Reason for Sale
This is a regretful sale however it’s time to hand over the reins to enable the business to grow further than I have the capacity to take it due to a significant increase in family commitments.
About the Business
A great opportunity to own a thriving glamping business, offering two businesses in one, with both a specialist online retail store and a mobile bell tent hire service.
One of the few established suppliers of premium canvas bell tents in Australia, and the only mobile glamping hire operator servicing the NSW mid north coast region.
The online retail store supplies canvas bell tents and accessories across Australia to tourism operators including campsites, Hipcamp and Airbnb hosts, as well as retreat facilitators, adventurers, and families and individuals. Stock has been made to our brand specifications by the same factory for 10 years.
The business could be easily relocatable to a different geographical area, or to expand the reach of the current area. It could also be franchised to service other areas.
There is huge potential for a savvy and energetic business operator to grow this business exponentially and take full advantage of the glamping and eco-tourism boom in the Australia tourism market, as well as the wedding, retreats and events spaces.
The hire and retail stock requires a dry, secure storage space of minimum 30sqm (excluding vehicles). A 6x6m storage space on the owner’s property is currently used.
Family circumstances have meant the business turns away a lot of work as I haven’t been able to travel further than the area currently serviced. This has meant turning down opportunities with many large festivals and events.
Everything is in place to hit the ground running, including bookings into early 2026.
A handover period is offered to ensure a smooth transition.
History
Established in 2014 with a focus on stylish, eco-conscious camping, the business has built a strong brand presence across regional NSW and Australia-wide through its premium glamping experiences and specialised product range. The business was a Finalist in the North Coast Tourism Awards in 2024.
The business has been operating as a sole trader operation. All operations have been managed by one person, with the exception of additional casual labour for mid-larger hire bookings.
