EXCLUSIVE: BUCKING THE TREND

OUTDOOR LIVING IS KEEPING ITS distribution warehouses well-stocked to support its UK showroom expansion plans.

On the brink of a significant investment into the hot tub and wellness markets, award-winning Outdoor Living has confirmed plans to open at least three new showrooms in the UK. Outdoor Living is unveiling a showroom at Houghton Hall Garden Centre, Carlisle, the largest destination garden centre in the North West.

With showrooms already established in Hull and Leeds, this third showroom is a result of the company’s continued growth and expansion. Plans are already in place to open another two showrooms by next spring.

Now part of the huge Buy It Direct Group, Outdoor Living specialises in high-quality hot tubs, swim spas, saunas and steam rooms, ice baths and pergolas, with everything you need to create the perfect outdoor space.

As well as being proud partners of Jacuzzi® and official stockists of high-end brands including Tylö, Hekla, and PortaSauna, Outdoor Living has designed an exclusive range of own-brand hot tubs and swim spas, offering great quality and exceptional value to their customers.

Commenting on the move, Outdoor Living’s Paul Margerison, MD, said: “We’re looking forward to bringing our expertise, knowledge, and passion for living outdoors to new areas. “We’re continuing our long-term investment in the North West and we’re especially pleased that we’ve been able to create new jobs here.”

The innovative company is already familiar with the North West after establishing commercial partnerships with Hidden River Cabins and Ullswater Heights leisure resorts, who make full use of the product, service and support packages that Outdoor Living provides.

Outdoor Living also offers a complete service of delivery, installation and expert aftercare to customers nationwide, even if their hot tub was originally purchased elsewhere. The new showroom at Houghton Hall is set to open at the end of March.

Those visiting during April can enjoy promotional prices across the full range of hot tubs, and an introductory offer of 10% off selected chemicals and accessories. Meanwhile, Hull FC Rugby League Club has named Outdoor Living as their Official Wellness, Wellbeing and Recovery Partner for 2025.

The partnership has seen brand new ice baths recently installed at both the MKM Stadium in the changing rooms and the University of Hull Rugby League Performance, Education & Community Hub to aid the players’ recovery on both game days and at their training base.

With over 25 years’ experience in the industry, Outdoor Living provide premier service and spas to Yorkshire, the North East and beyond – their range of products includes gazebos, ice baths, swim spas, saunas, showers, and more.

Paul Margerison says: “We have a three-year agreement in place with the club which is really exciting for us – we are also providing infrared saunas and other new innovative products and equipment that will help the teams’ performance and recovery, both on and off the field.”
