Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Pitcher's Off Grid Barn with Log Burner & Hot Tub
Me and my girlfriend had such an amazing time at this place. We’ve had something similar in the past but this one takes the cake. Very private and has an amazing view. Close to the road so sometimes you’ll hear people walking past and cars. But at night you can sit in the hot tub and enjoy looking at the stars. In our case we saw a shooting star while sat in the hot tub. I would 100% suggest this to friends and come again.!!!! Thank you

Idyllic barn, with hot tub, near the Cotswolds
Had an amazing valentines stay here with my partner. Clare was the perfect host and the barn was the perfect property for our stay. Very quaint, peaceful and secluded. With lovely views over the farmland and a short drive from some beautiful towns

Luxury SC Cottage Lake views 6-8 Guests
Very cosy, stylish and relaxing place to stay - lovely views, great pub 5 mins walk away and lots to do in the local area. Highly recommended!

Beautiful grade 2 listed cottage
Beautiful home and very hospitable hosts!

Jacks Cottage with hot tub & Alpaca Walking
Great cosy stay in a great location. Need to make sure you get the exact location before getting there as there’s no signal, so took us a while to locate the exact door. It does recommend this in the check instructions.

Peaceful cottage in Parwich village with hot tub
Caroline's place was lovely, a peaceful break in the countryside! A reasonable distance from some of the attractions of the Peak District, including the Tissington Trail and Thor's Cave. The village was quaint and we had a lovely meal in the local pub, The Sycamore (recommended by Caroline). The only downside was the typical British summer weather raining down on us - wish us better luck next time!

Lime Tree Cottage new barn convention
Excellent host very responsive and friendly. Beautifully clean property looked just like the photos. Very friendly animals! Would definitely recommend.

Hastings Retreat Parlour barn with private lake

Luxury Peak District Home - 2 miles from Ashbourne
Beautiful cottage set in wonderful grounds with a playhouse for the little ones. The pool was great too. Such a great place to stay, and under 10 minutes from Ashbourne. Around 30 mins to kid friendly hiking/walking in the Dales. Highly recommend.

The Hen House
The cottage is a great place for two. It is on a quiet no through lane with safe parking. The kitchen is well equipped for both longer and short stays with a cooker, microwave, fridge and washing machine and a good assortment of cooking pots and utensils. The bedroom is a reasonable size with plenty of storage. The bed is comfortable and the linen is of a good quality. The bathroom is small but has a good shower, toilet, hand basin and heated towel rail. Note: The stairs are exactly what is expected in a 200yr old cottage.... There is a small front garden with a table and chairs. Good to enjoy a meal if the weather permits. The local Cafe is great for breakfast or a light lunch. It is advisable to book, especially on weekends, as it is both popular and small Highly recommended accommodation in a quintessentially English village.

Peaceful countryside location
Cherry Tree Cottage is perfectly located near the village of Barford, between Stratford and Warwick. This was our third stay here and didn’t let us down. It is always immaculate, sparkling clean and well-appointed. Mark is helpful and friendly. We highly recommend Cherry Tree Cottage.

The Gate House, Wetton. Great base for exploring.
Just got back from a few days at The Gatehouse (or Fred's Shed). It was a wonderful place made so much more so by John and Pam. I arrived and was greeted by John who showed me round, imparted a huge amount of really helpful local knowledge and assured me that help was just a door knock away if needed. Pam had left a mountain of goodies to ensure I didn't go hungry, catering for my four legged friend as well. We were out walking the hills every day and this was a lovely bolthole to return to. being a stone cottage it remains cool even when temperatures outside rocket. John recommended a variety of local walks, pubs, and tea rooms. We tried the one in the village and had a wonderful meal. Sure The Gatehouse is not a mansion, but the use of space is mind-blowing, so there really is everything we needed. The setting is so peaceful and rural, walks straight from the doorstep, it's worth giving the car a break. John was so helpful, friendly and easy going. Would I return... absolutely!

Primrose Hall Holiday Cottage Rutland
Beautiful house in gorgeous village surroundings. Dale and Helen’s place was impeccable and the whole experience was sublime. Communication was superb and no attention to detail was spared. Generous provisions were provided and one felt totally at home. There are not enough superlatives and would totally recommend and go back.

