10 Best Holiday Parks With Hot Tubs 2025

A hot tub adds a bit of extra fun and luxury to a break at a holiday park or caravan park. Hot tubs used to be unusual at family-friendly holiday parks, but you'll now find them at resorts run by Away Resorts, John Fowler, Shorefield and other big name holiday park companies.

Here's our pick of the UK's 10 best caravan holiday parks with hot tubs. We've picked a selection from around the country, so you won't have to endure a colossal car journey with impatient children (and spouses).

As usual, we've included a price comparison for peak season. We looked at the cost of a family holiday for four people in August 2025, including the cheapest accommodation available with a hot tub. 

Here's our top 10:

1. Barmouth Bay Holiday Park, North Wales (beach and mountains, indoor swimming pool)

**Barmouth Bay Discount Code: up to 15% off via this link with code FOMO15 until 07/02/25**
Barmouth Bay Holiday Park in Wales combines a cracking location with better-than-average accommodation. Hot tubs are available with their superior caravans which have two or three bedrooms. They also have some hot tub lodges.

In one direction is a huge stretch of sandy beach. In the other direction is Snowdonia, which is excellent for exploring (or just nice for looking at if you aren't inclined to hike with children).

The resort is run by Away Resorts which is becoming a big name in the holiday park market. They've got about 10 resorts around the UK, but are buying up more sites. 

Barmouth Bay is one of their higher rated holiday parks. Reviewers give it a score of 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor which is very impressive for a relatively large holiday park.

There's an indoor swimming pool, plus a modern adventure playground and a sports court. The main thing lacking at Barmouth Bay Holiday Park is an onsite restaurant. However, The Sands bar is only a few metres outside of the site so it's hardly a big deal.

Price: £1536 for a superior caravan with a hot tub for a family of four in August 2025. That price is for a week's holiday and was based on arriving on a Saturday, which is often more expensive than arriving on a Monday at Barmouth Bay. A Saturday arrival was the only option for this particular week.

2. Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park, Isle of Wight (beachside, indoor and outdoor pools)

**Whitecliff Bay Discount Code: up to 15% off via this link with code FOMO15 until 07/02/25**
Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park is one of the bigger and better holiday parks on the Isle of Wight. In the last few years they've invested a lot in luxury lodges with hot tubs, rather than just offering basic caravans. My hunch is that they've realised that a lot of people want a well-equipped holiday park and are willing to pay for better accommodation.

If you want to keep the price down, go for a caravan with a hot tub or chalet with a hot tub. If you can afford it, you can get posher accommodation with hot tubs which sleep up to eight. The luxury lodges with hot tubs are a more spacious version of a caravan whilst The TriBeCa and The Rockstar have funkier décor.

The highlight of Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park is its position next to a fantastic sandy beach. The bay is only really used by two different holiday parks and it's hard to access if you aren't staying onsite. As a result, it's not very busy compared to similarly attractive beaches.

There are two swimming pools at Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park - one indoor and one outdoor. There's also a sauna, playground, soft play, crazy golf, evening entertainment and outdoor cinema in the summer. 

Another plus point with Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park is that they get a special price for the Isle of Wight ferry. Sometimes they can it for about half the price that you'd pay by going direct to the ferry companies.

Customer reviews for Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park average 4/5 on TripAdvisor.


Price: £2097 for a week in a 'Superior Chalet' with a hot tub at Whitecliff Bay Holiday Park in August 2025. That price is for a family of four in a two bedroom chalet.

3. Sandy Meadows Lodge Park, Somerset (swimming pool, 10 minutes from the beach)

**Sandy Meadows Offers:  save up to 30% on last minute deals + use code WEB10 via this link to save £10 (expires 31/01/25)**
Sandy Meadows Lodge Park is an excellent shout for a hot tub holiday in Somerset. Look for the 'Platinum Hot Tub Lodge' when you search for holidays. 

The park is right next door to Sandy Glade Holiday Park, which is owned by the same company. The idea is that you stay at Sandy Meadows but use the much bigger range of facilities at Sandy Glade. That includes a sauna, indoor swimming pool, takeaway, clubhouse, kids' clubs and table tennis.

Sandy Meadows scores very well with reviewers. We compared all the parks owned by John Fowler Holidays and found Sandy Meadows was right at the top on customer ratings.

It's about half a mile from the park to the nearest beach, which will take you about 10 minutes on foot. Burnham on Sea and Weston Super Mare are both close enough for a day out.

