Otta's take on Pitchup.com

Sam Franklin headshot

Sam Franklin

CEO of Otta

It can be difficult to find reliable and secure sites to browse and book campsites and holiday parks, with numerous sites offering incomplete information about the surrounding areas. Pitchup was founded to help users to find somewhere to stay, while at the same time get all the information they could want about local walking routes, pubs, nearby events and the like.

The platform offers over 5000 locations in over 60 countries and has witnessed tremendous growth since its launch in 2009; surpassing the milestone of 25 million nights booked and becoming Europe’s leading site for outdoor accommodation. The company is bootstrapped, but profitable since 2015 - testament to the popularity of the site.

Recently, more outdoor, local holidays, away from popular tourist resorts, have exploded in popularity. Pitchup has been able to take advantage of this, and is now leaning into helping people get away more sustainably, and supporting mental health by improving access to nature.
