THE SIDES
Our Sailcloth tents come with a combination of clear and solid sides. There is a set amount but if stock allows you can change it. All sides are in panels and can be rolled up individually, so you can choose which are up and which are down.

WHAT IT COMES WITH
All our Sailcloth tents come with matting and interior fairy lights as standard.

ADD ONS
A popular choice is to add a walkway package (matting with festoons lights on Shepherd hooks) that lead to the entrance of the marquee.

You can add festoons or more fairy lights for that enchanting evening ambiance, or anything you need from our furniture range.

Our team will help you with a floorplan and work out exactly what you need.
