Glamping in South West England

Name: South West England
Address: Camping
Rating: 4.8895

As one of the country’s top camping spots, it should be no surprise that South West England leads the way in terms of glamping too. You can choose to simply rent a pre-pitched tent or go all in for luxury and find somewhere that offers hot tubs, fluffy towels, and all mod cons. Bell tents are a popular summer glamping option—you can stay cool under canvas and they offer enough space for a family to bed down in a single space. Yurts and tipis are also one-room options for families, as they tend to offer a bit more head room, have better insulation, and may even feature a log burner. Safari tents can vary from a multi-room tent to a wooden-floored luxury lodge that wouldn’t be out of place on a game reserve in Africa. Shepherd’s huts and gypsy caravans, log cabins, camping pods, and geodesic domes offer a bit more protection from the South West England elements, sometimes a bit more space, and a few more facilities too. You’ll find them all in the South West, which probably offers the best selection of glamping accommodation in the UK.

Churchill, England · 9 units · Tents, Glamping

Off the beaten track on top of the Mendips in an area of outstanding natural beauty. A mixture of four acres of wild woodland, orchard and field set on a hillside. Our Yurt is set up in the trees giving you peaceful seclusion and a clear view across the sea to Wales and the mountains of the Brecon Beacons. The Yurt is big and sleeps up to four very comfortably. It has its own stove and outside is a washroom just for you with hot shower , toilet and sinks. Your own meadow allows you to just relax and be. Up on the campfield you can bring your own tent or hire a Belle tent from us with all the fittings to camp contentedly. Our new Wash House has hot showers, flushing toilets and basins. You can light a fire and cook up a BBQ or maybe just watch the world go by. A huge range of activities are possible or you can lie in the hammock with a good book. We have very friendly dogs and rescue chickens who may come and visit. Wild deer wander past in the early morning mist and the odd buzzard picks an argument with a bunch of crows but nothing much else should disturb you. We moved here after an 18 month search 11 years ago. It was close to everything we wanted and we've spent some time getting a bit closer.

St Kew, England · 83 units · Tents, Motorhomes, Glamping

Wake up to the sound of birdsong, go swimming before breakfast in the clear water of a secluded lake. Cook your bacon and eggs over an open fire while you plan your day, or just laze it away in the peace and quiet of your own personal tipi. You can always go fishing tomorrow, and walk along the cliffs the day after that… The site is a unique woodland valley folded around a clear, spring-fed lake created from the old Tregildrans Quarry. Our tipis and tent pitches are dotted about this secret 20 acres full of ferns, bluebells, oak and meadowsweet. Left in peace for many years there's been no modern chemicals or poisons on the land, meaning we've got bluebells, dormice, Red Admirals and shy woodland Jays for you to spot. It’s a place set apart from the rush and clutter of the modern holiday experience, with an atmosphere that makes you forget the world outside, and just lounge, ramble, or potter about in a boat. We're committed to giving you a genuinely individual service from first contact to your time staying with us. We established CTH in 1996. This was the first and we believe still is the best tipi holiday site in the UK. We know our area inside out and can always help with local knowledge or contacts if you need them. We want to offer our guests a sustainable holiday. A return to real camping means the lowest possible impact on the land and environment - our tipi poles don’t even break the surface of the earth. Your footprint while here could only be bettered by a survival expert. You don't have to fly! a major bonus, and we source all our wood, fish and canvas locally and work with local people wherever possible.

Perfect remote glamping tent, there’s a Tesco near with fuel and a shop. The hosts are very kind and welcoming. The kitchen has utensils incase you have forgotten any and has a sink. We even did some wild blackberry picking! My only feedback would be the toilets lock is a little dodgy and wouldn’t fully securely lock, and the toilet roll kept running out, luckily we brought some with 🤣

What an amazing place! My friend and I booked a Celtic pod each and wow! So comfortable, very well built in a lovely part of the camp with sea view! The camp itself was very calm, relaxed and Sam, who looks after the camp was so friendly and had lots of recommendations! There is a lovely forest path “The Lovers Walk” that takes you from the camp to the harbour in about 10-15 mins! Super cool!! And it has everything needed: washing up area, showers, dry loo & a freezer as well as wood for the fire you can purchase. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful! We absolutely loved our stay. The location was also perfect to discover the Lizard Peninsula with lots of trails nearby including the West Coastal Way! And we were so lucky to have the most beautiful, hot weather with blue sky and sunshine and at night? A starry night right above our heads! Couldn’t recommend it more!

If you're looking to relax and soak up nature this is a beautiful spot on the edge of the forest. We stayed in a Bell Tent with lovely extras with some nice fruit tea bags and sugar stir sticks. Everything looked brand new. Very clean showers and toilet blocks - modern and fresh. Nothing was too much trouble - don't normally camp but I would have been happy for a week with a good book but sadly could only stay one night :-(

We had such an incredible time at Westland farm. The Shepard’s hut was perfect for a stay with two small children. It felt very private, and the gated garden area was perfect for our dog and children. The views and sunsets were totally stunning, especially with the reservoir in the distance. We loved the hot tub, a real treat. And our son loved seeing all the farm animals. Couldn’t recommend more!

We had such a wonderful stay at the shepherd’s hut and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The setting was absolutely gorgeous, especially with the beautiful weather we were lucky enough to have — it made everything feel even more magical and relaxing. Everything was explained so clearly on arrival, which made settling in really easy and stress-free. The hut itself was spotless, well thought out, and had everything we needed for a cosy and comfortable stay. One of the highlights was definitely our meal at The Village Pub — it was honestly the best meal of the trip and made the whole experience feel even more special. We had the best time and would absolutely love to come back again. Such a perfect little escape to the countryside!

My wife and I had an amazing time. The hut is situated in a lovely farm, next to a lovely little stream so you wake up with the peaceful sound of wildlife and the trickling of the stream. The hot tub is a nice touch. A little fire in the hut keeps the place cosy and warm. Will definitely be returning.

I had the most amazing camping experience here after not camping for 10 years, and it couldn’t have been better! 🏕️ The view is absolutely stunning, and the bell tent was a great size – clean, comfortable, and really cosy. The toilets and showers are quite basic, but honestly perfect for this kind of stay. The host was super helpful with excellent communication throughout, which made everything easy and stress-free. I especially loved the firepit, and wood was available, which made the evenings extra special. 🔥✨ Overall, this place exceeded my expectations and gave me the perfect return to camping. Highly recommended!
