"Do I have to stay in the float pod for the whole time?" 🤔

Good question. You are in full control of your float, and have your own private room. Certainly you can get out of the pod any time, and back in again if you like, as many times as you like during your session.

However, most people find that time flies when they are floating and often don't want to get out at the end! 💙

We love our Hip Pop kombucha drinks. 😋

They're 100% natural, and gluten-free. They have no sweeteners or added sugar. Plus, they contain bacillus coagulans, a special probiotic that's great for your gut health. We have four delicious flavours:

🧡 Ginger & Yuzu
💙 Blueberry & Ginger
❤️ Strawberry & Pineapple
💚 Apple & Elderflower

You can order one when you book your float, or when you arrive for your appointment, and we'll have it cold and ready for your post-float refreshment.

Which would you choose? 😍

Thanks B, you've made us blush with this lovely testimonial! 🥰

We love to hear your description of how you lost yourself in relaxation and time stood still. 💙

“What do you do for an hour?” 🤔

This is a really good question, particularly if you're not used to slowing down and letting yourself relax.

Tom floats regularly and he found he was often being asked "don't you get bored?"

Tom floats for various reasons, in particular for pain relief, and we're grateful to him for sharing his story. Check it out...

New rhubarb sorbet pops! 😍

You may be aware that we offer refreshing sorbet pops from the award-winning British business Polaicepoles, to tickle your tastebuds after your float.

The exciting news is we've got a new flavour of sorbet pops for you: rhubarb! 🩷

Of course we had to test them first (it's a hard life 😁), and we can vouch for the fact that they're both tangy and sweet, a delicious rhubarby combination.

These sorbet pops have no artificial sweeteners, in fact they're made of 100% natural ingredients, they're vegan, and are packed full of fruit. But don't be fooled by their healthy credentials - they're really tasty too!

As well as the rhubarb, we currently also have these awesome flavours:
💜 British Blackcurrant
❤️ British Raspberry
💛 Passionfruit & Lime

You can add sorbet pops onto your booking, or order them when you arrive, for your delicious post-float treat. 😋

Which flavour will you try? 🤔

"Like a holiday, but without the hassle!"

We love this float quote 😍

A float is a complete rest and reset for the mind and body. Emerge refreshed and with a new relaxed perspective.

Let the effects ripple out into your life. 💙

Have you been through the blue doors? 😍

Floating is different for everyone, and every float is different... after all, you are always changing!

There is something to be found in every float, whether it is pain relief... slowing your mind down... a welcome break from the hectic world, or something else.

If you haven't been through the blue doors and experienced a float for yourself yet, this is your chance.

What will you experience this time? 💙

💥💥 Light sessions on Sat 8th Nov! 💥💥

We are excited to announce that the Roxiva RX1 light machine is back at Float in the Forest. 😍

These immersive journeys into beautiful imagery and blissful moods will take place at specific times on specific dates, like a gig.

The Roxiva RX1 light machine uses precisely controlled flickering light, in conjunction with carefully crafted stereo effects, to carry you gently and safely from your everyday waking state into amazing states of consciousness.

You are in control: just open your eyes to find yourself back in the room, calm and relaxed. Behind closed eyelids the light conjures beautiful visions, and stimulates feelings of wonder, clarity and peace.

Not only are transcendent light experiences now available again, but we have also enhanced and upgraded our setup...

🧡 Extended duration: 50 minute sessions, so you can travel even further into wonder and relaxation
🩷 Multiple passengers: now up to three people can experience a light session at the same time

Our dedicated therapy room now boasts three comfy mats (complete with head cushion, bolster, and blanket), so you and two other friends can embark on a journey with the light together. (See comments for pics of room set-up)

We also have three float pods, and the light sessions are timed so all three of you could do a light session immediately followed by a float – ah, bliss. 💙

The first of our new light events is taking place on Saturday 8th November 2025. We have carefully curated three programmes for you to choose from, with sessions at 1pm, 3pm and 5pm. Tickets are limited to three per session.

Be sure to book in advance, and don’t miss your flight!

Now is an especially good time to become a float member! 😀

Floating regularly brings cumulative benefits, and membership will always be the best value way to float.

This is a great time because we've just introduced a new perk for our wonderful members...

Once a month we'll do a check of all memberships, and any member who has 0 or 1 float credits at that point will be entered into a prize draw. We'll draw one winner at random, and they will win a free shareable weekday float. So you could treat yourself to another relaxing float, or give it away if you're feeling generous! 💙

You become eligible for membership after you've floated with us at least once.
