Health benefits of a hot tub holiday
More than just a bubbly treat
There’s so much to gain from time in the tub; from stress relief and muscle relaxation to improved sleep. After a day of discovery in the forest, slip into your hot tub and relax amongst birdsong and breath-taking views. It’s that extra dose of Forest Feeling that makes the difference. Why not create your own forest spa? Unwind with a treatment in the comfort of your cabin. We promise, it feels even better amongst the forest. Psst... looking for holiday cottages with hot tubs? Our Golden Oak Cottage at Keldy, North Yorkshire has a private sauna too!

Hot tub safety
Your hot tub will be ready and waiting for you to unwind, with plastic glasses provided so you can enjoy a first night drink whilst you’re soaking it all in.
We check your hot tub daily, so you might spot one of our team out doing some tinkering to keep the water just right for you.
We do ask not to bring pets or children under four into the tub, for their safety. We’d recommend a quick shower before and after your soak (using the towels provided) – and it’s best to pack some flip flops or sliders to help you move around the wet decking.
To help you get in and out safely, there’s a quick safety video you can watch on your TV once you arrive – and our team will always be around to help you.
