The Best 4 Camping Spots for Summer 2022

Forget about escaping the UK. Get your inner outdoorsy thrill on right here.

by Violet Currey

At DAYMADE, we're all about winning prizes, sharing memories with our faves, and reconnecting with nature. So what's the best activity to tick off all of these? Oh yes, it's camping! The summer has officially begun, and it's screaming camping weather. Over the last few years, we have learnt that there is so much unique natural beauty around the UK that some of us never knew existed. There are magical waterfalls, killer hikes, wild swimming, loads of fun sports and even fairies (Say what!), to list a few. We all thought we had to travel halfway across the world to experience some of mother nature's wonders. But nope, the UK is jam-packed, and it's on our doorstep. Pack your tent, grab your bags and bring your pals (or just yourself, why not!) and even your furry friends to these incredible camping spots. Here are our four fave camping spots for you to enjoy this summer:

Brecon Beacons

The great Welsh countryside has something truly magical for everyone. It was a hard choice as Wales has an endless list of fun camping spots, but we have narrowed it down to the Brecon Beacons. The glorious mountain range is perfect for all levels of walkers, mountain hikers and nature lovers. One of the most exciting highlights if you head over to the Brecons for your next adventure is the Water Country. The Four Walks Waterfall is the famous waterfall which makes you feel like you're at Niagara Falls (okay, not quite - but close enough!) Pack your cozzy and jump in to enjoy some legit wild swimming. Explore the forests, peaks and wonderful lakes that the Beacons offer, or maybe you want to get your inner Tarzan on by riding the Zip World Tower. Head back to your campsite for some well-deserved R&R, crack open the barbie and enjoy the sweet peace and quiet. You have over 60 camping locations to choose from in one of the best nature spots for some authentic Welsh beauty.

Cornwall

What better way to experience the UK's best beaches than popping your tent up along the coastline and waking up to that fresh sea breeze every morning? Of course, Cornwall, a.k.a the French Riviera, is on our top 5 list. It's the perfect solo trip where you can FINALLY be one of those cool Cali surfer dudes! Don't know how to surf? Don't worry; we've got you covered with our epic Surfing & Wild Camping in Cornwall Vacation prize. You can win experiences pushing you out of your comfort zone and get stuck in with our ultimate Cornwall summer adventure. Don't forget to treat yourself to some of the finest Cornish food whilst you're there. (Highly recommend a pasty or two!). This summer is your chance to experience the best beach camping in the UK.

Isle of Skye

We've got a special wee camping treasure up in the Isle of Skye. It’s one of the most popular places for camping in Scotland, and we couldn't agree more! The out-of-this-world scenery with gorgeous mountains that feel like you're in a movie, stunning beaches, and did someone say Fairy Pools? You'll feel like you've escaped to an enchanted world. This summer is the perfect time (and weather) to experience it! Wanna make it an awesome road trip, camp in style and check out the other hidden treasures of the Scottish highlands, like the home of Nessie? Well, you can live your best life and win a trip with our VW Campervan to make your camping getaway even more special.

Lake District

We know the Lakes have been mentioned time and time again, but hear us out! Cool Camping has done some digging around to find the loveliest non-touristy camp spots on tranquil farms so you can finally enjoy the majestic lakes! Even better, these campsites don't make you feel like you're a camper. You have your own waterfalls and streams and are surrounded by glorious scenery. All you decide is which of the relaxing walks you want to take or get your hiking boots on to climb Scafell Pike, the highest peak in England! Whatever your dream adventure is, relaxing in the lakes feels romantic and offers some of the best British natural beauty. If Beatrix Potter and many more authors were inspired by the Lakes, then you've gotta head on down! Who knows, maybe you'll get your creative on whilst you're there!

It's so cool that you can win a free UK holiday with Cool Camping, so you have no excuses now. Go on, get that tent out and have the best summer ever!
