Why You Should Go Glamping on the North Yorkshire Coast

To those not used to pitching a tent, hiking into the wilderness can be a little too rugged despite the draw of the captivating beauty of the North Yorkshire countryside. Even those who choose to camp in a designated area with suitable facilities can find sleeping on the earth’s floor a bit too close to nature. 

If you enjoy the comforts of your home or hotel too much to consider camping but seek the countless benefits of holidaying in the great outdoors, then glamping at Middlewood Farm could be the perfect option for you. Here’s why:

1/ Camp In Comfort

Let’s face it, no one chooses to settle down in a tent for the night because of its relaxing features. Camping is a wonderful down-to-earth experience but sleeping on the hard ground, cold nights, and getting your feet tangled in your sleeping bag can be a less-than-ideal experience. While some fully embrace roughing it, others find it draining or a complete no go. 

Glamping, however, gives you the freedom to stretch, and settle in a real structured bed. Here at Middlewood Farm, our Glamping Pods boast an attractive dome shape design which gives you a spacious interior that you can easily stand upright inside. No more getting changed hunched over? Result!

2/ Breathtaking Views

Glamping brings nature to your doorstep, and allows you to set up camp in places that hotels or resorts could only dream of, and this is especially true along the North yorkshire coastline. As soon as you step out of your room you’ll feel the natural breeze in your hair, breathe fresh air into your lungs and gaze upon endless greenery that’s sure to soothe your soul. 

The glamping pods at Middlewood farm are equipped with a built-in porch area so that you can admire the view with a cup of warm tea, coffee or hot chocolate. On chillier nights when the air gets crisp, choose to curl up with one of our electric heaters and a blanket to admire the starlit sky from your spot on the coast. 

The city lights are far from a distraction in Robin Hood’s Bay. It really doesn’t get much better than that.

3/ No Need To Buy Costly Camping Equipment

While camping itself can be generally low cost, the equipment needed for a short getaway can quickly add up, if you’re not already hoarding it in the shed. 

From tents and sleeping bags to outdoor stoves and portable heaters, there are far too many camping items where quality is required for an enjoyable experience, and this can become an enormous expense. Not to mention, your luggage will become extortionate.

With a fully equipped glamping pod, there’s no need to run down your bank account. Simply book, pack your basics, and Middlewood Farm will handle the rest. 

4/ Have An Outdoor Adventure

With coastal walks galore and miles of beach waiting to be explored, the endless bounds of nature are right on your glamping pod doorstep. 

Stretch out your body, strap on your walking boots and plot your route from Robin Hood’s Bay to Whitby . The rocky cliffs and hidden fossils are sure to bring out your inner Indiana Jones.

5/ The Convenience Of Home 

Forget packing several layers, and checking the weather forecast daily in the week prior to your stay; luxury glamping pods offer ventilation, security, comfy mattresses, internal lighting, an electric heater and home appliances for cooking up some tasty treats. Even in winter, the hardiest of campers would be glad of this cosy warm alternative.

6/ Family Friendly Staycation 

It can be tricky to coordinate quality family time with work and school schedules interfering, but a glamping holiday can allow you to escape, if only for a weekend. 

Glamping holidays are a low-fuss, inexpensive way to bring the whole family together. Forget the life-sucking hassle of booking flights and time off work; with a glamping holiday, you won’t even need to book a dog-sitter. 

7/ A Mental Break

A glamping holiday gives you the opportunity to really relax and unwind, and the added luxuries of a glamping pod are sure to settle your mind. Getting away from the hustle and bustle in a calm and tranquil place nestled deep in the picturesque Yorkshire hills, will help you take a break from it all.