Quaint 2 bed cottage, ideally located for walking
We wanted somewhere to stay to show an old friend the Peak District. A lovely spot hidden away, almost totally silent apart from birdsong. Immaculately clean, well equipped and comfortable. Even friendly neighbours!

Character Grade II listed Cottage
We had an amazing stay here. The location is quiet, with incredible hill views from the bedroom window. Not too far from Derby centre either. Would definitely stay again!!

Jasmine Cottage, High street living at its best.
Jasmine Cottage was a wonderful cosy cottage, with everything we needed for a great short break. Located on the High Street, it was easily accessible and convenient for pubs, restaurants & convenience stores. The welcome pack was very welcome, after a long journey it was great to be able to enjoy a cup of tea! Jan was responsive & friendly with any questions I had before arrival. We always managed to park on the high street and Jan organised a permit for us quickly & easily. We also found convenient, fast & reasonably priced EV charging at The Bulls Head in Wootton Warren, just 4 minutes down the road (there are EV chargers on the high street but places were scarce). We had a great stay in a beautiful cottage in a wonderful part of our country. Thank you Jan.

Beautiful view from cosy cottage with sunny garden
Somehow the little cottage is even better than the pictures! We LOVED our stay and plan on returning. Very quiet, peaceful, and cozy.

Elegant peaceful barn in a rural village setting
This was the first time that we'd used AirBnB and it was a bit of a revelation; the only downside being that Emma has set such a very high bar that we wonder whether everyone else will only prove to be disappointing by comparison! The original structure of Emma's cosy, quirky barn may be over 250 years old but she has clearly put a lot of thought into its renovation and the modern facilities offered. Considering the barn's rural location, it was genuinely a very pleasant surprise that (for a change!) the barn's tech all worked seamlessly, whilst several little personal, luxury touches and a truly warm welcome meant that we instantly felt at ease and relaxed in great comfort. We were desperate for a cosy, easy paced break within easy reach of a good local pub (The Snitterfield Arms) and nearby farm shop. Emma's Barn provided all that and more. It was such a tonic ahead of a second family funeral in 5 weeks, we only wish we could have stayed longer. We very much hope to return!

Quaint Victorian Coach House in village location
The cottage in Great Alne was a wonderful, quaint, cozy stay. I have never been to England and this cottage certainly brought the charm and historic feel I was looking for. James and Emma were fantastic hosts, very friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Would not hesitate to recommend this stay to anyone and I would stay here again in a heart beat.

The Victorian Barn
A lovely peaceful quiet place to stay. The property was well stocked with everything that we needed. Convenient for our planned visit to Armourgeddon. We would definitely like to stay here again.

Romantic and Cosy Beamed Derbyshire Cottage
What a beautiful little cottage. Everything was very clean and tidy. I loved how peaceful it was, waking up to bird song and nothing else was amazing. The garden was also a great place to relax

Canbyfield Cottage countryside retreat for two
My husband and I had a wonder stay at Elizabeth's. The accomodation was exceptionally well equiped with thoughtful inclusions. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. It was very peaceful being away from traffic and people, a perfect place to relax. Elizabeth was extremely helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend and we stay again when next visiting family in the area.

Charming 18th Century Stone Cottage in Derbyshire
We had a lovely stay here. Made a short weekend into a relaxing break. With access to a car, this a great stay for a nice private cottage near all the historic locations of Derbyshire. Gorgeous communal area fit for family board games and wine by the fire. Would recommend.

Dog friendly cottage in Stratford upon Avon
Just home after a perfect 3 night stay with my wife and our border collie. Sad to leave this cute, cozy, comfortable cottage. Perfect location. Easy to walk into Stratford via parks and streets, or go the long way via the racecourse and river. Great Indian food, and also perfect Sunday dinner at the cask and tandoor a short stroll away. Also good food at the bell. Both dog friendly. Cottage is easy to find, great off road parking. Jane is a perfect host and responds quickly to any messages. Hope to stay again in the future.
