Glamping with hot tubs in Dorset

There’s a rose-tinted, bunting-clad magic in the air in Dorset. It’s a seductive combination of stunning sandy beaches, Jurassic fossils, delicious food and quirky events that range from the bizarre (The World Nettle Eating Competition) and the unusual (Bridport’s Hat Festival) to the downright epic (Camp Bestival). There’s no better way to enjoy this feel-good county than in a glamping place with a hot tub, where you can round off each fantastic day with a long soak under the stars. People even live longer in Dorset, perhaps because there’s so much fun to be had…

What’s it like to stay at a glamping place with a hot tub?

Forget waking up and checking your phone. Instead, have a lie in, then yawn, stretch, pad out onto the deck and slip into the hot tub in the dewy morning air, assuming you convinced someone who really loves you to get up even earlier and heat it. Whatever the day’s outdoor adventures bring, the tub will be waiting to welcome you back when you return armed with a bottle of fizz and an appetite for stargazing.

About Canopy & Stars’ expertise

Canopy & Stars are leading the way in unique, outdoor holidays. We’re a small, independent travel company who have been exploring coast and countryside since 2010. Why, we hear you ask? To bring you incredible glamping places where you can experience a life more wild. We’re a picky bunch, and 80% of applications we receive from new places don’t make the cut, so you can be sure that those who do get into our collection have something different and brilliant to offer.

What makes Dorset so special?

A typical day in Dorset might involve fossil hunting on the beach at Lyme Regis followed by an invigorating walk along the South West Coastal Path, perhaps an ice cream at West Bay, a visit to Abbotsbury subtropical garden and then a bite to eat in Weymouth Harbour. Even with a jam-packed itinerary, you’ll barely scratch the surface in this glorious part of the world. Foodies, history buffs, adrenaline junkies, walkers and beach lovers alike are all in for a treat. If you studied geology (and can remember any of it), you’ll feel a nostalgic thrill of excitement when you clap eyes on iconic landforms like Old Harry Rocks and Durdle Door.
