5 Beautiful Luxury Glamping Sites to Inspire Your Next Staycation

Spending some quality time in the great outdoors can do wonders for us. Most of us don’t get enough fresh air, exercise, and quality time with loved ones, away from screens and our demanding jobs. 

That’s why a luxury glamping holiday can be such a great way to take a well-deserved break from our hectic everyday lives; you can get into nature, spend time with our nearest and dearest, and let the stress melt away with little added comforts you wouldn’t get on a traditional camping holiday.

Today, we’re giving a spotlight to just a few of the 80+ fabulous UK glamping sites Wigwam® Holidays has to offer. These sites offer a great setting for a luxurious glamping holiday, whether you’re after a romantic break or a family-friendly staycation.
