Polzeath site and it is lovely- great facilities and well run, with excellent customer service- the guys couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. Really enjoyed ourselves.

So good, we booked for a few days later! Had a fantastic experience, the first time we did Baby Bay at Polzeath and were blown away by the experience - amazing sauna, location outstanding and hospitality was wonderful. We then went to Harlyn on New Years Eve and had exactly the same. Thank you and we will be back in March.
