Roundhouse Tarp
€199,99 €649
The Roundhouse Tarp turns your tent into a proper basecamp giving you a covered outdoor space for cooking, sorting kit or staying sociable when the weather turns.
It attaches to the apex of your Roundhouse 4 or Roundhouse 6 door, or as a freestanding campsite tarp, and pitches fast with three support poles. No faff. Just a dry, open porch that makes camp life easier.
Why it’s better with a porch
-
More liveable space - Adds a covered area to cook, stash gear or lounge in the shade
-
Dry doorway, happy campers - Keeps your entrance clear of rain and mud for easy ins and outs
-
Fast, secure pitch - Three-pole design is quick to set up and holds steady in rough weather
-
Made to fit - Attaches cleanly to the A-frame apex of your Roundhouse for a simple, reliable connection
Camp life made simpler
Mornings start slower under shelter. Coffee tastes better. And the mess stays outside.
The tarp gives you room to breathe and a place to gather - whether you’re riding out a downpour or laying out the stove for a fry-up. It’s that in-between space that makes everything feel more relaxed.
More room to live. Less reason to head inside.
Designed to last
Roundhouse Tarp is made from the same durable, weather-resistant polycotton fabric as the main tent, with strong steel poles - built to handle wild weather and extended campsite stays. Designed to work seamlessly with both the Roundhouse 4 and the Roundhouse 6 bell tents, or as a standalone camp tarp.
Like all our gear, it’s backed by our 3-year Alpine Bond and supported by in-house repairs if anything goes wrong.

Sustainability and Product Care
Tarp care
Clean and dry your tarp thoroughly after each use. Never use a washing machine, tumble dryer or jet wash to clean your tarp. Car washes are also frowned upon. Spot clean with warm water, mild (non-detergent) soap and a soft sponge. Never use bleach, fabric softeners or other household cleaning products and air dry only.
Tarp repair
To make your tarp last longer, avoid prolonged UV exposure and repair damage immediately. All our tarps are provided with a basic repair kit for patching holes and splinting poles in the field. If your tarp is beyond basic repair, pop down to one of our store's Repair Stations! If you are unlucky enough to rip your tarp on a trip, use duct tape or StormSure Tough Tape until you have a chance to repair it properly. For more repair tips read our tent care and repair blog.

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.
