Our 6m, Six Person Tent
With a diameter of 6m and floor space of 28.25m², the Sibley 600 Ultimate is a serious tent for a serious camper. Use it as a six person tent comfortably, or up to 12 campers on sleeping pads.
The Sibley 600 is also a favourite for glamper's, being able to fit glamping furniture in a range of different configurations. You can easily create a dining or hangout area for some friends without even having to pack away your bed. This can be a lifesaver for those boring rainy days where everyone would normally be isolated in their own tent!
At first glance you could worry that a 6m bell tent would be difficult to put up, but it's actually the opposite. Instead of multiple sets of poles going every which way, the bell tent has a single central pole and an A-frame pole for the door - that's it!
To make it even easier for you all our bell tents come with pre-attached guy lines so you don't have to waste time tying them all on.
Ultimate Canvas - our most breathable, waterproof and sustainable canvas
Different cotton varietals and maturities have different fibre lengths. We use only long fibre cotton because it is stronger and fewer fibres are needed to spin it into yarn. This means it can be weaved more tightly to create a more waterproof and durable canvas.
CanvasCamp is the only bell tent manufacturer to proudly bear the Seal of Cotton™, which certifies that we use 100% cotton canvas.
Our canvas is then impregnated with biodegradable waterproofing and mould resistance treatments using a thermal bath and heat curing process before manufacturing your tent. This treatment protects the canvas inside and out unlike PU (plastic) coatings which, while being cheaper, are less effective.
PU coatings are also much more susceptible to UV damage from the sun which can cause them to go white, flaky and start to crack. Aside from leaching microplastics into the environment, the failed PU coating eventually makes the tent useless.
Maximum breathability, airflow and insect protection
Canvas is a naturally breathable material - unless it's sprayed with a PU coating. The plastic coating locks in moisture, which causes condensation to form on the inside - we’ve all had this happen to us in a synthetic material tent I’m sure.
Our tents have no PU coating allowing the canvas to breathe and keeping you nice and dry. The sidewalls, windows and door on the 6m bell tent can be rolled up to give maximum airflow. If there are flies or mosquitoes around the mesh walls can be left down for complete insect protection. We also added peak vents at the top improve ventilation, minimising the humidity and keeping you cool in summer.
The innovative bathtub-style floor is water and vapor impenetrable, which keeps you warm and dry every night. It is also fully detachable using a zipper, which makes cleaning a breeze, giving you more time to relax and have fun.
By combining exceptional ventilation and breathable canvas, the six person tent provides you with the best climate possible on the inside of the tent. This ensures that whether you're braving the sweltering heat of summer or the crisp chill of winter, you'll always find an oasis of comfort in your camp.
