Discover Luxurious Hot Tub Glamping With Wigwam® Holidays
Who doesn’t like a hot tub?
The warm water of a hot tub eases sore muscles, destresses the mind and could even help with things like your cardiovascular health and blood pressure. So it’s no surprise that hot tubs make for a very popular addition to a relaxing glamping holiday!
That’s why today, we’ll take a closer look at this firm favourite among glampers and introduce you to 20 amazing Wigwam® sites complete with hot tubs.
Why are hot tub breaks so popular?
In recent years, hot tubs have become pretty synonymous with glamping here in the UK. Hot tub holidays at holiday parks and campsites across the nation offer a chance to combine an adventure in the great outdoors with blissful relaxation. But how did how tubs become the darling of the glamping crowd?
This therapeutic spa treatment has existed in one form or another since the 4th century BC, but it was in the 1950s that the modern hot tub was invented by the Jacuzzi brothers (yes, that is their real name!). From there, hot tubs of all kinds exploded in popularity: from bubbling jacuzzis complete with whirlpools and coloured lights to rustic, eco-friendly wood-fired hot tubs.
Hot tubs are a great form of hydrotherapy, easing aches and pains and relaxing the mind. That’s why they are such a great holiday companion. As there are Wigwam® camping pods with a hot tub in pretty much every corner of the UK, you too can up your staycation game with a luxurious hot tub break!
Simply sit back in the warm, soothing water with your partner or a group of friends and take in your gorgeous surroundings as you unwind and perhaps even enjoy a glass of bubbly.
Invite luxury into your life with a hot tub glamping experience
As hot tubs often sit high up on Wigwam® holidayers’ list of features they’d like to see on their glamping break, more and more of our sites offer private hot tubs to their guests.
Because Wigwam® Holidays strives for sustainability wherever it’s possible, wood-fired hot tubs are a common, eco-friendly sight on Wigwam® glamping sites. And it really is a great sight: these traditional wooden tubs look stunning next to our carefully crafted timber glamping cabins.
These Swedish-style hot tubs are usually crafted from timber and are heated by a fire lit beneath a barrel-shaped frame made from vertical staves. Wood-fired hot tubs do need some TLC to keep it up to temperature, so make sure you fire that baby up a couple of hours before you want to jump in so the water gets nice and hot!
Using paddles to stir the water is always one of the fun aspects of enjoying this type of hot tub. And that smell of fresh timber is always present, enhancing your sensory experience with a bit of natural aromatherapy.
A small number of steps or a stool is required to climb safely into the hot tub. There’s usually a lid that can be used to retain the heat while you’re getting ready for your relaxing hydrotherapy experience.
It’s a real feather in your cap to keep the fire burning and the water hot throughout your hot tub experience, but it’s a fun and rewarding challenge! And it’s all part of the glamping experience, where Mother Nature is just a few feet away and you feel part and parcel of the natural surroundings. However, there’s also a handful of sites with electric hot tubs if that’s more your style.
There are a growing number of Wigwam® Holidays sites that boast a hot tub with their fabulous Wigwam® cabins. Each site is set in its individually picturesque natural setting and gives you the perfect chance for a spot of some luxurious hot tub glamping in the great outdoors.
