Hello and thanks for buying one of our Bell Tents. 
Here is the best way to put up your Bell Tent.  
One person is shown doing this but the more people there are, the faster it goes 
up. (Our current record is 10 mins for a Standard 4 metre) 
If you look at the bottom of this document you will see a list of tips to help you get 
years of use out of your tent but the golden rule is: 

ALWAYS, WITHOUT FAIL, STORE YOUR BELL TENT BONE DRY OR YOU 
RUN THE RISK OF GETTING A MOULDY TENT!  

 
Enjoy! And please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any more questions, 
good ideas on better ways of bell tenting or just to send in pictures of you 
Camping with Soul for the gallery on the site. 
 

Putting up a Standard Bell Tent  

 

1) Unpack the bell tent 

   

 
2) Lay out the ground sheet and find the slightly longer 
side which is where the door goes. Rotate the ground 
sheet so the door is facing the desired direction and pin 
it down tightly with the smallest set of pegs  
 
3) Make sure door is zipped shut and lift the 
canvas onto the ground sheet. Line up the  
tent’s door zip with the middle of the longest 
side of the groundsheet.
