Wood-fired · Changing area · Cold plunge
The Sauna Society's Monaghan site sits on the shore of Hollywood Lake, a wood-fired sauna with the lake itself for the cold half. It's a gorgeous addition to the area and people come out of it saying they feel amazing, which is about the highest praise a sauna gets. Changing rooms and cold plunge on site.

“Had the most wonderful time here with my nephews as a treat as I was born in Monaghan but fled for work abroad. Truly has transformed what was already a beautiful location into a place of tranquility…simply stunning!!”

“Have been a few times, always feel amazing afterwards! It’s a gorgeous new addition to the area. The sauna is really spacious, warm, clean and has a great view of the lake, especially at sunset. There’s changing areas and toilets near buy and hooks for your towel. The lake comes up about chest high where you get in so it’s perfect to stand or swim in.”
