LUNA tent in national park

National Parks: A guide on how to plan a camping trip to a National Park

Labor Day weekend is almost here, and if you're like me, you're looking for a fun way to celebrate the end of summer. I'm not normally a fan of crowds—I'd much rather spend time alone in the woods under the stars than at a crowded beach or park.

Tentsile Perfect Pitch

The Perfect Pitch: Finding The Right Trees for Your Tree Tent or Hammock

Tentsile invented Tree Tents so you can expand your appreciation of trees. Plus, camping suspended off the ground, as any Tentsile fan will know, offers supreme comfort. And setting up a tree tent or hammock isn’t as hard as you might at first expect. As with all tents, it takes time to get to grips with how to perfect their set-up and a Tentsile is no different.

Accessorising your Tentsile Basecamp

Accessorising your Tentsile Basecamp

What’s so great about our tree tents and hammocks is, they’re modular – you can build them up (or down) and accessorise to make the most of all their features.

Stacks of Versatility

Stacks of Versatility

All Tentsile Tree Tents have been designed to be multifunctional. You can use them in the trees to create a suspended tent, or on the ground just like a traditional tent, but you can also use them to create a multi-level campground. This is what we call a ‘stack’, meaning you can add levels to create more sleeping or living space.

It’s Plastic Free July – how to be part of the solution

It’s Plastic Free July – how to be part of the solution

Plastic Free July is a global cause, helping to educate millions of people on plastic pollution and how they help be part of the solution, not the problem.

A world driven by convenience has led to a throw-away culture fuelling a plastic environmental crisis. As the UN puts it ‘our planet is choking on plastic’ and it’s our addiction to single-use plastic which has caused it. We have become over dependant on this man-made material and we must reduce our reliance on plastic in order to help solve the problem.
