Surrounded by pine trees, mountain views, and peek-a-boo glimpses of our neighbourhood lake, you’ll find Graystar Spa.
Guests of Graystar Wellness Farm who are staying onsite in the cottage, have free to access the Outdoor Spa. We fire the Spa up for you the first time – and you’re welcome to stoke your own fires after that.
We provide the firewood and kindling – you get to decide when and for how long, you’d like to access the spa area. (Guest spa guide is available in the cottage AND emailed upon booking)
For thousands of years, Scandinavians relax amidst the beauty of nature in hot springs and rivers. The hot-cold contrast of their bathing practice provides numerous health benefits and total relaxation.
This traditional hot-cold-relaxation circuit is now commonly known as the Nordic bath circuit, Nordic spa treatment, or an Outdoor Thermal Spa experience. These types of spas are located near forests, along rivers, and by mountains, providing spectacular views of nature while guests complete the invigorating and relaxing circuit.
This Nordic circuit starts with heating the body by working up a sweat in a sauna, spa, hot tub, or steam room. Next comes the cold of plunging into a cold river or outdoor cold plunge. Finally, to bring the body back to its regular state, the last part of the circuit involves relaxation in a spa, steam bath, or wrapped in a bathrobe by the fire, enjoying the serene natural environment.
Guests attending retreats or workshops here also have access to the Spa as part of our Wellness Farm Offerings.
If you’d like to book the Spa for your own PRIVATE EVENT – please contact us directly to do so (based on availability)
