Family Lodges with Hot Tubs

Family Lodges with Hot Tubs
Family lodges with hot tubs are becoming one of the most popular breaks for families looking for UK holidays. Combining comfort, outdoor space, and that added touch of luxury, hot tub family lodges offer a memorable mix of relaxation and together time. Even in winter, nothing beats stepping out onto a private veranda and sinking into warm bubbling water.
Family Lodges with Hot Tubs: What to Look For
When booking a family lodge with a hot tub, there are a few key things to keep in mind:
Child‑friendly facilities: Make sure there are gated decks or secure balconies to prevent accidental falls, also check travel‑cot and highchair availability. Some parks may have guidelines for the age that children can use the hot tub, check the information for the park before booking.
Location: Haven and Parkdean have locations all around the UK. Think about whether you want to be in a rural or coastal location, more remote or close to local towns and attractions.
Pet‑friendly options: If you plan to bring a dog, check that the lodge and holiday park allow pets and if there is any additional charge.
On‑site amenities: Park facitlities vary so look for playgrounds, swimming pools, bike hire, kids’ clubs, or other facilities. Some activities require pre – booking and can fill up fast, check where and how to book once you have your confirmation.
Safety and cleanliness: Confirm that the hot tub is maintained between guests.

Family Lodges with Hot Tubs: Tips
When is best to go: Off‑peak seasons such as spring and autumn. Cheaper stays + quieter parks = more relaxation.
How to find the best deals: Check Parkdean’s or Haven’s websites for offers. You’ll likely find the best prices outside of the school holidays but last minute long weekends can provide great value if you’re tied to term time.
What to pack: Swimwear, flip‑flops, robe & towels. For more general tips about what to pack for a lodge stay, check out our packing guide blog here.
Hot tub safety: Make sure to supervise children using the hot tub at all times, take regular breaks and keep hydrated.
Family Lodges with Hot Tubs – Overall
A family lodge with a hot tub is a wonderful way to combine adventure and relaxation. Book early for the best choice.

Disclaimer: I have learnt running 21km is no joke, I would not recommend anyone be this delusional ✌🏻
I know a lot of the running community don’t like this sort of thing; beginners entering races they have no business entering. And I get it. For me, signing up was complete ignorance during a very difficult time. I wanted to raise money for the hospice that was caring for my mum, and the London marathon was happening at the time - I told my mum I’d run the London marathon next year - which is ridiculous as I’ve never ran in my life (I actually got a place on the Pancreatic cancer UK team 🙏🏻). My brother suggested signing up for this half marathon to help me prepare - so I did. And through grief and life, training started a little later than planned… but here we are. It would have been easy to drop out, say I’ll do it another time, but I’m not in it for the glory. I’m there to try my best, and raise money for an amazing charity. We have raised £11k so far; which is absolutely insane. If I get scooped up, I get scooped up. I want to see how far I can get before I do - and I’ll be a lot more prepared for London next year.
If you’d like to support my run by donating to an incredible hospice, I have the link in my linktree ❤️ (it’s linked in my bio or you can google the travel mum linktree)

If you have a young girl, chances are she’s getting a Disney doll for Xmas from me 😂✌🏻
My son will absolutely LOVE this
We already have 50,000 of these, but my friends son doesn’t, and I know he will love them.
We have a lot of this marble run track, but we don’t have one that sticks to a window and automatically takes the ball up and round. Absolute easy win for my kids.
I looked at the rules, it sounds like it will be a fun travel game now Leo is old enough to get involved in card games!

Today it became really apparent that I can’t be everything… we built a business so our kids could have a comfortable future, we wanted to have freedom to do lots of things together - yet I spend 90% off the time pushing them away while I fail to get everything done. This hand holding back and forth went on for a bit before I realised it’s the perfect metaphor - he just wants me now, while I’m busy worrying about the future.
Not sure what the solution is, but solidarity to anyone else failing the balance 😅 if you’ve worked it out, do share 😄💛
