Remember that time Glawning was featured in Yorkshire Life magazine’s June 2024 issue as one of Yorkshire’s standout holiday locations welcoming summer guests?!
We couldn't believe our luck when we opened the first page of the mag to see our own smiling glamping faces as 'Creative Campers' with a full article on “A big Yorkshire welcome from field to treetop”!
This article by Emma Chemsworth celebrates the spirit of Yorkshire-style outdoor living and the growing appeal of glamping for adventurous travellers and families alike.
At Glawning, we’ve always believed that holidays should be about comfort, connection, and great memorable experiences — not cold wet ones! - and it’s incredible to see that ethos recognised in one of Yorkshire’s most respected lifestyle publications.
Being included in Yorkshire Life isn’t just a lovely accolade — it’s a reflection of how far Glawning has come, from a small 'do you think it would work?' idea to a part of the wider Yorkshire outdoor lifestyle scene. The magazine’s coverage sits alongside stories of inspiring destinations across the region, highlighting how glamping — and the beautiful Glawning driveaway awning set‑ups — are a firm favourite for guests seeking something special from their camping holidays.
Over the years, we’ve been told again and again by our customers how much joy Glawning experiences bring — from lazy breakfasts cooked on the woodburner listening to the rain outside to cosy evenings with friends and family under canvas. The Yorkshire Life feature highlights this shift in holiday tastes: more people are choosing great value outdoor breaks that offer both adventure and comfort.
That’s what Glawning is all about — bringing a touch of style, warmth, and community to your breaks in nature.
Beyond the coverage in the magazine, our community spirit continues to grow through events like our annual gatherings. 2017 saw us start Glampfest — a family‑friendly festival in North Yorkshire that brings glampers together for music, activities, food and incredible set‑ups across the fields near Knaresborough. The event has grown tremendously, with hundreds of attendees and activities designed for all ages.
Whether it’s sharing stories around a campfire or meeting new friends at local events, we’re proud that Glawning is more than a product — it’s a lifestyle and a community. A huge thank you to everyone who’s supported us, shared pictures, left reviews, and joined us on adventures big and small. Being featured in Yorkshire Life was a lovely moment for us, but nothing means more than the joy you find in your own Glawning escapes.
Here’s to more nights under canvas, more laughter around the woodburner, and more Yorkshire horizons explored in comfort and style!
