A tent in the sky

This is one for those of you that like camping but hate the bugs.

Dubbed Tentsile, this modern tree house looks very much like an airborne tent but the designers insist that it is a treehouse.

It has been designed to be set up in just half an hour and is made out of waterproof polyester which makes it ideal for use in almost all climates.

It can be hung from its self-supportive base or anchored from trees, is offered in 2-person, 5-person and 8-person versions and provides the same comfort of cohabitation as a tent with the same level of functionality as a tree house or a hammock.

It weighs between 11-18 lbs with the two-person Tentsile model retails for $3,000 and the 8-person model costs just over $12,000.
