We hope you like the new glossy cover - which shows off the gorgeous photo from Escape Nomade - one of our featured companies this month. Glamping can be anything you want it to be - a simple cabin in the woods like Tom MacCurrach’s inspirational project on page 32, or a bamboo wonderland supspended from the tree tops such as the architectural geniuses at Nomadic Resorts show us on page 30. Or it can be Airstreams, huts, rare antique caravans, you name it - we have it all this issue. What these different projects share is a passion to create something unique and magical for the guest. Glamping should not be one size fits all. It is a bespoke experience that can only be created in your setting, with your ideas and playing to your strengths. Unfortunately, putting our dreams into practise often involves something much more prosaic - cold hard cash. This issue we look at finance, writing a business plan, crowdfunding, peer-to-peer lending and other options.
