What is glamping and why are more and more people choosing luxury camping?
Glamping - a contraction of "glamorous" and "camping" - has long since ceased to be hype. What once began as an alternative form of travel for adventurous luxury seekers has become a fixture within the vacation world. But why does glamping appeal to so many people? The answer lies in the unique blend of experience and comfort. Where traditional camping is sometimes grueling - think mediocre beds, shared showers and a wobbly gas burner - glamping actually offers peace and convenience. Think a fully furnished tent with box-spring beds, a private bathroom, kitchen and sometimes even air conditioning or heating. This way you experience the outdoors without sacrificing luxury.
Glamping is also surprisingly versatile. You can choose a sturdy safaritent, a cozy yurt, a wooden lodge tent or even a treehouse. Many locations offer extras like a hot tub, a private terrace with a view or an outdoor kitchen. This also makes it a popular choice for couples, families and groups of friends.
For families, glamping is totally a godsend. The kids can play in nature while you enjoy your coffee on the porch. And if you don't want to leave your dog behind? More and more locations offer glamping with dogs, so your four-legged friend can come along on the adventure.
Overnight stays in a glamping tent: from safaritent to yurt
Not every glamping tent is the same - and that's a good thing. From sturdy safaritents to fairytale yurts and modern lodge tents: there is a huge diversity of glamping accommodations. Each type has its own charm and comfort level. Renting a safaritent is perfect if you like space. These tents are often equipped with a real kitchen, separate bedrooms and a veranda with lounge sofas. Some even have private bathrooms. They are on campsites that are specially equipped for glamping guests, with facilities such as swimming pools, playgrounds and a sandwich service.
Yurts - originally from Mongolia - are round and attractively furnished with lots of wood and textiles. They often have a central wood-burning stove and offer a surprisingly warm atmosphere, even in spring or autumn. If you are looking for a unique experience, then renting a yurt is highly recommended.
Then there are lodge tents: sort of a cross between a chalet and a tent. They combine wooden structures with canvas, and often offer just that little bit of extra comfort. Think separate bedrooms, a sitting area inside and outside and a complete inventory.
Check out the stays in France or choose a summer glamping in Italy. There you often stay at small-scale campsites with a local character and views of mountains, lakes or olive groves.
Last minute glamping at home and abroad
Booking a glamping last minute may sound like a gamble, but the opposite is true. Precisely because of the rise of flexible owners and real-time availability, you can now very easily rent a furnished tent last minute. Ideal for those who want a spontaneous weekend out, without compromising on comfort. The big advantage of glamping last minute is the combination of speed and luxury. No need to bring anything: everything is ready. No hassle with pegs or air mattresses, just pack your suitcase and go. Especially for couples or young families who want to get away from it all, this is a perfect solution. In addition, the stays are surprisingly large.
Note: glamping is seasonal, so the number of available last minute accommodations varies by period. Spring and fall are the most likely, especially if you are flexible in your destination. For those who book really last minute, glamping in Belgium or a quiet place in the Achterhoek or the Veluwe is often a good choice.
Glamping with children or dog
Traveling with children or pets requires flexibility - and that is exactly what glamping offers. More and more locations are focusing specifically on families and pet-friendly overnight stays. For example, it is possible to book a spacious tent where everyone sleeps comfortably, including the dog.
- Playgrounds and sports fields
- Swimming pools or water playgrounds
- Animation in high season
- Highchairs and cots in the tent
The surroundings also play a role: from natural areas with hiking trails to child-friendly outings such as animal parks or climbing parks. So children have plenty to do, while parents can relax and enjoy the outdoors.

What does a glamping tent look like?
A glamping tent is a comfortable tent designed to combine the camping feel with the luxury of a holiday home. Unlike a normal tent, glamping tents come with practical amenities and more comfort. For example, glamping tents are often a lot more spacious than regular camping tents. They have enough height to stand up. Furthermore, in glamping tents you will often find comfortable beds instead of air mattresses. In glamping tents, you will also often find furniture such as chairs, tables, bedside tables, lamps and sometimes a closet or storage space. Often the furniture is made of scaffold wood. Also, there are often multiple light sources in the tent. Glamping tents usually have carpeting, such as a wooden floor or carpet, to increase comfort. Finally, most tents have their own kitchen and private bathroom facilities. So you don't have to go to a bathroom building to use the toilet or take a shower. In short, glamping tents offer a comfortable and luxurious camping experience while still enjoying the real camping feeling.
