Calling all families; you need this more than you know!

Updated: Sep 29, 2023

No matter where you are located, in today's fast-paced world, escaping the hustle and bustle of city or suburban life has become a necessity for many families. The solution? We might be biased here at The Glamp, but for us, its hands-down getting out in nature. Combining the best of camping and luxury, so no creature comfort is left behind, glamping offers a unique opportunity for families to reconnect with nature, bond with each other, and create lasting memories.


In this age of productivity culture, everyone loves a list, so let me run you through some reasons why our family resonates with getting out in nature at least every month. 1. Reconnection with Nature In our urbanized lives, we often forget the simple pleasures of nature. Glamping allows families to immerse themselves in the great outdoors without sacrificing comfort. Surrounded by natural beauty, the sights, sounds, and scents of nature become an integral part of the experience. Whether it's waking up to birdsong, stargazing around a campfire, or exploring nearby hiking trails, glamping rekindles our connection with the environment. 2. Quality Family Time One of the most significant advantages of glamping is the uninterrupted family time it provides. Without the distractions of modern life, families can engage in meaningful conversations, play games, and share stories. Whether you're roasting marshmallows by the campfire or snuggled up in a cozy glamping tent, the focus is on strengthening bonds and building cherished memories. 3. Comfort and Convenience Traditional camping often involves roughing it, but glamping takes the stress out of outdoor living. Families can enjoy comfortable bedding, electricity, private bathrooms, and even gourmet meals prepared on-site by a private chef. Glamping sites are well-equipped, ensuring that everyone in the family feels relaxed and pampered. 4. Educational Adventures Glamping sites often offer opportunities for hands-on learning. Families can engage in guided nature walks, wildlife spotting, or even learn about local flora and fauna. For kids, it's a chance to discover the wonders of the natural world and gain a deeper appreciation for the environment. 5. Adventure and Exploration Glamping doesn't mean sacrificing adventure. Families can still partake in thrilling activities like kayaking, zip-lining, or horseback riding, all while returning to a comfortable base at the end of the day. It's the perfect balance of excitement and relaxation. 6. Disconnect to Reconnect You can still stay online most of the time if you need to but, glamping also provides an excellent excuse to disconnect from screens and reconnect with each other. Without the constant allure of smartphones and tablets, families can fully engage in the present moment and rediscover the joy of human interaction. 7. Stress Reduction City life can be overwhelming, and the stress often affects every family member. Glamping in a serene natural setting offers an opportunity to unwind, lower stress levels, and rejuvenate both mentally and physically. The peaceful ambiance and fresh air work wonders for relaxation. 8. A Taste of Adventure For picky eaters and aspiring chefs alike, glamping introduces families to a world of culinary delights. With the option to cook over a campfire, learn outdoor cooking skills, or enjoy gourmet meals prepared by experienced chefs, glamping offers a diverse gastronomic experience that pleases even the most discerning palates. 9. Foster Independence Glamping encourages children to step out of their comfort zones and develop independence. Whether it's setting up a tent or exploring the natural surroundings, kids gain valuable life skills and a sense of self-sufficiency. 10. Unforgettable Memories Ultimately, the goal of any family getaway is to create unforgettable memories. Glamping provides the perfect canvas for these memories, ensuring that every member of the family leaves with stories to tell and a longing to return to the great outdoors. So, if you're seeking a getaway that allows your family to escape the city, reconnect with nature, and experience the benefits of quality time together, consider glamping. It's an adventure that promises relaxation, exploration, and cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
