Sacred Ember sauna craftsmanship

The Maker

Built with heart.
Crafted with soul.

Sacred Ember was born from a simple belief — that the spaces we inhabit shape how we feel, how we heal, and how we connect. Based in Yorkshire, we design and build bespoke saunas and wellbeing huts for people who take their health seriously.

Every structure is a blend of Scandinavian minimalist metalwork and warm, bespoke natural timber. The floors are as considered as the ceiling. The fire is the heart of everything.

"Creating saunas and wellbeing spaces with heart and soul — for people who care deeply about themselves, their families, and their surroundings."

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

Typically 45–60 minutes to reach a good heat, depending on the size of the sauna and outside temperature. The ritual of lighting the fire and waiting is part of the experience — it gives you time to slow down before you even step inside.
Every build is bespoke, so we work with the space you have. As a rough guide, a standard sauna hut can fit comfortably in a garden from around 4m x 4m. We'll always visit your site before designing to make sure everything fits perfectly and feels right in its setting.
Yes. Our structures are built to withstand Yorkshire weather — four seasons, all conditions. In fact, a wood-fired sauna in winter is one of life's great pleasures.
We're Yorkshire-based but happy to discuss projects further afield — particularly for the right commission. Get in touch and let's have a conversation.
It varies depending on the complexity of the design and our current schedule. After an initial conversation we'll give you a realistic timeline. We'd rather take the time to do it properly than rush something that's meant to last a lifetime.
Very little. Keep the inside clean and dry between uses, sweep out ash from the firebox regularly, and treat any exterior timber annually. We'll give you full aftercare guidance when your build is complete.
Most garden sauna and wellbeing hut installations fall within permitted development rights and don't require planning permission, but this depends on your property and location. We recommend checking with your local authority before proceeding, and we're happy to advise based on our experience.
