Glamping Craze sweeping recession-hit Britain

Kate Whiting reports that “Celebrity chefs turned pubs into gastropubs, Glastonbury transformed the humble Wellington into a must-have fashion accessory – and now it seems camping has had a similar makeover.
Glamorous camping or “glamping” has officially hit Britain.
It’s out with tiny tents, wafer-thin bedding rolls and camping beds, and in with yurts, AeroBeds and luxurious down sleeping bags.
With the Met Office predicting a “long, dry summer”, and a combination of the recession and the weak pound dampening our desire to go abroad, VisitBritain research has revealed that five million of us are planning to holiday in the UK this year.
The Camping and Caravanning Club is forecasting one of its busiest summers on record.
It seems that hanging out in tents no longer means you’re a hardy, welly-wearing type, but a chilled, eco-friendly, fun-loving spirit.”

Eco-friendly Yurt Holidays in Central Portugal
Come and stay in our romantic Mongolian style yurt, nestled in the mountains of central Portugal, about one hour inland from the ancient university town of Coimbra. Its self-contained and fully furnished, set in our smallholding of terraced land, which we manage organically. Olives, vines and fruit trees surround the yurt; our own spring provides the water; and energy is solar powered.
