Handcrafted Outdoor Saunas, Built in Devon
Bring the Magic of Sauna Home
After years of running public beach and woodland saunas, we’ve learned what makes the perfect sauna experience — beautiful heat, solid craftsmanship, and a sense of peace.
Now, we’re building that same experience for your home, garden, or business.
Built by People Who Run Saunas Every Day
We don’t just build saunas we live them. From Mothecombe Beach to Dartington to Bantham, hundreds of people use our saunas each week. Every design decision we make, the bench layout, timber choices, the heater placement, comes from real-world experience.
Each sauna is handmade in Devon using high quality local timber and is a collaboration of your desires and our expertise to create your perfect sauna.

“Working with Columb from Somewhere Sauna has been an incredible experience from start to finish.
He built me a beautiful outdoor wood-fired sauna using locally sourced Devon timber, and the craftsmanship is second to none. His communication, design ideas, and attention to every small detail were outstanding.
I use the sauna multiple times a week including for my workshops Breathe & Freeze.
Family gatherings and social meet ups are a lot more fun now we have this 8 man sauna to chat and catch up when friends or family visit — it’s become the heart of our home.
One of the best investments I’ve made in years.”
— Brett Harrington
“The sauna that we are lucky enough to own was custom built and installed by Columb Thompson.
The sauna is constructed entirely of locally sourced materials and is built to the highest level of craftsmanship .
The source of heating is a small woodburning stove. Combined with the exceptional level of insulation the heat that can be generated and maintained is extraordinary.
It is an absolute pleasure and a privilege to sit inside the sauna enjoying its matching tones of wood internally and the view outside whatever the weather or time of day.”
— Dai Jones
