‘Site Info’ category posts

So, this site’s been on the air for a few months now, and we’re getting a steady stream of people looking for sauna information. Quite a lot of you are looking for saunas where you can go naked, or mixed saunas – or both – and we’ll be bringing you information on this soon.

Our planned searchable database of UK saunas won’t be ready until nearly the end of the year. In the meantime, we’ll be bringing you our research in handy digests like our Manchester hotel saunas post, and also guides to various situations and dresscodes. The next one will be our overview of Birmingham city centre saunas.

But if our site hasn’t answered your questions, this post serves as a general mailbag. Post your questions in the comments – and requests for areas for us to focus on next.

Hi.

We have plans. Ambitious plans.

We aim to list every publicly accessible sauna in the UK, along with the information you’d like to know. The rotas, the dress codes, the other facilities. Little things you’d like to know before you go, like is there a water fountain? And on various levels, is it a real sauna?

To clarify early on, we’re not about pick-up-joints or brothels. We’re all about the sweating. Whether it’s a council leisure centre, a fancy hotel or a backstreet gym – if it’s a sauna the general public have access to, we’re on it.

We’ll be wanting you – the general public – to contribute to the data when the database goes live in 2010. Right now, we’re still after your input in the form of feedback on this blog.

So our first question is – what, to you, is a “real sauna”?
