Glamping - Luxury Camping

Glamping, which is short hand for Glamorous Camping or Luxury camping, gives you all the amenities that you will not normally get when you go camping.

Imagine if you had to go for days without a shower; had to drink lukewarm beverages, or going to the toilet behind a tree. Doesn't sound like much fun does it! When you go Glamping you do away with all those hassles and replace them with comfort and convenience.

But at the same time you still are able to enjoy that great, rustic feel of being in the great outdoors. No more canned baked beans but enjoy instead chef-prepared meals. Replace sleeping bags with luxurious tent accommodation which comes complete with fine linens.

Enjoying the great outdoors without the discomfort and inconvenience in luxury camping is sure to make a happy camper out of anyone.

If you are going to go Glamping then you want to make it a special holiday don't you?

There are an increasing number of places around the globe where you can enjoy luxury camping. Let's take a look at some places that you might want to consider:

Eco Retreats, Powys in Wales. This is situared on more than a thousand acres of rolling acres in the the midst of the Dyfi Forest. You will find it located at the end of a track and the luxury camping grounds aim to let you reconnect with the rhythms of the environment.

Amongst the things you can enjoy here are five tipis and one yurt which are surrounded by oak woods and meadows. They provide evening meditation sessions as well as access to the Centre for Alternative Technology nearby.

Eco Luxury Yurt Suite, Lanzarote in Spain.  This is part of a nine-unit eco property group. The eco luxury suite is located 30 kilometers away from Arrecife. If you decide to stay here, you will be sleeping in king-sized beds and lounging on Polynesian-styled daybeds. That is when when you're not soaking up the sun on the nearby sandy beach. They also provide plunge and solar-heated swimming pools which are great ways to relax.

Canna camping Holidays, Inner Hebrides in Scotland. If getting away from city life appeals to you then there's nothing like the furthest isle from the Scottish mainland!
