Description
Multiple Doors, Airy Layout.
The front and back doors provide for multiple entry points and allow for greater airflow. This massive 6M (19.5′) canvas bell tent is a beast and a beauty. Perfect to pitch for a season on your property, or to bring out when extra guests are expected. We used rugged 11.5 oz. canvas to create a beast of a canvas tent that will last!
Oh, and what’s with the name? Well Fernweh [PRON “FERN – way”] is German for farsickness – the opposite of homesickness – or a longing to break free and travel.
