FINE BRITISH MARQUEES

CANVAS MARQUEES

We’re proud to say that our luxury canvas and timber pole tents are handcrafted in Britain. A contemporary take on a traditional Victorian design, each sailcloth marquee combines generations of craftmanship from skilled sailmakers, carpenters and engineers. The result is a structure that embodies elegance, strength, and a truly classic British aesthetic — a marquee where quality is never compromised.

Sailcloth Marquee Guy Ropes

ALL IN THE DETAIL

There are some things modern technology simply can’t replicate and we believe the beauty of a traditional pole tent should remain true to form. Every one of our marquees is finished with natural canvas, authentic ropework, and solid timber detailing. Our guy ropes are tensioned using beech timber sliders, while hand-turned finials and handstitched white flags complete each structure with unmistakable charm.

MORE THAN A BLANK CANVAS

Our original sailcloth marquees offer a celebration space like no other. Handcrafted from cotton-rich canvas, the signature swooping rooflines and tall timber poles create a light, airy and elegant interior — the perfect blank canvas for your imagination. The open-plan design offers creative freedom and versatility with your layout, so you can tailor your event exactly as you wish.
