Hammocks

A hammock is one of the simplest pleasures of camping — sling it up, climb in, and let the trip slow down. At Newquay Camping Shop we stock a range built to handle everything from a lazy afternoon in the garden to a full weekend swinging between the trees on site.

We carry single hammocks for solo travellers who want something light enough to tuck into a rucksack, double hammocks with room to share, and sturdy freestanding stands for anyone pitching up without trees nearby. Fabrics range from quick-drying parachute nylon for backpackers to heavier cotton and rope weaves for a more relaxed, stay-at-home feel.

Several models in the range include built-in mosquito netting and compatible rain covers, so you're not caught out by midges or a passing shower, and the suspension straps are designed to spread the load evenly without cutting into bark or fraying over time.

As Cornwall's longest-established specialist camping retailer, we've been kitting out campers since 1973 — so if you'd rather see a hammock in person before you buy, you're welcome to call in at our Newquay showroom. Orders over £150 qualify for free delivery, and V12 finance is available on qualifying purchases if you'd like to spread the cost. Our team is on hand on 01637 877619 for any sizing or fitting questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size hammock do I need?

A single hammock suits one adult comfortably, while a double gives enough width to lie diagonally for a flatter, more supportive position — a popular choice even for solo use. Check the packed and hung dimensions on each listing to make sure it'll fit your space.

Can I use a hammock without trees?

Yes — our freestanding hammock stands are designed for gardens, patios, and campsites where there's nothing suitable to hang from. They fold down for storage and transport just as easily as the hammocks themselves.

Is a hammock warm enough to sleep in overnight?

On its own, a hammock can feel cold from underneath even in mild weather, as your body weight compresses any insulation beneath you. For overnight camping we'd suggest pairing it with an underquilt or sleeping mat, particularly in spring or autumn.

Do you offer finance on hammocks and camping gear?

Yes, V12 finance is available on qualifying orders, letting you spread the cost over instalments. Ask in-store or give us a call on 01637 877619 for details.
