What is Glamping in the UK and why is it so popular?
Shorthand for ‘glamorous camping’, glamping allows you to keep some of your creature comforts while you are out in nature. Glamping is a new way of enjoying the outdoors and can be described as a combination of camping and luxury accommodation.
Glamping is a trend that caught on in the United States, before making its way to the UK and becoming a huge hit over here for those seeking an outdoor adventure with the luxuries of home.
Enjoy the best of both worlds by staying in a furnished pod whilst enjoying a touch of luxury. If you’re looking for an adventure on your next holiday but don’t want to give up all your creature comforts, then glamping is for you!
Glamping Trips in the UK
Across the UK, glamping sites often include electricity, central heating, double glazing and kitchen facilities with a fridge, microwave and hot water.
Our pod collection features are as follows:
Standard
As an alternative to traditional camping, standard pods provide a cosy choice for a family escape. Featuring a double bed base, foldaway table and chairs, electricity and a panel heater, standard pods require you to bring everything needed for a camping stay, minus the tent of course! Bring along your furry friends with our pet friendly options at Silverdale and Ribble Valley.
Luxury
Our luxury pods are perfect for couples and young families, providing you with increased amenities such as a shower room and kitchenette. In the summer, the brick built BBQ allows outdoor dining complete with table and set of chairs. In the evening you can retreat to the double bed, complete with duvets, pillows and bed linen. Central heating & double glazing ensure you’ll keep toasty and warm.
Luxury with Bunk Beds
If you are looking for a family countryside escape, our brand-new luxury pods with bunk beds are an exceptional option. Enjoy the same features as our Luxury Pods, with the added bonus of bunk beds for the children! Want to bring your four-legged friend? Enjoy our pet friendly option exclusively at Bay View!
Family Fun
Our family fun pod, exclusively at Silverdale, allows up to 6 people to stay featuring a fully equipped kitchen and shower room. The double sofa bed, and fold out double bed means you have the space for easy sleeping arrangements. Enjoy additional sleeping space with the mezzanine level, alongside an outdoor table and chairs on the veranda in a private area of the park.
Ultimately, glamping is a great way to holiday if you are seeking more comfort and relaxation with the charm of a traditional camping trip!
