GLAMPSITES<br />
PRODUCT IN FOCUS<br />
Site Facilities<br />
Real life examples of products<br />
adding amenity value for glampers<br />
experience for guests. We’ve included<br />
the same high-end control systems that<br />
operate our barrel hot tubs for reliability<br />
and ease of use, UV systems for safe water<br />
and Bluetooth compatible speakers for<br />
music - and they look fantastic!<br />
Feedback: Kate said: “I am so pleased<br />
that we opted for the electric hot tub -<br />
the costs to purchase and run it are very<br />
similar to the wood fired tubs but every<br />
time we put pictures of the Riviera hot<br />
tub on social media we get a flurry of<br />
bookings, and it has helped our whole<br />
site attract significantly more guests this<br />
year.<br />
“Robin and his team have been a<br />
pleasure to work with from start to finish;<br />
fast, responsive and have delivered a<br />
quality product. My guests absolutely<br />
love it and I am looking forward to finally<br />
getting the chance to try it myself this<br />
winter, as it has been fully booked since<br />
the day we installed it in March!”<br />

Glampsite: Brownscombe Luxury<br />
Glamping, Devon<br />
Description: A luxury glampsite<br />
comprising four safari tents, a<br />
‘Tabernacle’ and a bespoke cabin close<br />
to Dartmouth in South Devon<br />
Products used: Electric cedar clad<br />
acrylic hot tub<br />
Details: Kate Tregoning asked us to<br />
visit Brownscombe to look at Riviera<br />
Hot Tubs supplying a cedar wood barrel<br />
hot tub with a wood burning stove<br />
to sit next to one of their new safari<br />
tents. There are several wood burning<br />
hot tubs at the farm, not supplied by<br />
Riviera.<br />
Kate believed that the wood burning<br />
hot tubs were the only option for the<br />
safari tents due to the turnaround<br />
times for emptying and re-heating<br />
them between guests, so she was<br />
very interested to hear about our<br />
new acrylic range clad in cedar, tailor<br />
made for the glamping/rental market.<br />
Designed to be hard wearing, superefficient<br />
on power consumption (with<br />
excellent heat insulation and fast<br />
heating times for client changeovers),<br />
they offer an exciting bathing<br />
