This week on the Casual Camping Podcast, Ade and Tim welcome listeners into The Cult of Bell Tents.

What begins as a discussion about canvas and centre poles slowly reveals itself to be something far more committed. From their disciplined military origins to their modern rise as the sacred structure of glamping, bell tents are examined with the reverence they clearly deserve.

Tim speaks openly about his devotion to both the 3-metre and 4-metre bell tent, explaining why once you’ve experienced standing up, fitting a stove, and walking around like a Victorian explorer, there is no going back. Doubt is normal at first. Acceptance comes later.

Ade asks the important questions, mild indoctrination occurs, and by the end it becomes clear: bell tents aren’t just shelters — they’re a lifestyle, a mindset, and possibly a very friendly cult.

All are welcome. Knowledge will be shared. Canvas will be praised.
