About Me

You have contenders and then you have the Star of the show...The Star Bell is renowned for being strong, stable and striking from every angle. From the breezy, bug-free interior (enabled via the 360° mesh walls) right through to the extended 1m-deep canopy which frames and shades the entrance, this design excels in providing uncompromised outdoor adventure.

Due to its credible resilience, this exclusive design has proven to be a popular pick amongst trade and camping connoisseurs with the highest of expectations. This robust strength is an attribute gained from the arched overhang and webbing strap duo which work together to reduce tripping hazards and redirect rain-pour away from the tent.

At Boutique Camping we know that no two campers' glamping goals can compare, so we've created the Star Bell in over 3 versatile fabrics to choose from. Introducing our Fire Retardant Models, boasting a pre-cut stove hole and flap for effortless setup in the 4m and 5m sizes. For other sizes, you will need to cut the stove hole yourself. Both styles require the purchase of a flashing kit when installing a stove. Use our fabric guide to compare before you camp!

Please Note: The Star Bell Tent is protected by way of worldwide registered design.

Take The Tent Tour

Previously asked by campers, so you don’t have to...

On your first pitch the Star Bell Tent may take up to 25 minutes to erect, however, the more you practice the process the quicker it will become... the experts here have got it down to 7 minutes! Whilst it's not vital, having an extra pair of hands will make pitching the tent easier.
Yes, all breathable fabrics have been treated with a water repelling agent to ensure dry adventures! On your first pitch, or even when practising in the garden, you may want to 'weather' the fabric. Weathering a tent (also known as "seasoning" a tent) is the process of exposing it to water to help seal the fabric and stitching before actual use. This is especially important for cotton and polycotton tents, as their seams often have tiny needle holes from manufacturing. This is not a vital step, for it your predicting your tents adventure to face a heavy downpour, it is advised. The Oxford fabric does not require this as the synthetic fabric is tight and 100% waterproof.
All of our tents are designed to pitched outdoors. We have however seen customers attempt indoor set ups by using weights and various heavy items to to keep the base down and webbing straps attached, but for your saftety and the tents, we do not recommend this.
For models that are polycotton or cotton, yes you can install a wood burning stove in their tent. We recommend doing this in the fire retardant model that comes equipped with a stove hole and flap. Please be advised to get the correct accessories; flashing kit, heat mat, and a carbon monoxide detector.
Webbing straps are thick and heavy-duty, giving your pitch more resilience in high winds. The are also great for when camping with children as they minimise tripping hazards!
Due to interior space we do not make inner tents for our 3m range.

Absolutely gorgeous tent

I absolutely love this tent, it's beautiful, well made, and the porch is amazing

Happy camper
Fabulous tent and excellent service

I purchased the 4m star tent in oxfordlite with dark bedroom and absolutely delighted with it. The finishing details are spot on and have had so many complements from fellow campers. Took me around half an hour to pitch solo and very easy apart from the A frame which was a little tricky initially but once I worked it out it was pretty easy. A little condensation after first night but I forgot to open the vents. Highly recommend this company and tent.

Dogs love it

Get one, treat yourself and your hounds. We love ours. It's absolutely brilliant in heavy downpours because it's comfortably spacious and cosy at the same time. Very calm.

BEST QUALITY EVER!

Wouldn't buy anything else once you see the quality of it. From the sturdy zips, webbing straps and canvas quality it is certainly the best we've seen. Used for the first time last weekend, so quick to put up (and down). Everyone commented on how good it looked. Looking at buying more accessories and can't wait for the next trip.

A beautiful tent! Amazing Service!

The tent is wonderful! Great space to spend your time camping, lots of room, easy to pitch, and lovely once set up.
Unsurprisingly the tent is heavy so make sure your vehicle can get close to your pitch, this makes the tent feel secure and safe!
We had a fantastic time on our first trip and have planned our next already!
On top of the brilliant tent, Boutique Camping's customer service was beyond top notch in sorting delivery issues in a tight timeframe!
Very happy! Thank you!

