12 Of The Best Airbnbs With Hot Tubs
Treat yourself to a long soak at these relaxing Airbnbs with hot tubs in the UK.
Let's face it: after a long and tumultuous year, rounding off 2023 by checking in to an Airbnb with a hot tub sounds like the absolute dream. For what could possibly be more relaxing and cosy when it's cold outside than soaking in a bubbling hot tub during a restful staycation?
To help you bring some well-deserved R&R into your life this autumn and winter, we've rounded up the best Airbnbs with hot tubs for a mini-break, whether your plans involve escaping as a couple, with friends or the whole family in tow.
Self-catering breaks have become increasingly popular in Britain in recent years, and with good reason. They offer complete freedom to holiday on your own terms, more space than most hotel rooms, the privacy of having somewhere all to yourself, and, of course, all the home comforts you could possibly need to feel truly at ease. Add onto all that a lovely big hot tub too, and you've got yourself one seriously spoiling escape.
Hot tubs are the ultimate luxury when on holiday, in our opinion. They lend the whole place a real spa-like vibe, giving you a place to unwind under the stars after long days of exploring a new destination (preferably with a glass of bubbly in hand), as well as somewhere wonderful to catch-up with your favourite people, whatever the weather brings. Not to mention the countless health benefits they come with, too.
Thankfully, you can now search for rentals with hot tubs using Airbnb's filter, so you don't need to trawl through hundreds of places to stay if you're looking for a rental with its very own Jacuzzi.
But if you're after the very best of the bunch, you'll want to keep scrolling for our pick of the best Airbnbs with hot tubs in the UK for 2023. From Derbyshire to Somerset, check out our favourites below...
