How to choose
Plan for heating time. From cold, most tubs take two to three hours, longer on a windy day. Ask whether the host lights it before you arrive.
Check the wood supply. Some hosts include a basket of logs and charge for more.
Keep a lid on it. A cover between soaks keeps the heat in and saves you an hour of stoking.