Somerset doesn't quite have the same trendy appeal as Devon or Cornwall but it's a lovely county (in my opinion). It's also considerably easier to reach from the Midlands. For example, Birmingham to Sandy Meadows Lodge Park is only two hours' drive whereas Birmingham to St Ives in Cornwall is 4 hours 30 minutes.


Price: £1956 for a week in early August 2025 for a family of four. That was a three bedroom Gold lodge, but they also have two bedroom models.

4. Shorefield Country Park, New Forest (swimming pools, restaurant)

There are a couple of holiday parks within the New Forest that offer hot tub holidays. 

Shorefield Country Park is our pick, but I would also take a look at Sandy Balls Holiday Village, which has hot tub lodges and is another popular resort.

Shorefield Country Park has got something to keep most families happy. There are indoor and outdoor swimming pools, fishing, play areas, tennis and a bar/restaurant called Tides.

Milford on Sea is the nearest beach. It's about a mile away, so it will take about 20 minutes to walk there. I'd say the distance from the coast is the main downside with the resort. However, you can get to Peppa Pig World/Paultons Park within 40 minutes.

Shorefield Country Park scores a solid 4/5 on TripAdvisor or 4.4/5 on Google Reviews. 


Price: £2111 for a 'Sublime Caravan' (2 bedrooms) at Shorefield Country Park for a week in August 2025.

5. Oakdene Forest Park, Dorset (woodland, swimming pools)

Oakdene Forest Park is a good choice if you want a holiday park with hot tubs in a woodland setting, rather than easy beach access. You can reach the sandy beaches around Bournemouth in half an hour in the car, but it's not as convenient as some.

You can choose from a caravan with hot tub, a lodge with a hot tub or a treehouse with a hot tub at Oakdene. The two-bed caravans were about a quarter of the the price of the three-bed treehouses when we checked.

There are woodland walks at Oakdene Forest Park, as well as two swimming pools onsite. The indoor pool has a flume to keep children (and dads) entertained. Other facilities include a gym, archery, playgrounds and entertainment in the evenings.

Reviews for Oakdene Forest Park are 4/5 on TripAdvisor or 4.4/5 on Google Reviews. 


Price: £1701 for a 'Sublime Caravan' with hot tub. That's the price for a week in early August 2025 for a family of four.  It's a 13 foot wide caravan, which is larger and more spacious than average. For comparison, Haven's cheapest caravans are 10 foot wide and their most expensive models are 14 foot wide.

6. Tattershall Lakes Holiday Park, Lincolnshire (watersports, lakeside accommodation)

**Tattershall Lakes Discount Code: up to 15% off via this link with code FOMO15 until 07/02/25**
Tattershall Lakes Holiday Park is an unusual resort, as it's got a big focus on watersports. The accommodation is based around a series of lakes where you can do things like paddleboarding, pedalos, water skiing and kayaking. There's also a large inflatable water park where you can climb on top of things and leap into the water. 

In 2020, they added a 'lido' which is a large outdoor swimming pool where you can lounge around and enjoy the, er, Lincolnshire sunshine.

​The hot tubs are available with most grades of accommodation. The cheaper options are caravans with hot tubs but there are also lakeside lodges with hot tubs and funkier lodges with quirky designs (Rockstar, TriBeCa).

Customer reviews of Tattershall Lakes average 3.5/5 on TripAdvisor or 4.3/5 on Google Review. I'm not completely sure why there's such a difference between scores, although TripAdvisor only scores in halves so it may be close to 4/5. We've written a full guide to Tattershall Lakes.

Price: £1311 for a Superior Caravan with a hot tub for a week in August 2025. That's the price for a family of four, although you can fit eight people in that model of caravan. If you don't mind living on top of each other for a week then that's a good price of £23 per person, per night.

7. Retallack Resort and Spa, Cornwall (aqua park, swimming pool, lodges)

**Retallack Resort Discount Code: up to 15% off via this link with code FOMO15 until 07/02/25**
Retallack Resort and Spa isn't right by the beach but it makes up for it with an onsite aqua park, surf simulator, wakeboarding lessons and classy wooden lodges with hot tubs. Several of the lodges overlook the lakes. Most sleep four or six but they have some which sleep eight or twelve people and are designed for big family holidays.

The resort also has its own indoor swimming pool, a gym and spa treatments.  You can eat out at a bar and restaurant called The Lookout or at the café which sits alongside the aqua park. You pay extra for most of the activities.

The excellent Porth Beach is 20 minutes' away in the car whilst Padstow and Newquay are 15-20 minutes' away. The Eden Project can be reached in about 25 minutes.

Customers award Retallack Resort and Spa with an average review score of 4/5. It is now run by Away Resorts, which has about 20 holiday parks around the UK.

