The Fuselage is our most innovative new structure. Inspired by the principles of modern aerospace design, the Fuselage offers a lightweight, robust and extremely portable accommodation solution. Like an aeroplane, the Fuselage is engineered to go the distance.
Designed to be either mounted on stilts or suspended from trees, the Fuselage makes light work of even the most challenging terrain allowing you to maximise areas of woodland, sloping sites, or the water’s edge.
“Our most innovative, adaptable and exciting glamping structure yet.”

THE BENEFITS
With demand for glamping holidays reaching new heights and the range of accommodation options growing steadily with it, it’s critical to make the right choice now to ensure your future success. Knowing this, we design and create accommodation solutions that will help you stand out from the crowd and deliver a world-class experience for your guests..
Precision engineered
Inspired by early aerospace design the Fuselage’s clever hardwood and aluminium airframe is lightweight, durable and provides a flexible and spacious interior.
Utilise unusable land
Our most efficient structure in terms of space, weight and proportion, the Fuselage is perfect for those hard to reach, uneven or heavily wooded sites.
For every season
A triple-layer thermal skin system will keep the elements out while 100% British wool insulation ensures guests stay warm and toasty or cool and dry – whatever the weather.
Easily repaired
A clever modular design means if damage should occur it can be repaired easily with minimal disruption and cost to your business.
SUSTAINABILITY
We believe there is nothing like the power of the outdoors to recharge and rejuvenate. We are woodland warriors passionate about sharing authentic experiences and enabling adventure that doesn’t cost the earth. Like our own well-being, our woodlands need to be protected and this ethos drives everything we do from strategy to installation.
Knowing where our materials come from ensures they are responsibly and locally sourced, 100% recyclable and of the highest quality.
Each structure is built bespoke, by experts in the UK, using a clever modular system that allows damage to be repaired rather than the entire structure needing to be replaced.
By delivering structures that are prefabricated and flat-packed we dramatically reduce their carbon footprint in production, transport and installation.
Having reduced our footprint as much as possible, we then partner with community projects to fund the planting of new trees where they’re needed most.

Outer Shell
Aluminium thermal skin panels wrap around the structure ensuring excellent weather and corrosion resistance. Additionally, the outer can be finished in a variety of finishes and cladding to make your structure stand out or blend in, whatever your preference.

Modular Design
The modular design of the Fuselage means we can supply base unit extensions to increase the space and capacity of the structure. The unit is extendable in increments of 1.5m. Although do note, as your structure grows it may become unsuitable for suspension!
The Fuselage is designed and built using materials lightweight enough to allow it to be suspended or mounted on stilts – making it suitable for a range of challenging conditions. The Fuselage has great eco-cred using sustainably sourced wood and recycled aluminium to achieve an eco-friendly and robust structure.
