Pitch your tent in the air, above the forest floor and away from critters and potential predators, with Tentsile , “the world’s most versatile tent.” The portable tent-hammock hybrid can be used in nearly any environment, anchored to trees in the heart of a forest, hovering over shifting beach sands, pitched above the plains for a brief respite on a safari, or even suspended over disaster and flood zones. Handmade in the UK, the tents are fire retardant as well as UV and water resistant. They are comprised of layered fabric and polyester fabric infill panels, with a insect mesh sandwiched in between to trap all invading pesks.