Price: £3132 for a week's holiday in a lodge with a hot tub for a family of four in early August 2025.

8. Haven Perran Sands Holiday Park, Cornwall (beachside, swimming pools, activities)

**Haven's 2025 Offers: Easter from £65 + Summer from £215**
Haven doesn't usually do accommodation with hot tubs at its caravan holiday parks. The exception is the Beach Houses at Perran Sands Holiday Park in Cornwall.

These really are rather lovely, with sea views, plenty of space inside and dining space outside. The downside is that they are very expensive in peak season and there aren't many of them.

The Perran Sands resort is one of Haven's most popular and it has easy access to a nice beach. If you feel inclined, you can sign up for surfing and paddleboard lessons. 

Back on the main site, there's a choice of indoor and outdoor swimming pools, sports court, mini golf, playgrounds and restaurants/takeaways. Haven holidays also provide come with evening entertainment and other activities you can pay extra for, such as segways and archery.


Price: £6700 for a Beach House with a hot tub for a family of four in August 2024 (sleeps six). Prices for August 2025 weren’t available when we searched but it was available at the end of August for £4999. In other words, it's still very expensive!

If you want to save a bit of money and don't want to use the facilities, you can just go for a Haven Hideaway holiday. That entitles you to use the restaurants, but you can't use the swimming pools or other facilities.

9. South Lakeland Leisure Village, Yorkshire (swimming pool, fishing)

**Winner - cheapest holiday park with hot tub in our top 10**

Hot tubs are available with several of the gold and platinum lodges at South Lakeland Leisure Village. Some of the accommodation overlooks the lakes, which adds to the appeal. 

It is certainly one of the best value options for those looking for a holiday park with hot tub included.

The resort is in Yorkshire but its location is also good for exploring the Lake District or Lancashire. You can reach Windermere in 25 minutes in the car, or Morecambe Bay in just 15 minutes. It's close to the M6 which helps with travel times, but does mean it isn't entirely silent.

South Lakeland Leisure Village has a rather nice swimming pool and gym but you have to pay for a leisure pass to use them. You can expect to pay about £120 for a family of four for a week. There are also spa treatments which you pay extra for.

If you go for the cheaper lodges then you won't get the passes included, but you can pay extra for them. 

Another plus point with South Lakeland Leisure Village is that it has fishing lodges with hot tubs. That may be the clincher for some members of your party...

There are two other resorts run by the same company which are on the same site. They are called The Yealands and Borwick Lakes. The Yealands is a collection of lodges whilst Borwick Lakes is more convenient for fishing.

Price: £1378  for a 'Silver' Two Bedroom Lodge with Hot Tub in August 2025. As mentioned earlier, you payt £116 extra to be able to use the swimming pool and gym for that week. That takes the total to £1494, which is the figure we will include in our comparison.

10. Forest Holidays Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire (woodland, cycling, high ropes)

The Forest Holidays resort at Sherwood Forest is a bit different to the other hot tub holidays in our top 10. It doesn't have the facilities of a family-friendly holiday park but we've included it because there are good facilities nearby. I would say it's a good choice for those who want luxury lodges with hot tubs rather than simpler accommodation.

The log cabins with hot tubs are right within the woodland and have something of a Center Parcs vibe to them.


You don't get access to a swimming pool or a clubhouse. However, it's based alongside Sherwood Pines Country Park which has excellent cycle routes and a Go Ape course. That means that older children will be able to do things like high ropes and zip wires.

There's also archery and forest ranger activities such as shelter building.

There are similar Forest Holidays resorts around the UK, including those in Hampshire, Yorkshire, Cornwall, Cheshire, Gloucestershire, Norfolk, Scotland and Wales.


​Price: £2150 for one of their two bedroom 'Silver Birch' forest lodges with hot tubs. That's the price for a family of four for a week in August 2025. ​

Price comparison of the UK's best holiday parks with hot tubs

Our price comparison is not exactly watertight, as you are getting quite different things for your money. 

​However, we wanted to know how much a family of four would pay for a week in peak season. In August, you are unlikely to get cheap log cabins with hot tubs or cheap caravans with hot tubs, but there's still a big range in prices. You will certainly pay much less outside of school holidays. 

We just looked for the cheapest accommodation available, which was usually a caravan or a lodge. We've ranked them from cheapest to most expensive and didn't include things like upgrades or travel costs. We checked prices in October 2024. You'll find that prices creep up nearer to August 2025, as the cheaper lodges and caravans with hot tubs get booked up.
