Why Choose a Bell Tent for Glamping?
With a high-quality canvas bell tent, glamping becomes a breeze. Whether you’re heading to your favourite music festival or getting off-grid and sightseeing with the family, a bell tent has a wide range of benefits that make it better for that extra bit of luxury.
Spacious and Comfy
Our bell tents provide luxury and space, with enough headroom to comfortably stand up straight. Even in our smallest 3m models, you’ll be able to lay down and stretch out without feeling cramped and you’ll have enough floor space for you and all your essentials plus those extra glamping comforts like furniture.
Enjoy All Year Round
Many tents fail to keep you dry in wet weather and warm in the winter months, but bell tents have been specially designed using a range of fabrics for use in all sorts of weather. Bell tents are breathable in the summer to keep you safe and cool in the sun, whilst other models are made from insulating cotton and polycotton to keep the warm in and the cold out. You can even purchase fire retardant bell tents that can be used alongside wood-burning stoves to keep you extra toasty and warm.
Bell tents make for perfect glamping tents that let you enjoy the outdoors whatever the weather.

Weather Resistant
High-quality bell tents will keep you safe and dry whatever the weather. You can enjoy a trip in the rain without worrying about soggy clothes and damp tents with waterproofing and anti-rot fabrics. The tee-pee shape of a bell tent also means water and debris can easily slide off your tent. You’ll also be able to enjoy the sun in safety with UV-protective fabric.
Easy Pitching
The worst thing on any camping trip is spending hours trying to pitch a tent. With a bell tent, you can set up quickly and easily even if you’re a campaign novice thanks to the minimal accessories and ropes. You only have a single centre pole and support frame so there’s no faffing working out what goes where and you can set your tent up and start enjoying your trip in no time.

FAQs
How Can You Use a Bell Tent?
A bell tent is the perfect versatile glamping tent that can be used for all sorts of occasions. You can use your tent for the standard camping uses to give you a luxury resting place but you can also use a bell tent to host events like wedding receptions and birthday parties. You can also use these tents as workspaces like yoga studios, tattoo parlours and much more. With such a huge space the possibilities are endless.
What Size Bell Tent Is Right for Me?
Our bell tent range comes in sizes from 3m to 8m and each tent is designed to hold a different number of people. The tent size you opt for is based on what you intend to use the space for and how many people you need to accommodate. We’d say that a 4m tent is ideal for smaller family trips and groups of 4, whilst a larger 6 or 7m tent is perfect for larger groups around 6 who also want to bring their own furniture or glamping accessories for extra comfort.
How Do I Care for a Bell Tent?
If you want your bell tent to last through as many marvellous adventures as possible there are a few tips to consider. Maintain your tent by ensuring it's fully dry before packing it away to avoid issues like the growth of mould and mildew. Be sure to wash your tent when it picks up mud and dirt and reproof it to ensure the waterproof and UV coating is still intact. As with all your valuables, always store your tent in a cool, dry place.
