Dan Yates, Managing Director and Founder of Pitchup.com said: “It is inevitable that the most popular locations for outdoor holidays are in some of the UK’s most outstanding natural landscapes and it is in no one’s interest to see these degrade. That’s why we work closely with our pop-up partners to minimise environmental harm by providing them with relevant information on regulations and guidelines for the setup and operation of their sites. We are also committed to helping our customers to protect natural environments, while reaping the benefits of the great outdoors, directing them to the Countryside Code as soon as their trip is confirmed.”
Serotonin boost
Immersion in nature counters the impact of online and urban living as it helps to calm the brain, and even increases the production of serotonin, known as the ‘happy chemical’ which helps to maintain a balanced and positive mood.
A good serotonin boost can also improve focus and concentration levels, lower levels of anger and anxiety, and promote higher confidence and self-esteem. So, if you are lacking these feel-good hormones, start planning a trip to nature ASAP.
Endorphin increase
On a camping trip, it is likely you will naturally do more exercise such as walking or hiking. Campsites near the coast, mountains or forests are a great option if you fancy a more active trip.
