There comes a time when we all need to get away from it, but that doesn’t mean that we have to go without the little luxuries that make life worth living. Spending time in peace and quiet, far from the madding crowd with only your loved one beside you, is a great way to recharge the batteries and get ready to re-enter the fast-paced fray that is modern life. That’s why camping holidays and exclusive hotels are a great choice for a quick break, whether at home and abroad, and why we’ve created this handy guide filled with luxury getaway ideas.

The Rise Of Glamping

When you hear the word ‘camping’ you may picture a draughty caravan or mobile home or huddling together for warmth inside a tent that’s a little too small for comfort. Camping in the 21^st century doesn’t have to be like that because glamping has taken it to a whole new level of luxury. If you didn’t know, glamping is an abbreviation of glamorous camping, so you can forget about tired old canvas and get ready for spacious and aesthetically pleasing tents and lodges that have been designed with luxury firmly in mind. Glamping even featured in ABC Family’s hit series ‘Pretty Little Liars‘ and is becoming more popular each year.

Make A Hobbit Hole Your Habitat

The ‘Lord Of The Rings‘ movie franchise has scooped a plethora of awards and revitalized the concept of fantasy films, but one aspect of it has crossed from fiction into fact. As you’ll know, the Middle Earth burrows where Frodo and his friends live are called hobbit holes – and now you can have a unique getaway in a hobbit hole of your very own. They’re both larger and more luxurious than you might imagine and come with electricity and all the mod cons you could need, but it’s their iconic design that makes them so popular. You can click here if you need to brush up on your Middle Earth mythology before you go, but hobbit holes can be found at luxury campsites from the east to the west coast, so they’ll make for a vacation you’ll never forget.

High-Class Hotels Away From The Crowds

There’s nothing worse than booking what looks to be a high-quality hotel in a perfect location, only to find when you get there that it’s full to the rafters with loud-mouthed tourists of every kind. Websites like Secret Hotels now allow you to find superior quality hotel rooms with great value deals that aren’t offered elsewhere; that means that you can find a hotel that’s both refined and relaxing, while still getting a great value price. The hotel name itself is kept secret until after a booking is made, but that adds to a frisson of excitement to the vacation

Getaways are better when they really do let you get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and the crowds associated with it. Secret hotels, hobbit holes, and glamping cabins allow you to do just that, and they provide a superior standard of comfort backed up by all the modern-day luxuries you’ve come to rely upon. They are relaxation solutions that you’ll return to again and again.
