From being nestled among rolling hills to staring out at panoramic seaside views to enjoying the beauty of the country’s most desirable national parks, your trip away is about to get a whole lot better.
Whether you’re booking a romantic trip away for two, are hoping to have some fun with friends or seeking a family retreat in the UK, your next getaway will be that much better if your accommodation has a hot tub. It doesn’t matter if you’re seeking a serene countryside retreat or want to enjoy a city break as the options are endless, after all, who wouldn’t want to spend their weekend hot tub breaks sitting back and enjoying a gorgeous view?
If you seek inspiration for your next trip away, read on for three of our favourite places to escape to – beautiful location guaranteed.
New Forest
It’s hard to argue with the raw majesty of ancient nature, and the woodlands of the New Forest have stood largely unchanged since the times of William the Conqueror. Some of the trees you’ll see are hundreds of years old, in all of their gnarled and aged beauty. Spending time amidst the dappled sunlight of the woods and listening to the calls of all the local wildlife is an excellent way to unwind from the worries of daily life. With many wild ponies, donkeys and deer calling the lands of the New Forest home you’ll never be very far away from the joys of nature.
In spite of its name, the New Forest isn’t just about its trees. Spanning over 200 square miles, the area also features heathland and open moors, along with many quaint villages and picturesque towns. Whether you want to get away from the modern world entirely or just enjoy some beautiful natural surroundings, it’s an excellent destination.
Isle of Wight
Located off the southern coast of Hampshire – not too far from the rugged beauty of the New Forest – sits the idyllic island of the Isle of Wight. Separated from the mainland by a relatively narrow stretch of water, The Solent, the isle is another gorgeous holiday destination that doesn’t require a passport to get to.
Almost half of the island is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), which makes the case for its beauty quite clearly. From its sweeping chalk downs to the peaceful woodlands and impressive coastline, the Isle of Wight is practically bursting with glorious landscapes to take in.
Due to the relatively small size of the island, you can easily take day trips out to different areas, no matter where you’re staying. A well-maintained network of cycle tracks and bridlepaths make it easy to enjoy its beautiful sights, and thanks to the milder climate you might find that it’s just as welcoming no matter the time of year.
Scottish Highlands
For those who don’t mind a climate that doesn’t lean quite as mild and warm, the Scottish Highlands are a sight you shouldn’t miss out on. Covering a vast area of the country, the Highlands are a windswept mountainous region unlike anything you’ll see in the rest of the UK.
These rugged, wild lands are home to vistas that conjure up the feel of an almost prehistoric world, where you can find yourself far away from the noise and crowds. Reach fresh heights and enjoy the beautiful sight of the world spread out below you as you make your way up the slopes of the mountains.
And after a long day of hiking you’ll have the perfect excuse for a satisfying dip in the hot tub. In the clear Scottish mountain air you can be treated to the sight of a wide and clear night sky as you sit back, relax and enjoy the soothing bubbles.
Throughout the UK you can find beautiful areas of nature to enjoy and even stay in. So go ahead and treat yourself to a lovely view when you’re booking your next weekend break.
