Hi guys,

I know this has been covered numerous times, but...

Carpets for a 4m Bell Tent ?
Can't consider coir due to bulk. I know rag rugs are popular, but keen to explore other options.
Are there any 'out of the bag' tent carpets that would fit a 4m Bell ?
For instance, I saw a Hi Gear Voyager 6 Carpet on ebay which looked like it would've fit, but missed out.
Not too worried if it's not a perfect fit, but would like something that goes up near to the edges.
Keen to hear peoples comments/recommendations.
Thanks in advance

we used a Gelert Seabury 8 carpet which was hexagon shaped and needed some of the edges folding under as was too big for the 4m Bell tent. It was also a bit of a faff lifting the centre pole to put the carpet under and slide it across the floor into place.

We now only use a couple of picnic rugs under the beds and a large rug in the living area as it's only furniture that is at the edges of the tent. A couple of these would cover most of the floor space at 140cm x 290cm:

They also come with a mat approx 50cm square so could be used for bare spots, I personally use a household door mat at the door which should also hold the tent carpet in place as lightweight tent carpet has a tendency to slide about a bit.
