Treehouses vs Tree Tents

Treehouses vs Tree Tents

We’ve all daydreamed about building the perfect Treehouse in our backyard – whether it’s for the little ones to play in all year round, or for us adults to escape for a cup of tea and some peace and quiet! As kids, we could imagine nothing better than spending hours in our very own secret backyard treehouse, with only our imaginations and creativity (and a few birds) for company. Getting our parents to build one was a different matter altogether…

With the spring camping season just around the corner, now is a great time to test run your gear and take any necessary steps to refresh and renew your tent before it sees action...

Design and Craftmanship

Design and Craftmanship

The idea comes first, then you hone that until you get all the wrinkles out. It is only after that, you can start perfecting the craftsmanship. A tweak here and a tightening of the details there. It takes a while just like learning how to paint. You can’t hope to get a masterpiece out on your first try. With products, you need to send it out into the world, listen to the feedback, refine it and go again, until everyone’s experience of it is the same. So that’s what we did! We took on our customers’ feedback – good and bad - and used it to develop the range by adding new features.

Gear Check – Plan Ahead and Get Prepared

Gear Check – Plan Ahead and Get Prepared

We’ve all done it - left our gear check until the night before going on a camping trip and then find out something’s broken or missing or remembered that something was supposed to have been fixed after the last time you went out, but you’ve forgotten to do anything about it!

Happy Holidays!

I can’t believe we’ve reached the end of another year – where did that go?! It’s been another great year for Tentsile, and as an independent, family run business, we have our customers, you, to thank for that.

Green Friday – Turning Black Friday Green

Green Friday – Turning Black Friday Green

In the chaos of Black Friday we wanted to remind everyone that you can shop more positively, and how here at Tentsile we invest in worthwhile causes and try to give back where we can. We are an independent, family-owned business who strive to tread more lightly on Earth and encourage everyone else to do the same.

We encourage you all to get out as much as you can and experience the joy of nature as well as spending quality time with friends and family.
