I'd love a different carpet for the bell as I really don't like the coir. It looks ok but feels horrible and sheds worse than the dog! I think they are supposed to be very good if you have a stove but they're a bit too rustic for my tastes!

If I can find something else I'll probably eBay the coir as it takes up a lot of storage room too.

I have the gelert seabury 8 carpet which is a hexagon and supposedly measures 370cm x 430cm but I've always had to fold all the edges under with the 4m bell tent. Its not the best colour hence I take along a rug to cover it up and have a harder wearing area in the living area, it is lovely and cosy under foot.

This was taken last year the first time we used the 4m bell tent so a bit unorganised (and the electric is always velcroed to the underside of a table now) but shows the gelert carpet, our rug and the sheepskin rug which now goes between the beds

They had a sale on a few weeks ago & I ended up ordering early as well. I think of I've saved money on my tent & can now use the money to buy more pretty things for my tent.
