Warleigh Weir, near Bath
Aether Sauna is a wood-fired, off-grid sauna situated on a private island at Warleigh Weir on the River Avon, within the Cotswolds AONB a few miles from Bath. Sessions follow a structured heat journey with guided aufguss led by a trained Gusmeister incorporating scent, music, and storytelling. Between rounds, bathers can dip directly into the river or use an outdoor shower. The sauna runs on solar power and a traditional wood-fired stove, sourcing and purifying river water on-site.
