Romantic Lodges With Hot Tubs

Best Romantic Log Cabins with Hot Tubs 2024

The UK is arguably one of the most romantic destinations in the world – from its quaint countryside villages just waiting to be discovered to its bustling cities teeming with life and activity, there is something for every couple.

Whether you want to escape everyday life and kick back in a cosy woodland log cabin spending your days sitting by a roaring fire playing board games, or you see yourself getting adventurous and trying new activities on a fun-filled holiday, then look no further.

You may be thinking to yourself why exactly the UK could be considered as a top place for romantic travel, and whilst you may not automatically associate the area with the romance of the Italian countryside or the lazily intimate French ambivalence, this is where you would be wrong.

After all, why do you think some of the greatest romance novels ever written, such as Pride and Prejudice or Normal People, were set in the UK? Answer: because no matter whether you are in the rolling hills of rural England or sat in the back of a London jazz bar, the UK lives and breathes romance.

Even the classically English act of going for a Sunday roast is filled with romance; think about all the love that goes into sharing a king-sized feast with the ones closest to you. So, instead of venturing further afield and flying out the country, save your pennies and explore all the wonderful things the UK has to offer.

We understand that where you stay can make or break your romantic getaway, and for this reason, we have put together a list of the top 5 cabins, lodges and cottages to stay in order to provide you with the perfect experience for you. The best part? All of these lodges include their own private hot tub!

You’re spoiled for choice in the UK if you’re booking a couple’s getaway with everything from rustic cottages to luxury lodges just for two. You can also book last-minute breaks with many top lodges available if you’re on a budget. (See our Special Offers page).

What kinds of romantic accommodations are there?

Staying at a hotel on a city break is all well and good but the freedom couples can enjoy booking their own little accommodation is way better plus you get your own private hot tub. Choose from:

• Cosy glamping pods – Not tried glamping yet? These mini-lodges are perfect of a weekend away or a one-night break.
• Couple’s log cabins – There’s nothing like getting away from it all with your loved one in the middle of a forest.
• Charming old cottages – Grade-listed properties that have been around a hundred or more years!
• Treehouses for two – Some of the most memorable lodges for a couple’s escape. They cost a bit more but there are some fab quirky ones available!
