How many different sizes of glamping tents do you offer?

We offer two sizes of big StarShade luxury marquees.

When two marquees of the same size are hired and joined together, the capacity is doubled.

Can I rent additional items with the bell tent or marquee?

Along with the bell tent itself and the inclusions of your chosen glamping package, you can also hire additional items such as extra air mattresses, guest towels and welcome baskets. Even festoon lighting and colour wave lighting is available.

What services are included with the tents and marquees?
