The Adventure
What it's all about.
The leisure adventure industry in the UK is growing and people of all ages are looking for more short breaks and outdoor pursuits throughout the year. These people would not ordinarily stay in a static caravan or go camping with their own equipment, but really like the idea of an adventure outdoors and maybe pursuing a totally new activity or something they already take part in.
Glamping Adventures will offer a range of engaging and unique activities and adventures to cater for guests of all ages giving you and us the opportunity for great, uncapped business development.

Glamping Adventures
Glamping Adventures Villages will be found in locations across the UK at first, in destinations great for outdoor adventure activities the whole family can join. Each village will have its own unique features and activities on-site or nearby.
For example:
A Glamping Adventures Village set-up near an established mountain bike park could not only offer accommodation, but also sell parts for bikes and offer facilities for bikers to use (Bike cleaning, tools etc…).
Glamping Adventures
Local business’s in the trading area of a Glamping Adventures Village will be offered the opportunity to supply their produce and products (where appropriate) for guests to purchase.
This not only encourages local business but also exposes them to a larger audience of potential customers.
We have some great ideas and can’t wait to start working with local suppliers.
Glamping Adventures
One of Glamping Adventures’ main selling points is offering the holiday guest (Adventure Seeker) the opportunity to purchase their own accommodation. This relieves the financial load off of the site owner and is great to help the said site expand and flourish.
The Adventure Seekers help individual Glamping Adventures Villages to expand their number of accommodation units and also allows the Glamping Adventures brand to grow.
For more information about the Adventure Seeker plan click here.
Stand Out From The Rest
We'll put you on the map.
Now that glamping has become more recognised, land owners are jumping at the chance to start their own glamping site. It is great that glamping is so accessible, however, it is now more important than ever to stand out from the estimated 5000+ glamping sites in the UK.
By being part of the Glamping Adventures brand allows you to benefit from brand exposure and your marketing potential will greatly expand.
