Turn Land Into Income, with Tree Tents & Up Acre

At Tree Tents, we believe that great design and sustainable innovation can unlock incredible potential, not just for the planet, but for the people who care for it. That’s why we’re thrilled to be partnering with Up Acre, a company dedicated to helping landowners discover new ways to generate income through thoughtful and sustainable land use.

One of the most exciting opportunities we’re seeing is glamping. Not just any glamping, but immersive, eco-friendly stays that celebrate nature, elevate guest experiences, and generate meaningful returns for landowners.

Through our partnership with Up Acre, we’re making it easier than ever to launch a high quality, low impact glamping setup. Whether you’re just starting to explore the idea or ready to build something truly unique, this collaboration is designed to reduce risk, lower barriers and support forward thinking landowners every step of the way.

Why Tree Tents?

We design and handcraft unique, sustainable accommodation structures and facilities from their Sussex workshop. From lightweight woodland cabins to suspended tree tents, our focus is on beautiful, nature-immersed guest experiences.

Our approach is:

Low-impact: No need for foundations, heavy machinery; they tread lightly on our planet.
Stylish and sustainable: Beautiful designs that guests love, and which last a lifetime
Flexible: Designed to work with the land, not against it. Sloping terrain? Woodland? Waterside location? No problem for our architect-designed structures!
Use our ROI calculator to project returns; many our sites see 60%+ occupancy, and demand well above average nightly rates! Check out what other landowners have to say about hosting Tree Tents structures on their sites here.
Spread the Cost: We work with Portman Finance, specialists in supporting Landowners secure affordable financing with flexible repayments. Read more about how to earn as you pack back.
Shared investment options: Ask us about our Joint Venture model, where we part-fund the setup for a share of revenue.

As one landowner put it:

The Tree Tent is fast becoming the backbone of our small farm!
