We have now added an outside electric socket in the garden of The Chapel, so that guests can hire a hot tub to make their stay even more memorable.  We suggest Goodwins in Margate is a great place to hire out the hot tub.  Currently the price for up to 1 weeks hire is £270 which includes warm water.  When ordering the warm water we don't charge for keeping it nice and warm, we only charge if we need to provide the water and warm it up.
