Hot Tub Holidays in Windermere

More around Windermere

What's on offer around Windermere

There are nine stays with a hot tub published on BritStays in the Windermere area, so you're choosing from a small, varied group. Five are hotels, two are caravanning holiday parks, one is a cottage and one is a campsite. Every one of them has WiFi, eight are listed as pet friendly and eight have a bar. Seven have a restaurant, so on most of these stays you won't have to go out for dinner after a soak.

Four of the nine are in Windermere itself and two are in Bowness-on-Windermere. The rest are spread out, with one each in Newby Bridge and Crosthwaite and one listed under Windermere and Troutbeck Bridge, North West England.

Which areas suit which kind of trip

This is lake country rather than coast. If you want to be close to Lake Windermere, the stays in Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere are the obvious starting point. If you'd prefer a base outside those two, Damson Dene Hotel in Crosthwaite and Newby Bridge Hotel in Newby Bridge are your options from this set.

Couples looking for a hotel-style break have several choices. The Ro in Bowness-on-Windermere lists a swimming pool, hot tub and spa. Damson Dene Hotel and Newby Bridge Hotel both pair a hot tub with a swimming pool and gym. Cranleigh Boutique Hotel, also in Bowness-on-Windermere, has evening entertainment and a bar, and Applegarth Villa in Windermere has a bar and restaurant.

Families may find the holiday parks the easier fit. White Cross Bay Holiday Park in Windermere lists evening entertainment and a bar. Limefitt Holiday Park, also in Windermere, has a bar and restaurant. Moss Howe Farm campsite offers a hot tub alongside a bar and takeaway food, which helps on nights when nobody wants to cook.

Larger groups have one clear option. Boston House sleeps 14 and lists a hot tub, WiFi and pet-friendly status. It's the only stay here with a published sleeps figure, so it suits a family get-together or a group of friends.

Dog owners are well served, with eight of the nine stays listed as pet friendly. Policies vary, so check the details for the specific stay before you book.

Questions to ask before you book

The facility list tells you a hot tub is available, not how it works. It's worth confirming a few things directly:

Is the hot tub private to your room, lodge or pitch, or shared with other guests?
Are there set times or a booking system for using it?
Is parking included? Only four of the nine list parking.
Do you need step-free access? Five of the nine list disabled access, so check what that covers.
Are you arriving by train? Four are listed as near a train station.

What to do once you're there

Lake Windermere is the centrepiece, and The Lakes Aqua Park gives you a lively day out on the water if you have energetic children or teenagers with you.

For a gentler day, the National Trust has several properties nearby. Hill Top, Townend, High Lickbarrow and Fell Foot are all listed, and Graythwaite Hall is a stately home worth adding if you like historic houses and grounds.

On a wet day, the Heritage Centre in Kendal and Eskdale Mill in the Lake District are both museum options. Keswick Museum & Art Gallery is another if you're happy to travel a bit further for an indoor afternoon. Then head back for an evening in the hot tub, which is one of the better ways to recover from a day out in Lakeland weather.

When to book

With only nine hot tub stays here, choice is limited from the start. If you have a particular stay in mind, booking early gives you the best chance of getting it. This matters most for Boston House if you're a big group, because nothing else in this set lists a comparable capacity.

School holidays and bank holiday weekends are usually the busiest times in the Lakes, so plan further ahead for those dates. If your dates are flexible, a midweek stay is often easier to secure. Before you pay, confirm the hot tub arrangements, dog rules and parking in writing so there are no surprises when you arrive.
