A floating sauna will open on the Isle of Wight next month.

The UK's first mobile public floating sauna will be part of Tapnell Farm's Slomo Winter Warmer offering.

Organised by Rob and Josie da Bank, the event will offer two wood-fired Nordic saunas, and a 7ft diameter ice-cold plunge tank.

The event opens on Thursday, November 7, and will run until Sunday December 29.

Guests can also enjoy thermal messages and Himalayan salt body scrubs.

Communal sauna sessions cost £15 an hour and floating sauna sessions cost £10 an hour.

A discount is provided to those staying at Tapnell Farm.

Both facilities are available for private hire.

Rob da Bank said: "Josie and I and our crack team of sauna aficionados have been beavering away on this project for over a year now, and we’re in the final stages of finishing our floating sauna.

"We cannot wait for a winter of floating whilst steaming, dipping in the lake and our awesome six-person ice bath.

"Contrast therapy at its finest!"

Rob and Josie Da Bank founded Slomo to combat the stresses of life and have opened up several sauna and ice bath locations across the UK.

The company opened a sauna on Compton Bay this summer.

On the new floating sauna, Isle of Wight West MP Richard Quigley said: "The Island is great at firsts and it's another moment of pride for us to have the first floating mobile sauna.

"Everything that puts the Island on the map is a success.

"Good luck to Rob and his team."
