Glamping with hot tubs in the Lake District
Mountain walks feel even better when you know there's a steaming hot tub waiting at the end of them. Our collection of glamping stays with hot tubs in the Lake District include cabins, treehouses, yurts and other unusual places to stay, each with a hot tub and a front-row seat to some of Britain's most spectacular landscapes.
Spend your days scrambling fells, swimming in mountain tarns or exploring lakeside villages, then sink into warm water beneath dark skies while the hills slowly disappear into evening.
Why choose a hot tub stay in the Lake District?
Every walk ends better. Whether you've climbed Helvellyn, wandered around Windermere or spent the day discovering tarns, nothing beats sinking into warm water while the hills turn gold around you.
The hot tub becomes part of the adventure. Many of our stays feature wood-fired tubs that ask you to slow down. Lighting the fire, stacking the logs and waiting for the water to warm becomes part of settling into the landscape.
Nature doesn’t stop after sunset. The Lake District is one of the UK's darkest places after nightfall. Watch stars appear above the fells while staying toasty warm in the tub, listen for owls across the valley and stay outside long after everyone else has gone in.
Types of hot tub stays in the Lake District
We inspect every place in our collection
We've been inspecting unique places to stay in nature since 2010, which means we've spent an entirely reasonable amount of time sitting in hot tubs in the name of work.
Of course, we're also checking that they heat properly, feel private and have a view worthy of lingering in until your fingers resemble raisins. We stay the night too, making sure the bed is as comfortable as promised and the whole experience feels every bit as memorable in real life as it does in the photos. If it doesn't give us that feeling, it doesn't make it into the collection. That way, when you book with Canopy & Stars, you know we've already done the hard part.

Glamping with hot tubs in the Lakes FAQ
Are your Lake District hot tub stays suitable for couples?
Many are. From secluded cabins hidden in the trees to peaceful countryside retreats, our collection includes romantic escapes where you can spend the day exploring the fells before soaking beneath the stars in your own private hot tub.
What makes Canopy & Stars' Lake District hot tub stays different?
We don't try to list every glamping stay in the Lake District. Instead, we personally inspect every place we feature, choosing independently run stays with character, thoughtful design and a genuine connection to the landscape.
Do your Lake District stays have wood-fired hot tubs?
Yes, most of the hot tubs in our Lake District collection are wood-fired. Wood-fired hot tubs bring an extra sense of occasion to your stay, turning the ritual of lighting the fire and waiting for the water to heat into part of the experience.
Can I book glamping with a fire pit and hot tub in the Lake District?
Many of our Lake District stays combine private hot tubs with outdoor fire pits or BBQ areas, making it easy to spend the whole evening outside. Whether you're toasting marshmallows after dinner or watching the stars from warm water, these are stays designed to help you make the most of time spent outdoors.
Do you offer luxury glamping with hot tubs in the Lake District?
Yes. Our luxury glamping stays are about far more than stylish interiors. You might find a wood-fired sauna beside your hot tub, breakfast hampers filled with local produce, champagne waiting for your arrival or a secluded riverside spot reserved just for you. Every stay is personally inspected and chosen for the quality of the experience, not just the thread count.
