Our story

It started with a sauna on a beach

Glenn, Kieran and Panos together on the beach at Luss, Loch Lomond
Luss, Loch Lomond. Where Slate began.

Kieran runs Hot Tottie Saunas, a wood-fired sauna business on the shores of Loch Lomond. Full weekends, a busy gift card trade, walk-ins, weather cancellations, and booking software that kept getting in the way of all of it.

So Glenn built a replacement, one busy weekend at a time: the Saturday rush, the waitlist, the gift cards, the closing up. Slate ran the sauna first, and a feature only stayed if it made the day easier.

Then Panos joined to tell people about it, and we opened Slate up to other businesses like ours: saunas, yoga and pilates studios, and gyms.

The three of us do all of it, so the person who answers your email is the person who can fix the problem.

We set each new studio up ourselves, on a call, so we take on a few at a time. If you would like to be one of them, get in touch.

Slate ran our own sauna before we offered it to anyone else.
