Soak Up Nature With Outdoor Baths
Why do we love outdoor showers so much? Is it the little exhibitionist
in us all that gets a thrill out of being naked outside? Is it the warm
(or cold) air on our skin? Is it the romance? Whatever it is, the
outdoor shower has become an icon of the good life. Taking a shower in
the great outdoors is sort of like being on permanent vacation.
And then there's the outdoor bathtub, which is just straight-up sexy. Luxuriating in a tub of warm water under the stars? The best. To my mind it's even better than the standard hot tub — no chlorine, and you can use shampoo.
Here are 14 examples of the bathing good life.
A bath with a view. It's also covered — imagine yourself immersed in hot water on a cold and rainy night, the branches dripping all around you.
A shower and bath combo in its own little (well, not so little actually) outdoor room, complete with windows, tile and a ceiling of tree branches.
Outstanding in its field! I'd float some of that rosemary in the water for nature's own aromatherapy. Oh, also, there seems to be a dragon in the tub. Hope you don't mind.
The best of both worlds: the indoor-outdoor tub. A view, fresh air, a little sunshine. Or you can close the doors and still see the expanse of nature all around you.
Another indoor-outdoor example, this time with a gorgeous copper tub on a bed of river stones.
