Easter 2026 Escapes From £199

Hidden Firs near Oswestry in Shropshire is one of those places that earns its name - a collection of quirky micro-lodges tucked into mature trees, rated 4.8 out of 5 by guests. It's promoted specifically as a romantic escape, with private hot tubs available and a setting that lends itself to exactly the kind of break that's hard to find: genuinely secluded, genuinely characterful. The countryside around Oswestry rolls into the Welsh Marches, giving easy access to the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - all quiet lanes, market towns, and ancient ridgelines. Three-night stays are available from £509 for the lodge. For couples looking for something that feels different from a standard hotel weekend, this is a well-regarded option with a strong track record.

For those who prefer to book on instinct rather than months in advance, there's a solid selection of lodges available on a last-minute basis across the UK - many with private hot tubs included. Among the current listings, Paradise Lakeside Lodges near York offers 7-night stays from £444, down from £619. Willow Pastures Country Park in East Yorkshire has 7 nights from £949, reduced from £1,205. Love2Stay Mid Wales in Powys - a highly-rated resort with hot tubs, a swimming pool, and a spa - lists 7 nights from £909, down from £1,179. Maesmawr Farm Resort in the Welsh hills has 7 nights from £1,019, was £1,270. These are genuinely reduced rates on lodges that would otherwise command full-season prices, available for bookings departing within the coming weeks.

Pool days, evening hot tubs and the kind of quiet that only comes from a well-appointed lodge - the luxury collection offers this at prices starting from £19 per person, per night. These are handpicked lodges from the premium tier, pre-filtered for 3-night stays from December 2026 with up to 4 adults and 2 children. It's the sort of break that feels considerably more expensive than it is. The accommodation sits within the luxury collection, so standards are consistently high - think proper fixtures, private outdoor space and settings worth the journey.

A dedicated collection of weekend breaks makes it easy to find a 2 or 3-night stay at holiday parks and lodges across the UK without sifting through full-week inventory. Settings range from woodland lodges to coastal caravan parks - the kind of places where Friday evening feels genuinely different by Saturday morning. With flexible date searching and a price range that starts at accessible levels, a weekend away requires less planning than most people assume. The collection spans England, Scotland and Wales, covering everything from quiet countryside retreats to parks with pools and evening entertainment.

Glamping occupies a useful middle ground - closer to the countryside than a lodge resort, but with considerably more comfort than a tent. The glamping collection covers a range of structures and settings across the UK, from shepherd's huts and pods to more elaborate outdoor accommodations. For those who want the experience of sleeping under canvas without forgoing a decent bed or a morning coffee made in something resembling a kitchen, it's a practical and often scenic choice. Properties vary widely, so the collection rewards a browse rather than a quick filter search.

A well-organised collection of dog-friendly holiday parks and lodges means there is no need to leave anyone behind. Properties across England, Scotland and Wales welcome dogs, with a dedicated search filter making it straightforward to find accommodation that suits both the two-legged and four-legged members of the party. From lodges with private gardens to holiday parks near coastal walks, the selection spans a good range of settings. Every property is quality-checked before listing, so the 'dog-friendly' designation reflects actual facilities and policies rather than a blanket marketing term.
