Do not be alarmed if you are asked to sign to the effect that your use of a hot tub is at your own risk. This is common procedure and just an attempt by cottage owners to protect themselves, because guests sometimes do silly things.

Indulging in the soothing warm water of a hot tub is pleasurable for most and is even a sociable activity if it is a large hot tub that can accommodate several people. It is easy to see why people would like to bubble away in an outdoor hot tub, sip wine and chat with friends. Most of us have happily climbed into a hot tub or Jacuzzi at the local swimming pool without a thought about hygiene or safety.

However, we are considering a hot tub that cannot hold more than about 8 people at most and the weather of Avon is not that suitable for lengthy periods in a swim suit indoors or out. The allotted time by hot tub manufacturers for each session is about half an hour. The bubbling and activity is timed for a periodand then it is a quick sprint into your country cottage unless it is the height of summer.

Most of us know not to expect wall to wall sunshine in Avon. It is best to take that umbrella just in case.

A hot tub is a lovely extra to have if you enjoy being pampered and as long as it is under cover, can be enjoyed despite the weather. It might be worth considering the various onsite amenities available with self-catering breaks to make your stay more enjoyable..
