Every year, camping is becoming more and more popular among tourists, offering an eco-friendly vacation that saturates with emotions and inner resources. British resorts are ideal for this type of vacation.

What is the peculiarity of camping? First, you are not just in the woods, but in a well-equipped area with all the amenities, from outdoor showers to field kitchens. Secondly, such areas are usually guarded, which guarantees safety. Finally, you will be surrounded by people who share your passion and love for nature.

In the UK, camping areas are often paid for. Renting a site or tent will cost about $15-40 per night. Although you can find cheaper options, they may be less comfortable. Where to go on such an eco-vacation?

In the previous article, we told you how to organize a tent trip and where the best campsites in Europe are located.

1. Holden Farm Camping, Hampshire 

Family camping in the South Downs National Park is the exact opposite of what we think of as tent camping. Although you are in the middle of nature, your comfort is as good as any hotel. 

Here you can enjoy hot showers, clean drinking water, a full kitchen with all the amenities, electricity, and outdoor seating without feeling any inconvenience. And there is even more fun for children here - they can see deer and sheep on a local farm, enriching their experience of adventure in this wonderful place.

2. Secret Shelters, East Sussex 

It's not just a tent, but a real nest in the middle of nature, striking in its uniqueness. British designer Jason Tolley has turned an ordinary tent into an amazing structure - a “tree tent”. 

Located on sturdy oak trees in an ancient forest, this flying round house will delight anyone who has ever dreamed of an unusual home. Inside, it comfortably accommodates two adults and one child, and thanks to modern technology, there are even comfortable beds. And if you decide that you don't want to leave this magical place, Jason Tolley is ready to build you your own custom nest, making your fantasies come true.

3. The Secret Garden Touring Park, Cambridgeshire

This campsite is a real haven for travelers, with everything you need for a comfortable outdoor stay. Here you will find not only a regular shower, but also a full-fledged mini-hotel with a shop, laundry and everything you need to recuperate. You can choose whether to make tea over a fire in a cast-iron cauldron or just buy a ready-made drink. 

For children there is a maze and workshops, for adults - delicious tastings of craft beer and sausages roasted over a campfire, as well as the opportunity to enjoy free time throughout the weekend. Such a campsite is an ideal place to relax with the whole family or with friends.

Planning a trip or move abroad? An important part of a successful trip is an insurance policy, as it guarantees high-quality medical care anywhere in the world and can protect you from unnecessary expenses while travelling.  You can buy insurance from trusted agents on the Visit World portal. 

4. The Fire Pit Camp, Norfolk 

The Fire Pit Camp is an ideal place for a large company or a romantic getaway. Here you can enjoy the unique experience of staying in a two-story wooden tent built without a single nail by carpenter Matt Wade. 

A fireplace, comfortable chairs and a suite on the second floor will provide a comfortable atmosphere for socializing and relaxing. In addition, the campsite is often used for weddings, thanks to its beauty, environmental friendliness and the ability to host a banquet for 60 people. This place will enchant you with its atmosphere and unique experience of being in the arms of nature.

5. Alde Garden, Suffolk 

This place is a real paradise for lovers of eclecticism and cultural diversity. Here you can choose accommodation from all possible options: from an ordinary tourist tent to a handmade yurt, a gypsy caravan and a bourgeois Victorian cottage. 

Each choice will take you to a completely different atmosphere, and every day will bring new impressions. Here you will find free-roaming chickens and ducks, an eco-friendly jungle shower, a pizza oven, and even a roof lined with vinyl records. This is a place where every little thing is delightful, where every moment creates a unique atmosphere that fascinates and attracts.
