Coming Soon: Escape Bathhouse Is Bringing Saunas, Ice Baths and Steam Rooms to a Heritage North Shore Building This Spring
This upcoming Roseville wellness space is by the same team behind luxe Mudgee glamping retreat Sierra Escape.
If you've noticed a rise in bathhouses opening across Sydney lately, you're not imagining it — and come spring 2025, the North Shore is also getting in on the wellness boom. Escape Bathhouse, a brand-new sanctuary from the team behind luxe Mudgee glamping retreat Sierra Escape, is set to open in Roseville's heritage-listed Seymour building, bringing with it the same sense of tranquility and relaxation for which Sierra Escape has become known.
As the number of bathhouses opening in the city continues to increase, Escape is part of a wider shift in how Sydneysiders are choosing to rest and reset. But where many other bathhouse experiences are geared toward solo escapes or quick refreshers, Escape Bathhouse is being pitched as a more social — yet no less intimate — wellness destination, welcoming couples, friends or anyone looking to carve out some time for genuine self-care.

Spread across two levels of the striking, Spanish Mission-style Seymour building, the 320-square-metre space will offer a blend of traditional and modern therapies. Downstairs, you can dip into a hot mineral pool and unwind at the zero-alc bar, while upstairs will house steam rooms, infrared saunas, ice baths and massage treatment rooms.
For Co-Founders Cameron and Tasch D'Arcy, Escape Bathhouse is a natural evolution of what they started at Sierra Escape. "We've always been passionate about creating spaces where people can truly reconnect — with themselves, with their partners, and with their friends," Tasch says. "After the success of Sierra Escape, we knew we wanted to bring that experience to a broader audience."
"The North Shore is the perfect location for us to create a sanctuary where wellness and connection are at the forefront, allowing our guests to reset, rejuvenate, and experience the power of self-care in a social and intimate environment," Tasch says. With the North Shore still largely untapped when it comes to dedicated bathhouse experiences, this launch feels like a well-timed arrival.
Whether you're having a post-gym sauna, a weekend pamper session or just looking for some time out, Escape will be a luxe space to hit the pause button — and you won't even have to leave town to do it.
Escape Bathhouse is set to open in spring 2025 at 989 Pacific Highway, Roseville. For more information, head to the venue's website.
