Winter is the perfect time to book a hot tub staycation and escape to a cosy log cabin for a relaxing few days. Scotland has no shortage of peaceful and picturesque locations in the countryside, thanks to the beautiful Highlands, the largest region of the country. For this reason, many hot tub getaways are located there to allow guests to truly unwind and enjoy the serene Scottish landscapes.
While summer is always a popular time to get away for a few nights, what better way to embrace the cold weather than to relax in a steaming hot private jacuzzi outside your own private accommodation. Due to the cost of living crisis, it's hard for many people to treat themselves to an overnight or a few days away but thankfully there are some fantastic deals out there.
Woodlands Glencoe
When it comes to beautiful places in Scotland, Glencoe has got to be up there with one of the best. This gorgeous little micro-cabin nestled away in Ballachulish is part of an award-winning romantic collection of unique glamping pods in the Highlands. The wee Riverbed luxury lodges were previously named one of the top 5 romantic getaways in Scotland.
Just seconds away from the breathtaking Glencoe Valley, a night here offers a slice of heaven in the perfect location to relax and recharge. Each pod comes with a private veranda overlooking a stream and a luxurious square hot tub built into the ground. Guests are also treated to hand delivered breakfast each morning in a hamper. If booked through Itison, guests can save up to 59 per cent on an overnight stay at one of the Riverbeds lodges. Their current deal, valid from November until April 2026, offers an overnight stay for two at £96pp.
Stella Airstream
Those looking for something a little more unusual and fancy something different from your typical log cabin, should check out Stella Airstream. This restored vintage Airstream trailer from 1973 has been transformed into a private modern day RV retreat for two. Hidden away in the Highland village of Dull in Perth and Kinross, Stella is situated just outside of Aberfeldy.
Inside, it retains its original charming design and character and stands alone in the countryside within organic gardens surrounded by nature, making for the perfect escape. It also comes with a private hot tub under a roofed wooden patio adorned with golden fairy lights and built in seating benches which provides the perfect chill out zone. Deemed a 'guest favourite' on Airbnb, Stella can be booked for as little as £93pp per night.
NC500 pods
It's well known that Scotland's most iconic road trip is the breathtaking NC500, so what better place to locate a stunning glamping site than on one of the stops along the way? Nestled in a secluded spot in Caithness & Sutherland, the NC500 pods serve as the perfect escape. The location is perfect for road trippers completing the scenic route or for anyone who wants to enjoy a night of bliss in the countryside.
Each pod has an outdoor BBQ area for you to enjoy the natural beauty of the Highlands. This particular getaway is perfect for families or for couples.
