Should you provide guests a hot tub?

We, and the latest industry findings, say absolutely.


Research from our UK Glamping Report in collaboration with Crown and Canopy found that adding a hot tub to your accommodation can add an average of £24 to your existing nightly rate.

With only 28% of glampsites offering a hot tub and 53% of potential visitors filtering them as a “must-have” on booking sites, consider upgrading your cosy shepherd’s hut with a wood-fired tub, or turning a luxury stay into a romantic evening with a bubbly spa.

Of course, adding a hot tub or spa to your site is not as much of a necessity as giving your guests a place to sleep!

However, if you’re looking to stand out from the rest by giving potential visitors a luxury experience they (probably) don’t have at home, a hot tub is a great place to start.

Choosing the right hot tub for your glamping site can quickly become overwhelming; to wood fire, or not to wood fire? How much will it cost to run? And how much time will you need to spend on maintenance?

International Glamping Business Editor Annie Hilton has reached out to a number of suppliers, from the UK to the Netherlands, and beyond, to highlight some of the best companies – so you can make an informed decision on who’s right for you and your glamping site.
