2021-02-25T09:32:00+00:00
Luxury group glamping experiences will be available this summer at a range of sites around England.
Each glamping site will feature ten bell tents which can be hired out exclusively or with smaller social bubbles.
Kymani is offering the tailor-made glamping trips from May to September to a range of group and family sizes.
The glamping sites, which include Kentwell Hall in Suffolk and The Grange in Hampshire, can be hired out exclusively for large groups of up to 40 people, or set up for smaller social bubbles which will be able to share the site in a Covid-safe, socially distanced way.
Each location will feature ten furnished bell tents, sleeping two to four guests, and at the centre of each site will be a giant tipi and a banquet table for dining, a library, a lounge and games area.
The current locations are:
Surrey - Godstone Valley
Wiltshire - The Glade, Sunset Valley and The Meadow at Charlton Park
Suffolk - Kiln Paddock and Park Paddock at Kentwell Hall
Hampshire - Home Covert at The Grange
There will be a range of activities on offer at each site such as yoga, foraging, as well as arts and crafts. A locally-sourced breakfast and dinner will be included in the cost of the stay.
Kentwell Hall in Suffolk, is one of the four locations available for the luxury group glamping experiences.
About Kymani
Kymani was set up by Olivett Asare and Cheryl Carroll who have backgrounds in the events industry. They wanted to offer groups, large or small, the chance to book either as a collective of smaller groups or to hire out the sites exclusively.
On launching in summer 2021, they said: “We’re both really passionate about everything outdoors – camping, festivals, hiking, glamping – and when the events industry collapsed last year we knew that we could combine our expertise of running events and our love of glamping and create something unique for the travel market.
“We can’t wait for people to create their very own glamping escape – after the last year we’re all in need of something to look forward to and we’re hoping our tailor-made trips are just what the doctor ordered.”
The flagship hotel on Shanklin High Street offered a quiet and entertaining stay, with top attractions nearby which are enough to tempt groups into a visit.

Warner Hotels has partnered with BBC Studios to offer a range of Strictly Come Dancing holidays to get up close and personal with some of the world’s most renowned professional dancers.
There won’t be as many trains on the tracks, but organisers of the Group Leisure & Travel Awards have moved to reassure guests, finalists and partners that the ceremony is all set for 4th October in Milton Keynes, with convenient and free parking options.
