JOURNAL
Hi there, thanks for stopping by.
I’m Lucy, a 34 year old glamping extraordinaire, dog mama to Morris, our Boston Terrier pooch, mama to Indy-Moon, our daughter, and wife to Tristan. The most wonderful human I know. Together we co-founded Lulubells, and with some help from our friends, we have spent the past five years creating tented villages for festival brides all over the UK.
On this page you will find; stories from the road, things we like, places we’ve been and people we’ve met. All of which we hope will inspire your next glamping trip, festival wedding or outdoor party. So what are you waiting for, grab a cuppa and enjoy the read.
