If you don’t feel up to camping but want to experience the thrill of it, why not give glamping a go? There are plenty of places you can go around Route YC and we hope the reasons below will convince you to step out of the ordinary and give it a go.
A Touch of Luxury
If you are wanting to do something different rather than staying in a hotel, then head out glamping. Glamping still feels adventurous. You won’t be staying in a hotel with all the mod cons, and you will unlikely have an en-suite with WI-FI or flat-screen TV in your room. Instead, you’ll be swapping your hotel room for somewhere incredible. You could stay in a shepherd’s hut or a tipi or even a Sea King helicopter, much more interesting than a hotel room. Wake up in the morning to an incredible view and enjoy being adventurous without having to sacrifice a comfy bed.
You don’t have to be an expert
Camping is not as easy as just grabbing a tent and sleeping bag. There is more you need to know such as, putting up your tent, have you remembered everything, like your gas stove so you can eat?
With glamping, you won't need to buy or bring any additional equipment and you definitely will not need to be putting a tent up or down. All that hard work is done for you, making it much more relaxing. All you need to do is show up, sit back, and enjoy being outdoors.
Stay in beautiful places
If you have researched glamping before you'll be familiar with all the fantastic destinations to choose from. From beaches to wild landscapes, farms to forests, there is something for everyone. Not only the view but the accommodation itself always looks welcoming and cosy, perfect for a little retreat away.
Watching the night sky
The best thing about being outdoors is getting a chance to see the night sky. If you live in the city, you probably forget how dark it actually gets in the countryside, allowing star spotting and if you are lucky you might catch sight of a shooting star, the aurora borealis can sometimes be seen right here on the Yorkshire Coast.
There are lots of glamping sites with hot tubs too. A perfect chance to relax and look up at the beautiful night sky.
