Kits Coty Glamping in Aylesford, Kent, has been recognized as one of the best glamping sites in England, securing silver in VisitEngland’s Camping, Glamping and Holiday Park of the Year.
Kits Coty Glamping features a variety of accommodations, including bell tents, a shepherd’s hut, and a woodland cabin. Each unit is designed with themes such as African-inspired bell tents and woodland retreats, ensuring a unique stay for every guest.
Owners Ami and Mark Culver expressed their joy about the recent award, emphasizing the chance for guests to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and enjoy the serene accommodations and surroundings at Kits Coty Glamping.
“It’s a huge achievement for a small family-run business and means the absolute world,” they said, as reported by Kent Live on June 21.
According to its website, Kits Coty Glamping offers a range of amenities to ensure comfort and convenience. Guests can enjoy a shower cabin with underfloor heating, free toiletries, wet rooms, and a washing-up area. Each accommodation has a fridge, freezer, microwave, hairdryers, and cooking essentials.
The Snug, a communal indoor area, provides a cozy space for guests to relax with leather sofas, books, indoor games, a dining table, and chairs. There is also an outdoor fire pit area for larger gatherings, making it an ideal spot for socializing.
For families with children, the site includes a play area for those under 12 and a petanque court. The secure location, away from main roads, allows children the freedom to explore safely, adding to the site’s appeal for families.
Another aspect of the glamping site is diverse accommodations. Guests can choose from the Pamela shepherd’s hut, the Marrakesh Moroccan-themed bell tent, the Mamadou African-themed bell tent, the Festival Tent, or the Gretel Woodland Retreat. Each unit is equipped with Egyptian cotton bed linen, blankets, hot water bottles, heaters, and free Wi-Fi.
Pamela is a vintage-inspired shepherd’s hut with shabby chic furnishings and soft pastel shades. Renovated for the 2023 season, Pamela features a full-sized double bed, a fold-away table and chairs, ample storage, and a log-effect electric heater to ensure a cozy stay.
In addition, Mamadou is decorated with dark woods, crisp white linens, and subtle hints of Africa. The bell tent includes a four-poster bed under a canopy of white fairy lights and can accommodate two adults, with an option for a small child at an additional cost.
The tent has main power, and outside, torches, lanterns, and candles create an atmosphere reminiscent of the African plains.
Kits Coty Glamping has been recognized with several awards, including the Tourism South East’s Glamping Business of the Year Award for 2023/2024 and the Gold for Best Glamping Business in The Beautiful South Awards of Excellence for four consecutive years.
