If you’ve not been glamping before, but you’re curious, you are in the right place, Devon has a whole host of interesting glamping sites that will give you the very best experience you can have, plus, you’re in the beautiful landscape of Devon, so what more could you want?
To convince you of how great glamping is, we’ve compiled a list of the five best reasons to give it a try!
- It’s not too expensive
One of the reasons why people choose to go camping for their holidays is that it is a brilliant way to take a trip whilst on a budget and glamping can also be very cost effective. What you have is essentially a hotel experience, whilst on a camping site, so you get to avoid the costs of a conventional hotel. Most glamping sites also happen to be self-catering and have fully equipped kitchens allowing you to save money on your food. Another plus would be that you can keep your car onsite to save on public transport costs!
- It’s child and pet friendly
Another reason why camping is popular among families is that the sites have plenty of child-friendly activities to entertain them. It also helps to get them to put down their phones and tablets for a moment and enjoy being out in the wild. Don’t panic though, glamping sites tend to have all the mod cons, meaning wifi and electricity. Some of them even have TVs in the accommodations and they even have DVD libraries so you can have film nights! When it comes to pets, you’ll find that the majority of the sites in Devon are happy for you to bring your dogs with you and offer pet-friendly accommodation and plenty of room for them to explore.
- You’ll have time to relax
While your kids play, you can sit back and relax. When you go glamping in Devon, you’re surrounded by beautiful scenery and a relaxing atmosphere, but also everything you could want from a serene holiday. Some sites even have hot tubs and spa facilities!
- The social aspect
If you’ve ever been to a camp site or holiday park before, you’ll know that there is an almost village like atmosphere where you get to know your neighbours. Glamping is very similar. Some of them have communal fire pits, or bars and restaurants onsite for you to enjoy and get to know your fellow glampers. It’s a great choice for anyone who wants to go on a big group holiday, as you can all stay next to each other!
- The choice of accommodation
We left the best til last! The charm of glamping is that you get to have all the joy of the great British wilderness, while also enjoying hotel like luxury comforts. Sites across Devon will have everything from actual beds, modern toilets and bathrooms, cooking facilities, heating and more! The accommodation options range from huts, safari tents, tree houses, tipis, lodges… Whatever you can think of, you’ll find it!
There are loads of great glamping options in Devon for you to have your first experience with glamping! In the north of Devon you’ll find Yurtcamp Devon where you’ll find comfortable yurts in a variety of shapes and sizes! Or try Beyond Escapes in Totnes where there are apartments, lodges and more, plus a spa and restaurant for you to enjoy.
