Key Benefits or Features
Quick Pitching with Air Technology
Many of our 3 man air tents use inflatable beams instead of poles, allowing you to pitch in minutes with minimal effort. These models are ideal for short breaks or when you want a straightforward setup after a long journey.
Durable Materials
Our 3 man tents are made from strong, weather-resistant fabrics designed to stand up to the unpredictable UK climate. Features such as waterproof flysheets, fully taped seams, and robust groundsheets help ensure reliable protection from the elements.
Space and Comfort
Despite their compact size, these tents are designed to maximise usable space. Many models feature small porches or storage areas, ideal for keeping gear dry and organised. Ventilation panels and darkened bedrooms also improve comfort during warmer weather or early mornings.

3 Man Tent FAQs
What is a 3 man tent?
A 3 man tent is designed to sleep up to three people. It usually offers extra space compared to a 2 man tent, making it a good option for two people wanting more room for gear or comfort.
Is a 3 man tent big enough for three adults?
It can fit three adults, but it will be a tight squeeze, especially with kit. We recommend using a 3 man tent for two people to allow extra space for rucksacks or airbeds.
Can you stand up in a 3 man tent?
Most 3 man tents are low profile, designed for sitting or lying down. Some larger, dome-style models may offer enough headroom to kneel or stand comfortably.
Are 3 man tents good for backpacking?
Lightweight 3 man tents can be great for backpacking if you want more space or are camping with a partner. Just check the packed weight and size to make sure it’s manageable.
How easy is it to pitch a 3 man tent?
Most 3 man tents are simple to pitch, often using colour-coded poles or a quick-inflation system. Two people can usually put one up in under 10 minutes.
