12 Holiday Homes with Onsite Saunas

Ed Maughan

Once a niche luxury, saunas have become one of the most sought-after features for group getaways in the UK and it’s easy to see why. Whether you’re coming off the hills after a long hike, winding down after a cold-water swim, or just want to soak, sweat, and socialise in style, a sauna adds that extra layer of indulgence to any group break.

At GroupAccommodation.com, we’re seeing a huge rise in demand for large holiday homes and group-friendly stays with private saunas included and not just indoors. Many of our properties now feature outdoor barrel saunas, Scandi-style cabins, or even glass-fronted sauna pods with panoramic views. It’s part of a wider wellness trend: people want more from their time away than just a roof over their heads. They want experiences and recovery.

From rural retreats in the Lake District and Highland stays with lochside views, to designer eco-lodges with infrared saunas and luxury barns with spa-style wet rooms, we’ve curated the best UK properties where you and your group can steam together.

Whether you’re planning a relaxing hen weekend, a post-hike wind-down, or a winter escape with a wellness twist, this blog highlights the best group stays with private saunas—indoors and out—for a restorative, memorable getaway.
