Glamping Holidays in The Lake District

Where to go glamping in the Lake District

Glamping gives you the best of both worlds. On one hand, you get the freedom of the great outdoors. On the other, you come back each evening to a proper bed, en suite and fully equipped kitchen. For something extra special, choose a site with a wood-fired hot tub and soak under the stars.

There’s a great range of accommodation styles to choose from. These include glamping pods, shepherd’s huts, treehouses, bell tents, safari tents and yurts. Furthermore, many of our Lake District glamping sites suit larger families and groups. Dogs are also welcome at plenty of our sites, making it a brilliant choice for a pet friendly glamping holiday in the Lake District.

Where to explore in the Lake District

The Lake District packs an extraordinary amount into one region. Here are some of the highlights worth building your trip around:

Scafell Pike — England’s highest peak. It’s a challenging climb, but the views are well worth the effort
Catbells and the Langdale Pikes — more accessible walks that still offer stunning panoramic views
Windermere — the most popular lake in the region. As well as the scenery, you’ll find boutique shops, art galleries and great places to eat
Ullswater — widely regarded as one of England’s most beautiful lakes. It’s ideal for a hike or a leisurely boat trip
Grasmere and Rydal Water — two picturesque smaller lakes. While you’re here, visit Dove Cottage, the former home of William Wordsworth
Keswick — a brilliant base for independent shopping and great cafés. In addition, don’t miss the Pencil Museum, where kids can uncover the secret history of World War 2 pencils
Hill Top — the National Trust’s beloved former home of Beatrix Potter. As a result, it’s a must-visit for families

What to expect from Lake District glamping accommodation

Our glamping sites combine comfort with real character. You can expect proper beds, en suite bathrooms and fully equipped kitchens. Moreover, most sites offer outdoor space to make the most of your surroundings. After a day on the fells or out on the water, you’ll always have a warm and cosy base to return to. In short, that’s what makes glamping in the Lake District such a memorable experience.
