The Bell Tent Boutique 4m 285gsm Stove Hole Bell Tent is made from 100% natural unbleached cotton canvas. This medium-weight fabric stays warm in cold weather and cool in heat. It's virtually condensation-free compared to synthetic tents.
The 540gsm PVC groundsheet zips in for a dry, insulated floor. A Kevlar stove hole lets you run a stove safely inside, with a Proban canvas flap to cover it when not in use. Wind rated to 35 mph, the tent also resists mould, mildew and UV damage.
Setup takes around 15 minutes thanks to spring-loaded poles and steel easy-lock tensioners. YKK anti-rust zips and mesh panels on doors and windows add durability and ventilation.
The 4m bell tent suits 2 people comfortably for glamping with a double bed and furniture. For camping with sleeping bags only, it can fit more people, though exact numbers depend on how much gear you bring. Larger sizes in the Bell Tent Boutique range (like the 5m) suit bigger groups of up to 10.
Yes. This tent comes with a StoveMate Kevlar stove hole made from 300gsm woven Kevlar fabric reinforced with Dupont Kevlar yarn. It's designed to handle the heat from a stove flue safely. When you're not using a stove, a 360gsm Proban canvas flap covers the hole to keep the tent weatherproof.
Around 15 minutes with the Rapidpitch design. The spring-loaded poles snap into place and steel easy-lock tensioners on the guy ropes make tensioning quick. One person can pitch it, though two makes carrying the tent easier given its 50kg weight.
Yes. The canvas has a Hydrostatic Head rating of 4500mm which is a strong waterproof rating for canvas tents. There's also a 10cm flood defence barrier that folds up at the tent's edges to stop water getting in during heavy rain or on wet ground.
You get 12 apron pin pegs, 12 groundsheet rock pegs, 12 heavy duty rebar pegs for guy ropes, 12 reflective guy ropes with steel easy-lock tensioners, 3 canvas carry bags, 1 centre pole, 1 A-frame, a spares and repair kit and the StoveMate Kevlar stove hole with its Proban canvas flap.
The manufacturer recommends dry cleaning only. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents which can strip the canvas's natural weatherproofing. If bird mess or dirt gets on the canvas, most can be removed with water and a cloth as one buyer found after camping in a garden with pigeons nearby.
It comes with a 24-month warranty. Note the warranty doesn't cover poles or zippers, so check these parts regularly and handle them carefully, particularly the entrance zip which some buyers found tricky to reconnect if pulled too far back.
You need around 7 metres of clear space. The tent's floor is 480cm by 480cm with a wall height of 60cm and maximum height of 300cm at the centre pole. Factor in extra space around the sides for guy ropes and tensioners.
