Best Glamping Destinations in Europe for 2026
Glamping keeps growing across Europe as travelers look for a way to enjoy nature without giving up a real bed and private bathroom. Here are six destinations where the glamping scene is particularly strong going into 2026.
1. Tuscany, Italy
Rolling hills, vineyards and medieval villages set the scene for safari tents and small wooden lodges, often on working organic farms. Tuscany remains one of the most established glamping regions in Europe, with excellent food and wine on the doorstep.
2. Provence, France
Lavender fields, olive groves and hilltop villages make Provence a natural fit for upscale outdoor stays. Many domaines and vineyards now offer geodesic domes or canvas lodges alongside their wine-tasting experiences.
3. Scottish Highlands, UK
For a wilder, moodier take on glamping: heated wooden pods and cabins with loch or mountain views, often with wood-burning stoves. A great option for shoulder-season trips when the crowds thin out.
4. Algarve, Portugal
Coastal glamping with a warmer climate and a longer season than most of Europe. Expect eco-lodges and tented camps close to cliffside beaches, popular with couples and digital nomads alike.
5. Julian Alps, Slovenia
Slovenia has become one of Europe's fastest-growing glamping markets, combining alpine scenery around Lake Bled with riverside glamping resorts that are noticeably less crowded — and less expensive — than equivalents in Austria or Switzerland.
6. Istria and the Croatian coast
Croatia's long campground tradition is steadily converting toward glamping, with premium tents and mobile homes replacing basic pitches along the Adriatic coast — a strong option for families wanting sea access at a lower price than a hotel.
Wherever you choose, book well ahead for July and August: European glamping supply is still limited relative to peak summer demand.
