Unique Dome Garden Offers an Unforgettable Eco “Glamping” Adventure Just 2 Hours from London

Some people like to rough it when they go on vacation and others only want five star service, but most people probably prefer something that bridges the two extremes. For the less intrepid adventurer, <a href="http://domegarden.co.uk/dome_garden.php">The Dome Garden</a> nestled in the lush Forest of Dean offers nature immersion that also includes some of the creature comforts of home. Located just 2 hours outside of London, this <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camping">"glamping"</a> spot is an earth-friendly destination that can be enjoyed year round thanks to super-insulated domes, a wood burner in each unit fired up with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_building">locally-sourced materials</a>, and an en suite bathroom that makes it unnecessary to brave inclement weather for that early morning visit to the loo!

The Dome Garden is only 2 hours from London

Visitors can enjoy a "glamping" trip year-round

There are 10 domes that come in 4 different sizes

They are super insulated, such that they don't require too much energy to keep them warm

Framing is done in coppiced ash or galvanized steel and then the dome is wrapped in watertight PVC

Each dome has an en suite bathroom with a toilet and a shower

All of the timber on site was sourced locally and sustainably

A woodburner keeps the domes warm

Excess heat is fed back into a recycled glass box at the base which keeps the domes warm overnight

Rainwater is harvested and used to irrigate the verdant garden

All of the amenities are included - even fresh eggs!

Cooking is done on a rocket stove that uses very little wood

There are numerous hiking, biking, and canoeing opportunities nearby - enough to stay entertained for at least a week.
