StyleNest round up the coolest play tents for kids to pop up in your garden or on the beach this summer.
Camping, or glamping as we prefer here at StyleNest is the coolest way to holiday this summer. So whether you’re off to the countryside or turning your garden into a mini Glastonbury you’re going to need a tent. From quirky watermelon prints to retro campervans these tents are perfect for injecting some colour into your campsite and they’re much easier to find in the dark than your standard khaki two-man.
For the kids, there are plenty of fun beach tents, garden tents and popup playhouses on offer. From scary sharks to Wild West wigwams, these play tents for kids are perfect whether your little ones are shielding from the sun or sheltering from the rain.
