Delegates attending events at the National Exhibition Centre
(NEC) can get closer to nature with a stay at the new AvantGlamp site.
Located in a private wooded area on the edge of Pendigo Lake,
and just a three-minute walk from the
NEC, bp pulse LIVE, and Resorts World, the new glamping site offers
accommodation options for eventgoers and business travellers.
The AvantGlamp resort will be delivered in phases. Upon completion, the resort will feature 59 architecturally designed pods: 12
Overwater Suites with private terraces suspended above Pendigo Lake, one
exclusive Presidential Suite complete with its own private hot tub and
overwater terrace, and 46 Woodland Bungalows thoughtfully nestled among the
trees. Guests will have the option to choose between double or twin room
layouts throughout the resort, making it ideal for couples, colleagues, and
friends alike.
Each pod has promised to deliver ‘hotel-level comfort while
immersing guests in the natural surroundings’.
As part of its first phase launch, AvantGlamp is unveiling
11 pods - self-contained units that combine the charm of nature with the
comfort of a boutique hotel. These pods are fully insulated and equipped with
modern amenities, plush beds, private bathrooms with high-end toiletries,
heating and air conditioning, Nespresso coffee machines, and smart TVs and
Bluetooth speakers.

overwater terrace and outdoor seating

Calum MacLeod, founder of AvantGlamp, said: “Five
years ago, this was just a dream to create something truly special and now,
seeing it come to life is a really proud moment for us all.
“We’ve worked hard to build an experience that feels like a
unique hideaway, while still being right next to everything the NEC has to
offer. We can’t wait for guests to experience it for themselves!”
Sarah Harvey, chief development officer at the NEC Group,
said: “We’re really excited to welcome AvantGlamp to the NEC. The pods look
fantastic and will offer our visitors a truly elevated stay, whether they’re
here for a concert, an exhibition, or any of our live experiences.”
