What is all the hype with luxury camping?  This new phenomenon of “glamping” aka “glamourous camping” – what’s it all about?

Really what is the big deal?

In actuality, there is a lot to be said for luxury camping.  There are many tangible benefits to luxury camping which today with ordinary camping, just doesn’t fulfill.

Who is tired with waking up after a spot of rain to find the rain has seeped into their tent and made their sleeping bag all soggy?

Who is tired of trying to walk around hunched over in their small tent without enough space?

Who is tired off trying to remember all of camping equipment and after you’ve arrived on site and erected the tent discover that one of those key fundamental essentials you’ve forgot!?!  Only to realise that yes the closes shop to purchase the missing item is 50km away.

With luxury camping you have none of these hassles and inconveniences.  This is the beauty of luxury camping.

Your accommodation – which ever you choose, be it luxury massive tents, yurts, tepees, or tree houses or a geodesic dome is ready and waiting for you all assembled before you arrive.  There is none of the hassle of having to bring all your camping equipment with you, nor the hassle of erecting your tent.

Also with luxury camping the accommodation structures are much sturdier than traditional camping. So it is unlikely that you will be waking up to the soggy sleeping bag phenomena.

Also, did I mention beds?  One of the best things about luxury camping is the beds!  Yes you get to sleep in a proper and real bed making your luxury camping trip that much more enjoyable as you get to sleep again.  There is no need to wake up tired.

Why not check out luxury camping, the new way of camping and experience something different?  Forget all those regular camping hassles and nightmares and make your camping experience something to remember with luxury camping.

No!  This is a thing of the past.

Say hello to “glamping” and luxury camping.

Yes, luxury camping has the new nickname “glamping” which means “glamourous camping” and is really a whole new trend in the world of camping.

Luxury camping is not only confined to traditional style camping.  And if it is on par with traditional style camping, one thing is certain, it is not what you are used to.

Only a particular type of tent is used within luxury camping.  That would be of course, only the luxury tent.  You know those big massive tents with oodles and oodles of room.

The joy of luxury camping is that they come already waiting and erected for you.  Usually in stunning surroundings and on wooden flooring.

Luxury camping is not only confined to luxury tents. 

You can find the increasingly popular Mongolian originated yurts within the luxury camping genre.  Yurts have become the latest trend in luxury camping due to their feel good factor and round shape where you can sleep under the stars when the roof is opened up. 

If your looking for something a bit different why not check out a tree house!  Yes tree houses (if they are of the right quality) are also in the luxury camping genre).  Also you can find tepees in the luxury camping genre.

Then their is the increasingly popular geodesic domes and pods.  These are funky rounded circular dome structures, often eco friendly that can be found in even the remotest locations such as the snow fields and deserts.

So why not say good bye to the cumbersome erecting of tents and sleepless nights and try something different.  There is a whole range of accommodation options within luxury camping and there really is something for everyone.

But what on earth is camping in luxury?  Isn’t camping meant to be blow up beds that go down or sleeping on those thin mats and getting a bad nights sleep and waking up in the morning tired?  Or that familiar old bad weather scenario where the rain hits and comes through the lining with the end result of a yucky wet sleeping bag?  Isn’t it about trying to move around in small spaces while crunched over?

No!  Say goodbye to these old camping days.  The new trend sweeping the camping globe is luxury camping.  Luxury camping has also recently been called “Glamping” which means “Glamourous Camping” or even “Boutique Camping”.

The traditional camping tent is not the only way to do luxury camping.  There are all sorts of types of abodes for you to choose from  that come under the description of what luxury camping is.

These can be yurts, tipis, tree houses, wagons, podpasts, squrts and all other sorts of other creative accommodation ideas.  But generally it is a mobile structure that reminds us of camping but without all the minus points to camping like what was mentioned about.  Instead we have the luxury and glamourous aspects of camping to look forward to.

There are many places around the globe where you will find glamourous camping right now.  Very hot for luxury camping is the region of Europe which seems to be leading the way.  In some luxury camping sites you will find a mix in the types of accommodation offered.  Meanwhile other sites will focus in on offering one particular type of accommodation  {Indeed there could be erected tents but with a luxurious twist.}  For example in a forrest with big grand tents erected on wooden platforms with luxurious bathrooms and more.

Some locations take the level of service to a whole other level and have many services to offer which are similar to a retreat with massage and therapies and even onsite yoga lessons.

There is a great variety on offer and you need to do your homework to check you are getting exactly the experience and services you are looking for your luxury camping trip.
