Of the 11 campsites within 2.8 miles of the Isle of Wight Challenge, 5 have glamping.
The event's own version of glamping is the inclusive pitch at basecamp: a pre-pitched tent, a roll mat and parking, but no sleeping bag. In 2027 that costs £60 for one person for one night or £80 for both nights, and £75 or £95 for two people. It is the simplest choice for an 8.30am start.
Off-site glamping near Chale gives a supporter a real bed while you walk, or gives you a soft landing after 106km. Check the season first. Warren Hill's bell tents open on 1 May, so they cover the Saturday night only, although its Willow shepherd's hut opens earlier. Sibbecks Farm opens in April and Puckaster Cove all year. Kingates Farm's hut has a hot tub and private sessions in an indoor pool, which helps tired legs. More in our glamping guide.
