6 Person Garden Sauna Cabins: EDEN® & AIRA®
A 6 person garden sauna offers the luxury of scale without losing intimacy. For some, it’s a way to make the garden the true centre of family life – a place to gather after long days, weekends, or celebrations. For others, it’s about creating a quiet retreat that feels set apart from the house; standing as both a wellness space and architectural statement.
In the Finnmark collection, two cabins bring these ideas to life:
- EDEN®: Luminous and conversational, with panoramic glazing that frames the garden beyond. EDEN® makes the outdoors part of the ritual, allowing light to flow in by day and letting the glow of the sauna transform the garden at night. It’s a design for those who see the sauna as both a retreat and a social setting.
- AIRA®: Minimalist and sociable in its own way, AIRA® is about stripping back to essentials. With clean lines and a calm interior, it creates a setting where the focus is on heat, timber, and presence. Simple, adaptable, and deeply connected to the Finnish tradition of sauna bathing.
Both cabins are built with weather-resistant Nordic timber, designed to endure year-round and deliver authentic heat with energy-efficient systems.
6 Person Outdoor Sauna Barrels
A barrel sauna is instantly recognisable – a sculptural cylinder of timber that feels at home in almost any garden. For six bathers, the curved form delivers more than visual interest: it improves air circulation, helping the sauna heat quickly and evenly.
In the Finnmark collection, six-person barrels come in several formats:
- Standard length: compact yet comfortable for groups.
Extended versions: providing more bench depth and legroom. - Barrels with changing rooms: adding extra function in colder weather.
Whichever style you choose, each 6 person outdoor sauna barrel is crafted from thermo-treated Nordic timber, weather-resistant and built for decades of use; becoming a landmark for relaxation.
The Shared Ritual of Detail
A 6 person external sauna is generous by nature: more benches, more presence, more time spent together. Sauna accessories carry this generosity further, ensuring the ritual is not just larger but deeper.
With six bathers, the löyly ritual becomes collective. The ladle passes from hand to hand, water strikes the stones, and steam rises into a silence that is briefly shared before giving way to conversation or contemplation. A luxury bucket and stone set supports the rhythm of groups, ensuring the heat feels alive session after session.
Atmosphere spreads in layers. A drop of birch or eucalyptus oil transforms warmth into scent, filling the wooden interior with notes that shift the mood from invigorating to calming. A bundle of fresh birch twigs (vihta) awakens the skin and stirs circulation, an echo of traditions kept alive in Finnish summers. Lighting can be tuned for tone – brighter for gatherings, softer when the sauna is a place of retreat.
Comfort also grows in importance when more people share the space. Headrests, seat linens, and pillows invite longer sessions, protecting the timber while giving each bather a place to settle.
In a smaller sauna, accessories refine the experience; in a 6 person garden sauna, they define it. They turn capacity into comfort, and a structure of timber into a space of enduring connection.
FAQs
Do I need a large garden for a 6 person outdoor sauna?
Not necessarily. While a 6 person outdoor sauna is larger than a 2–4 person model, it doesn’t demand a vast garden. Barrel designs are compact and efficient, often fitting neatly into smaller spaces, while cabins like EDEN® or AIRA® make a stronger architectural feature in larger settings. Planning a clear, level footprint is usually the main consideration. If you’re unsure how a sauna would work in your garden, contact Finnmark for tailored advice.
What kind of foundation is required for a 6 person garden sauna?
A stable, level base is essential. Most 6 person garden saunas can be installed on concrete pads, paving slabs, or a timber deck designed to bear the weight of the structure. Good drainage is also important to protect the wood and ensure long-term durability. This simple groundwork supports sustainable building options that keep the sauna performing for decades.
How long does it take to heat up a 6 person external sauna?
Heating time depends on the type of heater, the season, and where the sauna is placed. Electric models usually warm more quickly, while wood-burning stoves take longer but create a traditional Finnish atmosphere. In summer, your sauna may be ready in under an hour; in colder months, it naturally takes longer to reach the desired temperature. A modern temperature control system helps manage heat consistently for all bathers.
How much energy does a 6 person sauna use?
Energy use varies by heater size, frequency of use, and insulation quality. A typical 6 person sauna heater draws between 6-9 kW, though efficient insulation and mindful operation can reduce costs. Choosing an energy-efficient design like Finnmarks models helps balance performance with sustainability, keeping running costs manageable while delivering authentic heat.
What maintenance is required for a 6 person wooden sauna?
Maintenance is relatively straightforward. Regularly wipe benches and floors after use, allow the sauna to dry thoroughly, and treat exterior wood with a protective oil or stain when needed. Stones should be checked and replaced if cracked. With simple care, a 6 person wooden sauna will stay resilient against weather and use, ensuring long-term reliability.

Can a 6 person outdoor sauna be used year-round?
Yes. All Finnmark saunas are crafted from Nordic timber and weather-resistant materials, built to withstand both summer heat and winter frost. Paired with efficient insulation and reliable heaters, a 6 person outdoor sauna is designed for year-round use, making it a consistent part of your wellness routine whatever the season.
