A hot box by the Lifeboat House

Wood-fired, on the shore, in the conservation village of Luss. One panoramic window pointed straight at Ben Lomond, and the loch six steps from the door. That's it. That's the pitch.

the window

Panoramic, facing the water and Ben Lomond. The best seat in Scotland, and it's 100 degrees.

The dook

Straight off the beach when you're ready. Entirely optional, regularly life-changing.

How a session works

  1. Book

    55 minutes, yours. Come sauna ready and arrive ten minutes early. There's no changing room at Luss.

  2. Heat & dook

    Our perfect hour: 15 in the heat, 10 in the loch, back in for more. Never more than 15 minutes in at a stretch.

  3. Drink water

    A lot of it. You'll be doing a lot of sweating. That's rather the point.

The warden's one rule

Luss Main or Luss South car parks only. No parking in the village, cheers.

Ten minutes on foot from either car park. Head for the Lifeboat House and follow the smell of woodsmoke.
