FAQ

We created the much-copied Ultimate Bell Tent in 2009, and it remains our best-selling style. Customers loved the Deluxe but missed the unique selling point of a Bell Tent, which is rolling the walls up. So, we developed the Ultimate with a zipped-in, heavy-duty groundsheet - a flexible tent offering you the best of both worlds!

Versatile heavy-duty zipped-in groundsheet

A robust zip circumnavigates the whole tent 10cm off the ground to create a "bath-tub" effect for extra assurance against flooding. This heavy-duty zip secures the groundsheet to the canvas and is hidden from the elements by a canvas flap. Keep it zipped for all the security of an integrated, heavy-duty groundsheet or unzip, roll up part or all of the walls and let the breeze blow through on lazy summer days.

An ideal glamping Bell Tent for four

The classic Bell Tent profile, soft coloured natural cotton canvas - this is an ideal glamping tent for four. Fits two queen-size mattresses and bedding, tea light chandeliers and rugs. Install a cosy stove and relax in a really special home from home! Our extensive range of accessories will create a really luxurious, memorable space.

The perfect camping tent for a young family of four

Our 4-metre Bell Tents have ample space for a young family of four with all of their kit.

10 years and still going strong!

I bought this tent 10 years ago now and it's still in fantastic condition!
It is my pride and joy; I take to a few music festivals and several camping trips each year. It's so easy to set up, even by yourself. It's always a show piece at music festivals and has enough space to house a soggy group of friends if the rain gets particularly bad, or even if everyone's too sunburnt.

I prefer the bell tent over polyester tents as it stays cooler and the added bonus of being able to unzip the base is so useful on really hot days.

I have a plan to install a stove at some point to extend our camping season, but I haven't gotten over the idea of having to cut into it yet.

Obviously canvas tents need maintenance but I've only had to reproof it twice and I've just upgraded to glow in the dark guy lines. Here's hoping I get another 10+ years out of it.

Additionally I just contacted belltent.co.uk as a few of my A frame springs have snapped now and they're sending them to me free of charge.

Fantastic tent, amazing customer service, could not recommend enough!!

Hello Laura and thanks for your kind words.
Let us know how you get on with fitting the replacment A frame springs.
Cheers

Tent envy…

Just back from a trip to France in this beauty. Admiring looks from the rest of the campsite, huge internal space made our stay luxurious, so easy to pitch…we had to move pitches during our stay which I wasn’t looking forward to but it was a breeze with this tent. I can’t wait for our next trip! There was a slight issue with one of the poles when it arrived which was remedied within days as our trip was imminent…outstanding customer service…highly recommend this tent and this small company.

SpaceCadet!

As a family of four I have to say there is an amazing amount of space inside the tent, it
easily coped with our mountains of kit and caboodle. The mesh widows very handy for
keeping bugs out. A great sturdy tent and excellent quality!

Wonderful tent!

I bought my bell tent from Belltent.co.uk way back in 2010 and it's still going strong 12 years later which tells you something about the quality. I absolutely love it - so easy to pitch and such a beauty. I fitted a flashing kit for a stove and have used it through all seasons. The groundsheet is thick and robust, far better than any groundsheet I've come across in any other tent. Lots of great memories now associated with this tent.
