All the bell tents come with a tea light chandelier that provides light. The chandelier is however fixed to the tent and can’t be removed. Therefore, we recommend you bring a torch to give you that extra bit of light at night.

Yes. All our bell tents are top of the range deluxe bell tents meaning they have thick and durable ground sheets that are zipped in to the side of the tent. This ground sheet also has a 3 inch lip at the side to ensure there are no leaks if the tents are pitched on ground that does not drain easily.
All booked bell tents will be fully erected by 2pm on day of booking (unless otherwise arranged due to site access allowances).
Please ensure all of your belongings are removed from the tent by 12pm.
NB. If staying in a campsite, check out time will be an hour before the campsite check out time to provide our team enough time to take down the tent.
No. Unfortunately our insurance policy does not allow us to do this. We do however offer a kitchen essentials basket which includes a single burner camping stove for use outside of the bell tent.
Yes. South Coast Glamping do not get involved in pitch bookings. All bookings should be made direct with campsites. Simply tell South Coast Glamping where and when you need your bell tent(s) to be erected.
