2021 discover Tent Hire , Our Family Team Creating Camping Adventures

With Summer of 2020 being a little not quite as we expected , we worked hard to ensure that we were still able to offer our Tent Hire Service .  It took a little time , to make sure we had everything in place to keep everyone safe , but we finally got clearance from our insurance company during July.  And were delighted to be able to offer Tent Hire for the last few months of the season. 

We are looking forward to a busy 2021 season. We'll also be celebrating 10 years of Tent Hire with very fond memories of our first 'tentative' no pun intended :) year at a much loved event! 

For the 2021 Season ....We have introduced our Safe hands booking policy  just in case things are still a little unsettled still. Your booking is in completely safe hands ... If you need to cancel for any COVID related reason or due to local or national restrictions we will be issuing a full refund of any payments received.

Why we started our tent hire service .... Being  family campers ourselves  we understand that trying camping may be a little daunting ... will everyone sleep ... will we like it ... how much will it cost.... So we launched our Tent hire Service, giving families a great way to try camping without the initial what can sometimes be a costly investment and to make sure everyone is enjoys.... not that we think there is any doubt :) 

As we took a look at the service we decided we wanted to go a little further and  introduced Try Before You Buy if you do love camping and decide to buy a tent , we're more than happy to deduct your daily hire charges from the price of your new tent - A great way to try before you buy too! 

I'd like to try camping in the back garden..... #Gardamping 

Inspired by Summer 2020... if you  would love to try a little #gardamping or back garden camping .... we're reducing our minimum hire period to 2 days so you can enjoy an overnight camp out in your back garden , a great place to try camping for the first time too!  The perfect opportunity to engage little ones in nature close to home. 

 Where do I get my hire tent from , you are more than welcome to come and collect your hire tent from us  @ IBEX Camping in Little Paxton , Cambridgeshire  or we can deliver to your home address or campsite address too!  

 I've never pitched a tent before, your tent will come with a full set of instructions. If your collecting in person we talk you through the pitching of your tent and answer any questions you may have. If we're delivering we are more than happy to answer any questions , our team will always ensure that your hire tent meets your requirements ... we're always on the end of the phone to offer advice. 

We can pitch too.....  We have missed pitching tents this summer and are really looking forward to resuming our pitching service in 2021 , our experienced family team are able to pitch locally within a 40 mile radius or a little further afield for group bookings or weddings , events etc ... 

As the years have gone buy we have adapted our tent hire service to suit all camping adventures  so whether you’re planning your first camping trip with the family, a group get together, wedding, and sporting event or anything else we'd be more than happy to pop together a bespoke quotation for you.

Why hire a tent....  Our hire tents set off on their camping adventures for many reasons , new campers wanting to try before they buy , campers who don't want to store the tent and equipment , family groups so everyone can enjoy the camping experience as well as group bookings or weddings , sporting events and many more ...Finally but by no means least is a world where we are all trying to be careful about our choices and help save the environment , Hiring a tent is a great way to help a little by  not having unused tents and equipment stored and then disposed of.

When will my tent be pitched? A little closer to NewWine we'll be in touch to take the details of your Village Hosts , we'll then liaise with them directly to make sure your tent is perfectly pitched. We usually pop over to Peterborough a few days before your start date. 

What about Covid? hopefully things will be a little more settled next summer , but if not we are operating a COVID safe booking policy , we'll refund any payments received  if you need to cancel due to  Local/National Lockdowns , COVID symptoms or the cancellation of New Wine due to COVID restrictions.

Year 6 Residential 2021 - Can we help?

As we start the new school year we have been approached by a few schools looking to create a residential experience for their year six pupils. Everyone remembers their year 6 Residential , very often being a chance to experience something new or even the first time staying away from the Family Home. So we've popped our thinking caps on and have created a package just for schools. Our idea is based around Bell Tents , these offer something a little different and a new experience to the family camping children may have enjoyed with their families. 

Our Bell Tents are available in 2 sizes , sleeping up to 6. Made from Canvas our Bell Tents offer a unique camping experience which combined with some wild camping or bushcraft activities will offer a unique and memorable Onsite Residential Camping Experience. 

We can offer the tents on a supply only basis or we can send our team to pitch too!

Over the winter months we'll also be adding a Stretch tent to our hire range, specifically with schools in mind , this will offer a communal space for your outdoor challenges and activities. 

We'll only be charging for the days you use the tents , allowing you to socially distance and leave to quarantine for a little while,  if your school has more than one group to create an experience for. 

Need a few extras? we are more than happy to offer discounted prices on sleeping mats or sleeping bags for your parents , we'll choose mats and sleeping bags that will be useful for DofE too so will have a further use for years to come. 

COVID safe booking , Secure your booking with just a 10% Fully refundable deposit with the balance to pay 7 days prior to your booking. 

We'd love to chat if you think we may be able to help , we have a range of products that are great for creating a true bushcraft experience , or if your short of ideas we have a few too!  Give us a call 01480 404030 or chat online via the website

Why Buy when you Can Hire a Tent?

That may seem like a daft question from a Tent Retailer ... but here at IBEX Camping we have tried to create the best of both worlds. Now in our 5th Season we introduced our Tent & Camping Equipment service to fill a gap left by another supplier at a local event , tentatively (pardon the pun!) dipping our toes in the water in the first year... we have continued to grow this service year on year adding more tents and camping equipment as the seasons have gone by.


We are now delighted to be able to offer a range of Family, weekend & Backpacking Tents to hire from just £3.99 per day put together with a selection from our comprehensive Hire Camping equipment and you can create your perfect family Camping Holiday with little fuss & at a price we hope you'll agree is really great value.

The Team @ IBEX Camping attend many events during the Spring & Summer Months offering a ready pitched Tent Hire service alongside our Onsite Mobile Camping Shop. .... Pitching the tents ourselves means that we carefully select our Hire Tents for maximum comfort and easy of pitch meaning that you shouldn't have any problems either ... if you need a little assistance , knowing the tents we are just at the end of the phone to talk you through!

Why the best of both worlds? well buying a family Tent can be a large investment , having purchased many Family Tents for our own family camping we also appreciate that it can sometimes be a little tricky to work out which one would suit best .... so if you hire your tent first and then decide to buy a new one we'll deduct the daily hire cost of the tent from the price of the new one! A great way to Try before you buy!

Why Hire a tent rather than buy? we have many customers who hire for many different reasons , lack of storage space , not avid campers but like to camp during the summer & growing Families who perhaps want to save the investment in the large Family Tent until the Children have grown a little. Hiring gives you flexibility and variety.

Planning a family event , school trip , wedding or just a get together? we are more than happy to quote for a fully delivered , Pitched & Collected service ... leaving you to relax and enjoy.
