The Sanctuary & Spa

Nestled in a secluded corner of The Sanctuary, The Wandering Wild Spa’s wood-fired saunas offer a restorative escape from the energy of the festival. Breathe deep as the soothing heat eases tired muscles and clears the mind, while the scent of natural wood and gentle aromatherapy envelops your senses. For those seeking a deeper reset, alternate your time in the sauna with an invigorating dip in our cold plunge tanks to awaken your body, boost circulation, and leave feeling truly revitalised. Whether you're starting your day with a moment of calm or winding down after a day of dancing, a one-hour sauna session invites you to slow down, sweat it out, and return to the festival feeling balanced, refreshed, and re-energised.

New this year, you can book the whole sauna privately for your group of up to 8 people - your own space to unwind and enjoy together.
