About Me

Designed for adventurous 2-person couples or 4-person groups, the Vela Air Tent aims to maximise comfort and offer a premium, stylish space without the hassle of traditional tent set-up. With its double doors, standout triangular shape and high apex roof, this inflatable glamping tent offers amazing head and floor room without a centre pole restricting your space. 

We think simple can mean better, which is why our Vela Air can be used by campers of any ability. Just attach the included electric pump (UK) to the outer port and you’ll have a fully functioning tent in just a few minutes with no effort required! International orders will instead have a manual pump.

Made from high-quality 175gsm Oxford fabric, this model is super light and easy to carry to and from your campsite. Not only is the Vela lightweight, but it’s also a small and mighty shelter in all weather. Treated with UV, water, mould and rot protection, you’ll be able to stay safe come rain or shine.

Take The Tent Tour

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

The Vela Air Tent is an inflatable tent designed for effortless setup. Just peg it down, connect the manual pump, and it fully inflates in under 10 minutes. No hassle at all! International orders will instead come with a manual pump.
The Vela is ideal for festivals—it’s lightweight, easy to carry, and inflates super quickly, making it a great option for hassle-free, stylish festival camping!
Due to the Vela's small size and non-breathable Oxford material, it’s not safe or suitable for installing a wood-burning stove. We recommend using safe external heating options instead.
Yes, the Vela is crafted from Oxford 175 fabric, a highly waterproof, non-breathable material with a hydrostatic head of 2000mm—perfect for staying dry during heavy rain or damp conditions.
The Vela is compact and best suited for couples or small groups of up to four people. It doesn’t currently support an inner tent, as it's designed for simplicity and space efficiency.
Yes! The Vela's inflatable design makes it easy to pitch indoors, as long as there's enough floor space. It’s a great option for events, sleepovers, or indoor glamping vibes.

Love this tent. It was super easy to put up, once we put our stuff in it was really cosy. I really like that there are openings on both ends, it can cool the tent down quite quickly and just provides extra options. There was a couple small issues with my order but when I contacted the customer support the have been amazing and resolved my problems straight away which included shipping some spare straps. The bag in which the tent comes in has extra room in case the tent didnt fold back to the same size but once we have deflated all it needed was little lining up, folding in three and rolling. Fitted back no problem! All in all I am super satisfied and cant wait for my next camping trip with my Vela tent! ☺️
I also do hope for some line extensions such as some type of awning, rain shelter, maybe a tent space divider?

Wow, second weekend away and a big one. We initially went away for 1 night only just to test and build and it was lovely. This weekend 4 nights Whitby festival . And torrential storm weather winds etc. tent is amazing bine dry windproof to an extent and coped exceptionally well with whatever was thrown at it . We love it and can't wait to get back out. Now what else do we need to make life even more comfortable .....

Putting the tent up and putting it away has never been easier and once up it is a truly pleasant experience to be inside. Only time will tell if the seals continue to work on the inflatable pipes.

Hi Kate, thank you for your wonderful review! We're glad you find the tent easy to set up and enjoy being inside. Fingers crossed the seals hold up well—please reach out if you need any assistance in the future. Happy camping! 😊

Great tent - we immediately put it to the test with some torrential rain and it remained leakproof, except where we’d left one of the ventilation windows open overnight. We also had some really hot sunny weather and the ventilation windows worked well. However, I would say it is a little bit hotter than our old 100% canvas bell tent.

It was easy to put up as well, approximately 20 mins.

Hi Caroline, thanks so much for sharing your experience! We're glad the tent held up well in different weather conditions and that you found it easy to set up. Your feedback about the ventilation and temperature is very helpful. Enjoy your camping adventures!

Love my vela air tent -it is heavy but super easy to set up and really spacious ( I got the smaller of the two sizes ) we have a camper van and so this is just a change of scenery .. set up with bunting and fairy lights , lots of cushions for that bohemian glamping experience - great value although yet to use in rain 😁

Hi there! We're thrilled to hear you love your Vela Air Tent and enjoy your bohemian glamping setup. Hope the rain stays away so you can enjoy it even more! Thanks for choosing Boutique Camping.

Absolutely gorgeous tent

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.

Beautiful spacious perfection!

We are absolutely delighted with the best camping solution for our family of four. Beautiful quality canvas, easy to put up and looking forward to heating up with a log burner in cooler months.

Happy with it just would have preferred a wider door opening for the view. Just trying to get clients now! Thank you

Love It!!!

Honestly this is worth the splurge!
Easy to pop up and down, looks a million dollars and really hardy. Purchased as our old tent was a traditional pole tent, as we are getting older and have back issues we wanted something easier to put up.
The pump it comes with is large so you can sit and pump or stand and pump, it doesn't take long at all infact our 11 year old took over most the pumping and enjoyed getting involved.

Inside it's huge and spacious, it really does feel like a bit of luxury.

Best purchase of the year for us!

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.
