Anyone been glamping

Postby Mistletoe » Tue May 07, 2013 10:12 pm

Calling all glampers ;)

The sun has come out and obviously feeling v optimistic here :D
Have heard about Featherdown but that's the sum total of my knowledge.

Any help or advice much appreciated.

We did Featherdown Farms a couple of years ago. DD's were then 3 & 1 and loved it, probably even more now. Had a great time, not cheap but my pal got a deal so not too bad eventually. Would do it again and I'm not the biggest fan of anything without an bathroom and a telly!

I've done it the sum total of once, my first camping trip in nigh on 30yrs. We stayed in a yurt at Hidden Spring. Basic facilities on site - washing up, good showers etc but no 'entertainment', it's not a big campsite, but we had a marvellous time and it's reignited an enjoyment of camping.
The yurts are well-equipped, comfy and with the log-burner lit, warm!

We've just booked to go to http://www.forestyurts.com/ in Dorset, each yurt is individually decorated and has own shower facility and cooking area. It gets great reviews on trip advisor. I'll be 7 months pregnant when we go in August, so 'glamping' was the only way I was going for a canvas getaway!! :lol:

Have a look at Longlands - established last year by a Teddington family in North Devon. It looks fantastic and has had great reviews. They have literally thought of everything - the safari lodges come completely equipped with all your toiletries, dog baskets, pantry kits plus everything you'd expect in terms of heating, ensuite etc...
