Mrs '66 wants a long weekend away in December but she's stipulated that the cottage / yurt / whatever it is must meet the following criteria:

Remote location - no neighbours / great views
Small and cosy
Hot tub
Not bothered about UK / Scotland / Wales
Budget up to £600

Anyone got any suggestions ? Google isn't being very helpful....

We've been here before a few times... So we're after a change.

Good plan, only issue would be getting a decent solid hot tub there ... Filling it, and warming it up.

Great suggestion though, one I'd not though of.

Sounds like she's planning on a slow boiling of you in the hot tub, no one will hear you scream... 😉

only to willing to help with the cunning plan....my brother stayed somewhere nice in scotland that has a hot tub in the woods, i'll try and find out where it was.

Have a look on sugarandloaf.com and see what they have. Great properties, mainly in mid Wales and quite a few meet your criteria.

Just buy a Lazy Spa and take it with you.
Bonus is you get to keep it after...

Feels very remote once you are there

Pretty sure that I've seen a lodge with wood fired hot tub at Coed Trallwm in mid Wales.

Ferry runs through the winter, but aye, weather dependent...

That and the fact that it's pretty much booked every night until June next year....

Hot tub solved by just farting in the bath lots?
