Whilst some might love the rustic, unruly adventure of the great outdoors, others might need a few extra creature comforts to make their time out in mother nature truly enjoyable. There’s no need to ditch the freedom and exploration that camping gives you! You simply need to invest in some great kit and implement a few clever hacks to transform your next trip into a glamping experience that even the fussiest of campers will love. Here’s how…

Invest in a camper trailer

If you’re hunting for creature comforts then there really is no better way to go than with a Cub camper trailer! For a truly luxurious and seriously spacious experience, you’re going to love The Drifter II. This double fold camper trailer gives you the ultimate glamping experience with all of the space of a caravan combined with the functionality and convenience of a camper trailer! This model has space for the whole family, sets up in a matter of moments and gives you plenty of room to deck out your trailer’s interiors for a cosy and styled up glamping trip.

Hang plenty of lights

Add strings of LED and fairy lights both in and around your camper trailer for an inviting glow that will have you feeling like you’re treating yourself to a serene nature retreat at the close of each day. For a snug atmosphere, make sure your lights are all warm toned, this adds a toasty hue to your interiors and reinforces that intimate, put together glamping feel that you’re going for.

Bring your best

Who says you have to leave all of your best pieces at home? Although hauling crazy expensive items to a campsite isn’t exactly a brilliant idea, you can always pack a few of your favourite pieces from your kitchen to make your dining experiences feel really special. Bring along your favourite mug, glassware and cutlery for a luxe touch to your daily routine at the campsite. 

Pack the picnic wear

Invest in some great quality, sustainable picnic wear and take your glamping experience out into the surrounding local area! Discovering hidden gems and new spots around your destination is a great way to spend a day. A picnic kit will enable you to set up a leisurely scene to relax, satiate yourself and soak up the weather or the stunning scenery.

Use linens

Another simple yet highly effective switch! Adding linens to the bed inside of your camper trailer will immediately make you feel as cosy as you would when tucked up in bed at home. How you finish and begin the day starts with your bed sheets, so this one really does make a huge difference to the tone of your trip.

Add all of the soft furnishings

Layer up plenty of blankets, oversized cushions and even lightweight rugs to create a plush, tactile trailer interior that feels like you’re at a hotel! You can add some energy by choosing an array of fun colours and patterns or keep it neutral for a more sophisticated glamping scene. 

Indulge in entertainment

Really relaxing and switching off sometimes means a little light entertainment. Pack books, art and crafts, a musical instrument, card games or anything else you can think of to keep yourself entertained inside of that haven that you’ve created for yourself. 

Prep a luxurious menu

Lastly, a great way of taking your camping to glamping is by upgrading your meal plan. Whilst you will not be able to produce five star fine dining, you can step up your mealtimes. Try adding a new combination of spices or a better quality protein into the mix to get creative with your campsite cooking. Pre-making and freezing your meals brings you the luxury of ease and time in the evenings so this is worth trying out!
