Yard Sauna is located at

Ham House Stables, Richmond

Yard Sauna is tucked away in a quiet rural yard on the edge of the city, surrounded by trees, open space, and slow, everyday rhythms. It’s a place that feels removed without being remote - calm, grounded, and naturally suited to our wood fired community sauna.
