Join us for lunch for the full Overland experience of fire, sweat and feasting on the edge of the Kent woods. You’ll be guided through our wild land, sweat in our wood-fired sauna and plunge yourself into cold water before coming together at a long table for a feast cooked over open flames.
On arrival you’ll be met with herbal teas and fresh fruit by your guide, before being taken on a walk around Overland, filled with an abundance of wild flowers, birds, apple, quince and pear trees, where you’ll be invited to try the seasonal products. Next, the sauna. Get settled into the wood-fired heat and immerse yourself in all its wonders - birch whisks, foraged salt scrubs and a lot of huffing. Step out and plunge yourself into cold water in our hand crafted wooden pools, followed by a nip of Overland’s ice cold foraged aquavit.
Once changed, take a seat at our shared communal tables and watch as our chefs work across our open fires or explore our beautiful site. Join together to share a cocktail to kick off your lunch, before starting your multi-course meal served with complimentary wine, as well as coffee and foraged petit fours to finish the day off.

Bring your swimwear, 2 towels (1 for sitting on for hygiene reasons in the sauna and 1 for drying off), a water bottle to rehydrate during sessions, flip flops/sliders are ESSENTIAL and a bathrobe/swimrobe if you wish.
Day wear or underwear is not permitted in the saunas. There are changing cubicles but it’s a good idea to come in easy, comfortable clothing to allow for a quick change.
Travel light and if possible arrive ready to sauna!

Nature is unpredictable and the weather really is out of our control, although we do try our best. However, we’re prepared as we can be for different weather conditions. Our dining table will be covered in case it does rain. In cases of extreme weather, we may need to move start and finish times but we will always do our best to ensure the date at the least stays the same.

Unless you have booked the whole sauna out, yes and the communal nature of this only heightens the experience. Private Hire: If you prefer to hire the event privately, you will need to book all ticket for the event. Please email.

Absolutely. We can entertain parties of all sizes and if you were interested in booking the whole event or had a specific date in mind then please let us know.

If you were to book one of our saunas for exclusive use, you’re welcome to sauna in the German and Finnish way, however you will need to cover up outside the sauna and in the shower area as this is open to the public. This could be with a hammam towel that you don’t mind getting wet. Clothing is compulsory if you’ve booked an individual ticket. We ask that every everyone sits on a towel at all times in the sauna.

We may be able to offer an alternate date if we can fill the places you have booked.
We reserve the right to cancel and refund in full any sauna event. This is due to a number of variables.
