Buying a wall tent? Comfortable camping with extra living space
The first evening in a canvas wall tent feels different from a normal camping trip. Outside, the temperature slowly drops, while inside a lamp glows above a wooden table. A jacket hangs to dry next to the stove and wet shoes stand neatly by the entrance. The tent does not feel like a place to sleep, but like a full living space in the middle of nature.
That is exactly why more and more campers choose a wall tent. At Broer Outdoor, we see these tents on bushcraft weekends, at glamping sites, on family camping trips and on long stays outdoors. Especially if you stay in one place for days or weeks, you notice how much difference extra space and comfort make.
Why choose a canvas wall tent?
A wall tent suits people who want to live well outdoors. Thanks to the straight walls, you have much more usable space than in many other tents. As a result, you can furnish the tent with ease, without it feeling cramped inside. See the Safari wall tent in the shop.

A wall tent feels like a home outdoors
On a long trip, a wall tent soon becomes the heart of the camp. During the day, you cook, sort your gear and rest after a walk. In the evening, it is a warm place where people eat together and share stories. In addition, the canvas keeps the air inside pleasant. Even when the tent is full of beds, tables and gear, the space still feels open. That is why many campers choose a canvas wall tent on purpose instead of a small light tent.
Wall tent with a stove
A big plus of many wall tents is that you can use a wood stove in them. Especially on a cold night and a fresh morning, that makes a big difference. The heat spreads nicely through the tent and creates a cosy feel. Moreover, you can heat water or cook a simple meal on the stove. Also see the tent stoves.
- More comfort in a cold season
- Warmth on a rainy day
- You can cook on it
- A long stay becomes nicer
- A longer season
Wall tent with an inner tent
Many people put an inner tent in their wall tent. Thus you get extra privacy and a tidy sleeping area. Besides, an inner tent holds heat better on a long stay. Especially families and groups value that extra layout. See all tent accessories.
Built for long use outdoors
A wall tent often serves as a fixed base on a trip of several days. Therefore strength and a long life matter. Thanks to the strong canvas, the sturdy poles and the stable build, this tent can handle heavy use in all kinds of weather. In addition, with good care a canvas tent like this lasts for years.
