Glamping & Lodges

Transform Your Land into a Profitable Glamping Destination

Discover how to diversify your income with SIPS-built luxury glamping pods. Designed for farmers and rural landowners.

Why Glamping? Why Now?

Glamping—’glamorous camping’—is booming across the UK. With more travellers seeking luxury stays in natural settings, rural landowners have a unique opportunity to meet demand. From underused fields to quiet corners of your farm, you can earn a premium income while enhancing your land.

  • Domestic tourism continues to grow

  • Guests are seeking unique, eco-conscious experiences

  • Farms are ideally positioned for tranquil, scenic getaways

Glamping offers low environmental impact and high return. Now is the time to act.

What Makes a Great Glamping Site?

Your land could be perfect for glamping if it meets a few key criteria:

  • Scenic views or countryside setting

  • Good road access and space for parking

  • Access to water, electric, and waste connections

  • Outside major flood zones or with mitigation options

  • Not in conflict with local planning restrictions

A free feasibility consultation can help you determine if your site is suitable.

The Financial Opportunity

Glamping can deliver excellent returns with relatively low setup costs:

  • Example Setup: 4 pods @ £45,000 = £180,000

  • Average nightly rate: £140

  • Occupancy rate: 60%

  • Annual revenue (est.): £153,300

Additional income from dog-friendly fees, local produce hampers, and seasonal events makes the model even more appealing.

Planning Permission

Glamping projects generally require full planning permission. We support you through:

  • Pre-application advice

  • Site layout plans and visuals

  • Flood and drainage reports

  • Liaison with your local planning authority

If you’re located within a National Landscape or near a public right of way, our experience in sensitive rural development is invaluable.

  • High-performance insulation for year-round comfort

  • Ensuite bathrooms, kitchenettes, and mezzanine sleeping areas

  • Dog-friendly, accessible designs

  • Solar and battery upgrade options

  • Recycled and sustainable material sourcing

Real-World Inspiration

We recently completed a feasibility study for a farm near Ripon:

  • £296,000 projected annual revenue

  • 2–3 year estimated payback period

This demonstrates the strength of our method and your earning potential.
