Your project budget
How much does a complete glamping dome setup cost?
A complete setup costs more than the frame and PVC cover. Our shell prices start at £3,499 + VAT for 4m, £5,499 + VAT for 6m, £6,999 + VAT for 8m and £7,499 + VAT for 10m. The total depends on your site, specification and the work included; request a written quotation for your project.
| Dome shell | Confirm the diameter, frame and cover specification, starting price and VAT. |
|---|---|
| Optional features | Confirm doors, windows, insulation, curtains and ventilation, including which are included and which cost extra. |
| Base and site work | Allow for the agreed base, anchoring, ground conditions, access and any landscaping. |
| Delivery and assembly | Confirm transport, access requirements, installation scope and timing for your location. |
| Utilities and interior | Plan electricity, water, drainage, heating, bathroom, kitchen, furniture and fittings to suit your use. |
| Outdoor features | Budget separately for seating, a hot tub or other agreed features and their installation. |
| Operating costs | Consider cleaning, linen, utilities, maintenance and booking management if you plan to host guests. |
A starting budget for a 6m dome
A 6m frame and PVC cover starts at £5,499 + VAT. This is the shell price, not the total cost of an installed, furnished glamping stay.
Build your project budget from that starting point: add quotations for the chosen extras, prepared base and anchoring, delivery and assembly, utility connections, heating, bathroom, kitchen and furniture. List outdoor features separately and include an allowance for unexpected site work. Items included in a supplier’s quotation should only be counted once.
Send us your postcode, intended use, preferred specification and details of any existing base or utilities. We can discuss the dome supply and installation scope and identify which site works need separate quotations.
Ask each supplier to list inclusions and exclusions against the same brief. That makes a shell quote easier to compare with an installed or fitted-out project.

Questions before you buy
Get the details clear.
How much does a glamping dome cost?
Base packages start at £3,499 for 4m, £5,499 for 6m, £6,999 for 8m and £7,499 for 10m. These prices exclude VAT and cover the frame and PVC cover only. VAT is added to the quotation; extras and delivery are confirmed separately.
Which dome sizes can I buy?
Our made-to-order range offers 4m, 6m, 8m and 10m diameters. Tell us your intended use, layout and guest numbers so we can discuss a suitable size and configuration.
Is the base included?
A base is included only if your quotation says so. Base design, anchoring, ground conditions and site access need to be agreed before installation.
Are bathrooms, kitchens and hot tubs included?
They are not automatically included with a dome shell. Insulation, heating, utilities, bathrooms, kitchens, furniture and outdoor features must be listed explicitly in the agreed scope.
How long does delivery and installation take?
All domes are made to order. Shipping may take up to three months. We confirm the schedule for your chosen configuration and agree any installation dates separately.
Can the dome be used through winter?
Discuss the insulation, heating, ventilation and intended season of use before ordering. Comfort and suitability depend on the complete specification and site conditions.
Do you deliver throughout the UK?
We welcome UK enquiries from our Kent base. Delivery and installation coverage, travel costs and site access are confirmed for each location.
What permissions do I need?
Requirements depend on location and proposed use. Establish the required permissions before ordering or installing; buying a dome does not authorise its use.
What should I include in an enquiry?
Send your name, location, number of domes, preferred size, intended use, target dates and the services you need. Include what you already know about access, the base and utilities.
Can I hire rather than buy?
Temporary wedding and event hire enquiries are welcome. We confirm suitable options, availability and the full hire scope before agreeing a booking.
Can you help manage the accommodation?
Management support is subject to location and agreed responsibilities. Discuss listings, bookings, guest communication, cleaning, maintenance and operating costs separately.
Can I view a dome before buying?
Yes. Free in-person viewings are available in Kent, or arrange a video call. Contact Josh to book a time.
What warranty is included?
A three-year warranty covers defects in the dome frame and PVC cover. Repairs for covered defects and any necessary site visits are provided at no charge. Damage caused by misuse or incorrect installation is excluded. Contact us with your order details and photos of the issue. We respond promptly and arrange assessment by video call or a site visit where needed. Read the warranty summary.
