THROUGH THE LENS: Our latest view through the eyes of our Founder Phil James

It’s camping with the feel of a hotel – but a whole lot more fun. AutoCamp Yosemite offers glamping in Airstream trailers, luxury tents, and couple cabins. Just a 45-minute drive from the entrance to Yosemite National Park, you can hike and chase waterfalls by day, then roast s’mores before falling into cushy beds. 

There’s nothing typical about the accommodations at AutoCamp. Silver Airstream trailers, platform tents, a couple of cabins, and unique accessible suites for guests with disabilities. It’s camping without the work and dirt. Airstreams have everything you need from bathrooms to kitchenettes.

Let’s hope one day we get to visit…

WildTrax offers the discerning traveller a unique experience traversing the Highlands of Scotland in fully kitted out expedition standard Land Rovers with rooftop tents. You can experience the Highlands like never before, venturing into incredible landscapes amongst magnificent mountains, tumbling rivers, colourful rugged moorland, rich sea-lochs and intricate coastlines.

Wildtrax also offer lodges for larger groups. The 12 Scandinavian style lodges provide comfortable self-catering accommodation in a stunning countryside location. Ancarraig Lodges are the ideal base to explore Loch Ness and the surrounding areas. Plus, numerous outdoor pursuits such as fishing, pony trekking, kayaking and hiking all easily accessible.

Four-bedroom 'time capsule’ home that was left untouched since the 1960s with brown leather sofas, wood panelling and blue carpets.

What an absolute find this would be for any Mid-Century fan. A stone's throw from Lake Windermere this house comes complete with the original carpets and drapes and nearly half an acre of land. As fans of anything mid-century, we would love to get our hands on this place. 

We love the open staircase, wooden slats and panelling in nearly every room. Strip back some of the decor and you have the basis of an amazing 60’s home ready to be sympathetically updated. Let’s just hope a developer doesn’t get their hands on it and create a block of ‘Exclusive, luxury apartments for modern living. 

Finding products that we don’t need but want is a favourite pastime for Phil and James.. so here’s one of the latest ‘must haves’… With an equally catchy title…
