Sorry to offend all you hardened campers but ..... Glamping?

[merlin]

DS2 wants to camp - eek!

So to soften it a bit for me I thought somewhere with a ready tent/yurt etc might be a good midway point.

But nothing too "Boden and Bunting" - I was a girl guide in my day and have my camping badge so don't mind a bit of roughing it!!!

Thinking of Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Hampshire way.

Any suggestions please?

Canopy and Stars have a wonderful mix of places here

Ooh Nettle thank you- that looks right up m street! Will settle down with a cuppa later and have a browse!!!

Whatever makes you happy. Glamping is a good start and you may even find that you love it so much that you want your own kit. Then the shopping fun begins and is never ending!

Especially the Dutch pyramid tent!

Welsummer campsite in Kent is lovely and has a few ready-tents - some in the woods, some on the field.

I didnt know if I would get banned from the camping board if I mentioned it again......

and soon there will be pics of the rather huge and impressive pyramid with 'variolouffel' which has replaced said dutch tent (its the big brother!!)

We stayed at the Orchard Retreat. Only 3 yurts in the middle of an apple orchard. Pizza oven to hire for your family, great location, local farm shop for strawberry picking. Seriously recommend.
