These days, getting out into nature<\/a> is a rare luxury. If you’re visiting the UK, there are few more inspiring and fulfilling travel experiences than throwing a sleeping bag in your rucksack and stepping out into the unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you love to rough it or you’re more of a ‘glamping’ (glamorous camping) type, there’s a stunning pitch with your name on it somewhere. Let’s take a look at some fantastic places to camp in Britain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Penzance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\"Penzance<\/figure><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coasts of Devon and Cornwall<\/a> are renowned for their beauty and are perfect for the comfortable, family-oriented camping experience. Penzance is especially replete with excellent campsites that feature hot showers and all the mod cons. Walk a few minutes out of the site, and you have some of Britain’s most beautiful beaches right on your door or tent flap-step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brecon Beacons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wales has no shortage of beautiful scenery. However, the Brecon Beacons are ideal if you’re looking for a spot that’s not too far away from London and only a stone’s throw back to civilization. The rolling hillsides and winding valleys hide some of the country’s most beautiful camping retreats. And, because the Beacons are a national park, your sites will always be top-notch. Throw on your hiking boots and lose yourself in this vast green expanse.<\/p>\n\n\n

New forest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve ever dreamt about waking up in a tent surrounded by wild ponies, the New Forest is definitely your camping spot. As the closest spot to London on our list, it’s extremely easy to get to and has everything you need for a family-friendly adventure. The Forest has many exciting activities, including kayaking, bike riding, and even sailing, so you’ll never get bored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glen Nevis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For those looking for an authentic wilderness camping experience, Scotland is the place to be. The law in Scotland means that you can walk pretty much anywhere and pitch up on any unenclosed land, meaning the countryside is ripe for true camping adventures. The Glen Nevis region, home to Scotland’s tallest mountain, encapsulates this ideal with spectacular highland views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isle of Jura<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Isle of Jura, situated amongst Scotland’s Inner Hebrides, is for seasoned explorers only. If you know how to navigate its vast, unspoiled wilderness without access to amenities, you’ll be treated to some of the most stunning camping experiences the UK offers. With only one small settlement and a ferry to the island once a day, it’s the perfect place to escape it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
