Best Places for Glamping With Hot Tubs in England

England is made for glamping with a hot tub. In a single country you can go from heather moors in the north to surf beaches in the south west, from the fells of the Lake District to the quiet farmland of the east, and almost everywhere there is a warm, bubbling tub waiting at the end of the day. With more than thirty English hot tub sites in the Wigwam® network, the real question is not whether there is one near you, but which landscape you want outside the cabin door. This guide takes you round the country, region by region.

Yorkshire: the biggest choice in the north

Yorkshire has the widest choice of any English county in the network, with five hot tub sites spread from the moors to the coast. Humble Bee Farm near Scarborough is the family favourite, a working farm between the Wolds and the sea, while Sedgewell Barn and Water Hall Farm put walkers between the Dales and the North York Moors. Over in the East Riding, Ball Hall Farm and Bainton Burrows trade high moors for big skies and quiet lanes.

Northumberland: dark skies and empty beaches

For stargazers, Springhill Farm at Seahouses is one of the best placed sites in the country, minutes from the castles and empty beaches of the Northumberland coast and within reach of the darkest skies in England. A hot tub here on a clear night is genuinely special.

Cumbria and the North West: fells and forest

On the western side, Eden Valley and Brampton bring warm water to Cumbria, with the Lake District fells, the Eden's red sandstone villages and Hadrian's Wall all close at hand. In Lancashire, Kidsnape Farm near Preston sits by the Forest of Bowland, an easy escape for anyone in Manchester or Liverpool.

The Midlands: England's most reachable soak

The Midlands is where a hot tub break becomes a spontaneous weekend rather than an expedition. Charnwood Forest in Leicestershire sits in ancient woodland almost exactly in the middle of England. Sherwood Pines near Nottingham puts cycling and walking trails on the doorstep in the heart of Robin Hood country, and Fir Tree Farm in Shropshire offers quiet border country near the Shropshire Hills. In Staffordshire and beyond, smaller sites fill the map, which is why the Midlands is often the fastest route to warm water for most of the country.

The East: big skies and easy roads

Eastern England keeps things calm. Millside and Crowtree in Lincolnshire sit in open fenland country with easy access from the A1, and Suffolk adds gentle countryside within reach of the Heritage Coast. These are the sites to pick when you want quiet above all else.

The South and South West: coast and countryside

In Somerset, Secret Valley near Bridgwater is the standout southern base, tucked into a quiet valley within reach of the Mendips, the Levels and the coast, and well placed for Bath and Bristol. Chawton Park Farm in Hampshire brings warm water to Jane Austen country near Alton, an easy reach from London and the south east. And down in Cornwall, Grassington Farm near Helston puts the Lizard peninsula's beaches and coves within a short drive. Southern sites are fewer than in the north, so book these early for summer and school holidays.

How to choose

If you want the widest choice and best availability, head north to Yorkshire. If dark skies matter most, make it Northumberland. For the quickest escape from a city, the Midlands wins, and for a coastal soak look to Cornwall, Somerset or the East Yorkshire shore. Wherever you go, check the individual cabin listing before booking, since hot tubs are offered on selected cabins at participating sites.

The best time to visit

England rewards visitors in every season. Summer suits families and coastal trips, autumn brings colour to the moors and dales, and winter delivers the coziest soaks of all. If the colder months appeal, our guide to winter glamping with a hot tub is a good read before you book.
