[…] a strange thing to seek out I know but for anyone that truly knows us, they will know that unusual glamping sites have become a bit of an obsession for us. When we booked though we had expected to be […]

In reply to Constance – Foreign Sanctuary.

Constance, we are often found on similar campsites to yourself and quite like the idea of sleeping under canvas with just our roll mats and basic cooking equipment for company. Like yourselves, on most occasions, apart from one camping trip to the Sahara Desert, running water and showers are only a stones throw away but we have also come to love a but of luxury now and again and see glamping as the perfect fit for us! 🙂

You gotta love glamping – it brings camping to a whole new level!! We usually just camp in a tent but we do have an air mattress and we usually camp in campsites with running water and showers included in the price!!

You should definitely try glamping – it offers all of the luxury and mod-cons we have come to expect in a hotel but with a twist. There are some truly luxurious places out there just waiting for people to explore them! 😀

I am sure they would love them, having a unique place to stay and the freedom to run around and enjoy their outdoor environment – that’s why I loved camping as a kid, today you just have a few more options available. I think treehouses would be at the top of my list if I was 10 again! 😀

In reply to Curtis Mekemson.

I really like the look of the railway cars – we are currently thinking about staying a couple of nights in one when we go to New Zealand – some have been restored extremely well. Perhaps I need to consider another post with other options that I have missed (I am sure there are many more). During my searching in the last couple of days I have also found a replica Hobbit home, A Boot (Just like the nursery rhyme) and an old-style western wagon. So much to choose from! 🙂

In reply to Shikha (whywasteannualleave).

We stayed in a Safari Tent earlier this year in France and having luxury for just a few days at the end of our camping trip was brilliant. Four poster bed, wine chiller and really comfy sun loungers were all included – I would recommend it to anyone! There are several glamping sites on the South Coast of the UK that have some really lovely looking yurts and shepherds Huts that we hope to try out next.

We have been looking at the Finland Igloos for a couple of years now as I love the idea of being able to look up at the stars from my bed. Gypsy caravans are sprouting up all over now and have become really popular on camping sites so they are so accessible now.

Hello there. What an interesting post! I am not in the slightest bit adventurous and camping would definitely not be on my list of things to do, but glamping on the other hand seems like it could be a lot of fun, even for this high maintenance Goddess! Hmmm…perhaps I’ll consider it when I’m at one with nature! Thanks for sharing. Congratulations too on completing the A-Z Challenge. Stopping by from the Road Trip.

We haven’t been, but I think it’s gypsy caravan or treehouse for us! I really fancy them both and reckon the children would too…
