Planning for your glamping getaway is an exciting part of the trip; getting to know the area, scouting out fun things to do and places to visit and generally being prepared for relaxing break away. Insider knowledge is always helpful in selecting some of the best things to do and that’s why we’ve put together some top tips for you to consider before setting off for your next glamping getaway
Prepare to take a dip and pack a swimming costume
If cold water isn’t your thing then you’ll love our hot tubs; each lodge comes with its own private hot tub, which is ideal to escape from the cold and warm up. For added luxury, why not try one of our two new lodges, Otter and Kestrel, which offer a private Sauna too!
If you fancy a wilder experience and love an adrenaline rush then head to Nottingham Watersports Centre. Here you will be able to get involved in swimming, white water rafting and a whole host of other outdoor water-based activities.
Venture out to the countryside surrounding Nottingham
Surrounded by 15 acres of woodland, our luxury glamping lodges are the perfect escape to the outdoors. As soon as you step foot outside of your lodge you are fully immersed in nature and there is an abundance of walks that will take you through the breathtaking countryside surrounding West Bridgeford, the Vale of Belvoir, and Nottingham. Find out more about some of the amazing walks on offer with our guide to five countryside walks you need to go on.
Spend some time in the city
If you’re looking to mix your glamping getaway with some fun in the city, Birdholme is perfectly situated. We are a stone’s throw away from Nottingham, a city full of rich history, all the usual high street favourites and an amazing selection of places to eat and drink. It’s so easy to plan your trip to combine the countryside escape with city exploration.
Keep your drinks cool
Whether it’s summer or winter, you can keep your drinks chilled in the fridge during your stay. All of our glamping lodges come with fully equipped kitchens ready for you to use, so bring your favourite food and beverages, and stock up the fridge for your stay. Pack some bubbles and celebrate your trip away in style in the beautiful setting of the Birdholme woodlands.
Don’t forget to bring marshmallows!
Our fire pits are a top spot to keep warm in the evenings and perfect for toasting marshmallows in the evening – so don’t forget those! Toasting marshmallows on an open fire is the perfect accompaniment to any camping OR glamping excursion. Relax and watch the stars in the enclosed fire pit part of your lodge.
