Frejus
€399,99 €459,99
Waking up to birdsong and crisp mountain air under canvas is the kind of simplicity we all crave. Fréjus is our spacious, solid-as-a-rock A-frame canvas tent — built for long, lazy summer escapes where comfort and cool shade matter more than grams.
The way camping is meant to feel
-
Breathable organic cotton canvas keeps air flowing and condensation at bay
-
Classic A-frame design is incredibly stable and full of standing space
-
Tough, UV-resistant flysheet lasts up to 4x longer than polyester tents
-
Durable 400D groundsheet and steel poles — made to pitch and stay pitched
Naturally Comfortable Shelter
Fréjus is made with polycotton canvas, a high-performing blend of organic cotton and polyester that’s far more breathable than modern synthetics. It keeps you cool in the heat, warm in the cold, and free from clammy condensation. The air inside stays fresh and dry — even after a day of sun or a night of storms.
A Tent That Stays the Distance
This is proper camping kit — built to last season after season. The canvas flysheet shrugs off UV rays, outlasting standard nylon or polyester fabrics by years. The heavy-duty 400D Oxford PU groundsheet resists tears and abrasion. And the oversized steel poles and pegs bring old-school durability that feels reassuring when the wind gets up.
Stable, Spacious, and Ready to Roam
With its tried-and-tested A-frame structure, Fréjus pitches stable and fast. Once it's up, it’s made to stay up — perfect for longer camps, basecamps, or festival weekends. There’s room to stand, stretch, and stash gear inside. And unlike many modern tents, this one lets the outdoors in, not the damp.
Lower Impact by Design
Fréjus uses organic cotton, reducing water and pesticide use during cultivation. The canvas flysheet is long-lasting and repairable, reducing waste over time. And with fewer synthetic fibres in the tent body, it sheds fewer microplastics into the environment.

Sustainability and Product Care
Before Use
Canvas tents always need ‘weathering in’ before their first use or after a prolonged period of storage. This process seals up any spaces in the canvas weave or the stitching and ensures that your tent is completely waterproof. All you have to do is pitch your tent outside in wet weather or give it a thorough soaking with a hose, allowing the tent to dry fully before packing it away.
Looking After Your Tent
Polycotton canvas is susceptible to mildew if it's not allowed to completely dry out. You must always ensure that your tent is completely dry before packing it away for a prolonged period of time. We use polycotton canvas in our Roundhouse which is faster drying and more resistant to mildew, but still requires the same care.

How It Is Made
Organic Cotton
The Frejus uses 100% organic cotton. Organic cotton farming produces significantly less CO₂, uses less water and eliminates the use of harmful pesticides. And it feels great to camp under!
Gear You'll Love For Longer
We've chosen materials and construction techniques to increase your tent's lifespan and ensures that it will last for years. We've used UV-resistant polycotton canvas, durable 400D Oxford PU for the floor and steel poles and pegs.
Wood
All wooden toggles and fitments are sourced from sustainable sources.

Reducing our carbon footprint
We are carbon neutral under PAS2060 and offset our Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 operations and transport emissions. We recognise that offsetting is not part of the solution but a point to pass through on a journey to Net Zero. Carbon Neutral is just a step in that journey.
We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intesnity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050.
