Step inside and feel the cedar warmth envelop you. With its great big picture-window our lakeside sauna is like a sweltering front-row seat to the stunning landscape outside where you can zone out and sweat it out to the lake water ripples and occasional passing swans. And when you’re ready, take the plunge! The cold shock of getting into the lake will wake every cell. Then back into the sauna...and repeat! Whether you’re seeking quiet solitude, a wellness reset, or a way to unwind after a day outdoors the sauna will never fail envigorate you.
​
The wood-fired sauna is free to use for all our Donegal glamping guests. ​Simply book your private 1.5 hour slot in the sauna diary in the Lobby of the Lodge when you get here.
