Just in time for the May Bank Holiday, get ready to enter a world of make-believe with Holiday Inn® and its signature Glamp Inn experience. With the kids (and kids at heart!) at home, it's easy to recreate the magic of Glamp Inn with everyday items around the home, some help from the kids and a little imagination.

As one of the leading hotel brands for families and known for its much-loved Kids Stay and Eat free® programme, Holiday Inn designed the below at home activity to help families reconnect with some child-like fun.

The concept was launched in Australia last year, where families were able to book a package across select hotels including Holiday Inn® Melbourne on Flinders and Holiday Inn® Potts Point.

See below some tips and tricks to make your own Glamp Inn experience at home.

Step 1: Choose a colour palette. You can get creative with what you have in the home, or, if you want to replicate one of the Holiday Glamp Inn looks, sift through the prepared looks created in partnership with Temple & Webster – an Australian homewares store (see photo selection)

Step 2: If you're lucky to have a garden, or we're enjoying a sunny day, set your Glamp Inn up outside. Alternatively, find a cosy spot indoors. Holiday Inn recommends finding a leafy tree near the large windows to recreate a 'treehouse' effect. Or, gather house plants into a corner of a room and start setting the scene for an indoor 'outdoor' experience. This is where you'll set up camp!

Step 3: Gather your Glamp Inn items. Ideally, you'll need some pillows and cushions; a thick blanket; soft toys; your favourite books; a throw rug.

Step 4: Start with the rug to create your base. Circular rugs work best, but any will do.

Step 5: If you've got a tee-pee (great!) you've got a big head start. If not, you can create one using a large cotton sheet (funky designs preferred) as the canopy and recreate using sticks or poles using a suitable space. This may be draped over a dining table, desk or sturdy area. Be sure to ask an adult first.

Step 6: Now it's the fun part! Gather up your items from step 3 and start to decorate your space. Scatter the pillows inside along with the soft toys and cosy rugs to create a comfortable space. Fill with your favourite books or activities for the coolest hangout!