Everything you would have wanted

I recommend this so much. The bag makes it very carryable, easy to put up and take down, constant compliments at Boomtown over how pretty it is. It accommodated me and two others very easily, including all of our camping gear and trolley. It is well made, has windows the front canopy works well, and everything you need is included. The bell tent bag is even big enough to fit tue bell tent, all poles and pegs plus extra luggage like my yoga mat and sleeping bag too

The 5 metre start bell tent is pretty impressive.
We can fit two king sized airbed in and there is plenty of room for other things. The kids love it.
Could not rate 5 stars as one of the clips on the band that helps the flexi pole has already snapped, so I am a bit disappointed with that. Especially when it is not a cheap purchase.

We just spent a joyful two weeks camping in our new 5m polycotton star bell tent and it was an absolute dream. This is our first canvas tent and felt like a real upgrade from previous polyester style tents with breakable fibreglass poles. It was spacious and cool on the inside and stylish on the outside, make us feel like we had a beautiful home from home camp set up. We love the porch and the look of the tent. And being able to get lots of ventilation in from the side windows or rolling up the sides entirely was great. We had a bit of rain and some gusty winds, but this caused no issues and the tent looked to take it all in it's stride. We opted for the polycotton version to get the compromise between durability and lightweightness/packing down size and feel like this was a great choice. I am excited to go away again in a couple of weeks!

I bought the 5m and 285gsm star bell tent for my holiday and camped in it for four weeks in Eastern Europe. The tent is absolutely gorgeous and I was really pleased with the design and quality of materials used. The tent is spacious and comfortably accommodated two adults and two kids. I love that I could roll up the sides on hot days to keep the temperature down. Also very pleased I chose to get the silver protective cover as it made a huge difference both when it was hot and when it was raining. Next time I would get the fire retardant tent as a wood stove on a cool evening would have been very handy. However, I am very happy with my tent and it was a gorgeous, gorgeous summer holiday.

I am delighted. Put it up for the first time today - on my own for a kid's camp out. It was really quick, straightforward and looks fantastic. So spacious and high. Everything feels really well made. I won't get to sleep in it this time but am really looking forward to trying it out in a few weeks time at a festival.

A great space for a cosy camping trip. Lots of opportunity for decoration to make it more homely. Weathered very well on my trip against heavy rain and winds, even had to camp on a slope and still managed fine.

I am in love with this design! Lived in it for 6 weeks while traveling around the PNW. The 4 meter was large enough to have an XL cot, table, wood stove, & chair with space to move around still. When I didn't need the wood stove I had plenty of space for yoga.

It was easy enough to set up by myself (smaller woman) and I loved the extra porch area that the star bell provides. It creates more protection during the rain if you want to have a door open for air flow and a dry door mat. Also, the way that the rain fly is pulled out with each 'star leg' pulling the water further away from the tent so it doesn't pool next to the tent base. I did opt for the extra rain fly which keeps it cooler in full sun and dryer in heavy rain. I was glad to have it!

If I was keeping it setup longer term I would splurge for a larger tent and the tripod pole. It might be difficult to find ground space while traveling with that larger footprint, hence why I opted for the 4m.

Loved the fact that I could take the vinyl floor off for a deep cleaning after my trip. Also, having the full 360 degree mesh made such a huge difference during the warm weather for air flow.

The product is great - well designed and thought out. Easy to assemble and good quality. Hoping this will be going strong for many years to come. It would have been 5 on price if it included the base protector and did not have this as an optional extra. Also a 5 on customer service if there had been a response to my request that they contact me to let me know when the base protector would be in stock... no response to that to date.

Clinker tent, good quality material (i went for the fire retardant version) and it has already stood up to some pretty severe wind and rain in good old sunny Northern Ireland (sans sun).
Kids love it, wife loves it and I love it. Handy enough to put up also. I had it pitched with all the additional gear (beds, mats, stove, lights, etc etc) set up within an hour on the first attempt. Im confident I could shave a fair bit of time off this on future runs now that I have a better understanding of the process.

I went for the 5m version which is plenty big enough for the wife and I along with our 3 x young kids (and all the kit). It is big so we will find out how it fairs out with camp sites and pitch plots in 2 weeks time.
