There’s nothing quite like soaking in a steaming hot tub, high in the treetops, with birdsong overhead and the scent of pine in the air. Tucked away in a treehouse, surrounded by woodland, you’re not just escaping, you’re resetting. Studies show that time spent in forests surrounded by trees can lower stress, boost mood, and improve overall mental health, making a nature retreat one of the best ways to recharge.
Whether you’re swapping city noise for rustling leaves or screen time for starlit soaks, our favourite treehouse breaks with hot tubs offer the ultimate wellness escape. Each one has been personally inspected by our team to make sure it delivers on comfort, charm, and that all-important canopy magic.

While there is much joy to be found the rustic charm of a wood-fired hot tub, you’ll be forgiven for preferring the convenience of a flick-of-a-switch tub, where the bubbles are instant and the bliss is immediate. The hot tub at The Den Treehouse is the latter. Forget chopping wood. Here, you can turn up and relax straight into the glorious fizz of a ready-to-go tub.
And the hot tub’s just one highlight. There’s also an indoor/outdoor breakfast bar, a massive wraparound deck, all set on an estate full of character, where you can do everything from croquet on the lawn to family-friendly animal tours.
Pizza Oven – Wildlife – Sea Views
Handcrafted by its owners, this multi-storey wonder blends treehouse living with loft-apartment vibes. Think pizza oven, two balconies, a cosy reading nook, and of course, a gleaming hot tub to crown it all.
The surrounding area is just as exciting: dolphin spotting in New Quay, top-notch food in Aberaeron, and epic views at Devil’s Bridge Waterfalls.
Private Woodland – Wildlife Trails – Slow Living
One for the woodsmoke haired, ash-fingered purists, with a good ol’ fashioned (although very swish and new) wood-fired hot tub. Add an outdoor firepit and a warm, minimal interior, and you’ve got yourself the perfect slow-living experience in the heart of Norfolk.
This one is all about the small pleasures. Cooking over fire, listening to the trees from your steaming tub, then rinsing off in the hot shower with the complimentary Faith in Nature toiletries before settling in for night. It’ll set you up for the gentle feel of Norfolk generally, which is a place to wander rather than dash, from the coast to The Broads to the lofty retreat of your treehouse.
Wellness Stay – Bike Rental – Beaches Nearby
Glass, water and wood. Chui Treehouse wraps you in both beauty and nature, and huge windows mean the views follow you around every inch of the space. The private wood-fired hot tub is sat in a little orchard in front of the treehouse, so you’ll hear birds chirping all around you as you steam your worries away.
The owners have brought a little of their years in Tanzania back to Cornwall, so while there’s a safari lodge feel that’ll have you keeping an eye out for elephants, you’ll have to make do with the deer, badgers and foxes that forage beneath you. If you fancy a walk, there’s a 45-minute trail to the pub through peaceful woodland.
Wildlife Rich – Family Friendly – Riverside
Our favourite thing about this treehouse has to be the long wooden walkway that connects the elevated escape directly into the ancient oak trees surrounding it. You can take some cushions down and just lie there, in the trees, after padding barefoot across the boards. It feels part luxury retreat, part Robin Hood.
Soak in the wood-fired hot tub while plotting adventures around the River Esk, or simply flit between hot tub and walkway, and look out for the deer below.
Wellness Stay – Beach Nearby – Sauna
A triumph of design, this is a two-storey treehouse, located in a wooded valley that runs all the way to the sea. And just when you think it can’t get more impressive, you’re informed it’s made from reclaimed wood all the way from Kentucky, and there’s Japanese Shou-sugi ban treatment on the cladding.
The spa setup is incredible. You’ll not only find a two-person wood-fired hot tub, but a barrel sauna to steam away stress, a cold bucket shower for that all important contrast therapy, and even a clawfoot bath at the foot of your bed, if you truly can’t even be bothered to make it out to the deck.
Group Getaway – Mountain View – Games Room
Swaddled in a thicket of trees, you’ve got far reaching views of the countryside from the windows and your spacious deck. Silva Treehouse is playful and peaceful in equal measure. The owners offer a ‘Pop & Plunge’ package, where they’ll have your wood-fired hot tub ready on arrival as well as a cold bottle of fizz waiting for you in the fridge, so this treehouse is a great choice for a special occasion.
Once you’re done in the tub, there’s a slide built into the deck that catapults you straight out into the woods, and more importantly, the hidden games room with a bar.
Wellness Stay – Sauna – Rain Shower
Cran Darach has been built around two oak trees that wind their way through the impressive circular structure that has been built with relaxation in mind. Your stay includes an unlimited number of logs for the wood-fired hot tub for four, so you can bubble the entire weekend away and prune your fingers into oblivion if you fancy it.
There’s a sauna and an outdoor rain shower to play with too, so you can fully reap the benefits of contrast therapy all in one space. And for the final touches, you’re provided with bath robes, flip flops and organic and locally sourced shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel, which takes the luxurious spa like feeling up a notch.
Off-grid – Sauna – Dog-friendly
This one is for the nostalgic folk who are looking for a treehouse that returns you to those childhood days of building dens and running around the woods with no sense of time or the nagging feeling of needing to be somewhere else. You’ve got Beano magazine wallpaper, swaying walkways and baskets on ropes, which we recommend using to carry the wine down to your wood-fired hot tub.
Two sacks of firewood are provided per night, so you can spend plenty of time soaking in between everything else, which can involve everything from wild cooking local produce on the Dutch oven, napping in the gypsy van, or making use of the sauna.
Organic Farm – Outdoor Shower – Off-Grid
Set on the grounds of an organic farm, this luxurious treehouse is wifi free, meaning a fully off-grid, back to nature experience. It’s the perfect place to hide away in the trees with nothing to worry about for a few days.
Your private wood-fired hot tub is included in the cost of your stay with all wood provided, so you’re all set. It comes with all the easy instructions you need to get it going, and after a couple of hours, it will be bubbling away. While you’re waiting, stroll down to the nearby stream and dip your toes in icy water before heading back and sinking into the steamy tub to warm up. Wooden beams extend out of the tub and surround it, allowing the late afternoon light to filter in between them.
