The sun is shining (sometimes) and the school holidays are around the corner - which only means one thing. It's time to get the tent out of the attic, head outdoors and enjoy the fresh air on a camping trip.

From coastal retreats to hillside hideouts to family friendly campsites we asked theThe National Trust to tell us the best places to pitch a tent around the UK this summer.

Whether you want to make the most of the great outdoors on an action packed trip or simply relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside, there is something for everyone.

Even if you don't fancy the hassle of pitching a tent, you can always glamp it out in a Wigwam at Clumber Park or in a camping pod at Wasdale Head.

Take a look at the gallery of Britain's best camping spots for summer 2014 below for some unique holiday ideas.
