Quasar

The Quasar is designed for mountaineers looking for an extremely strong. Whether you’re up in the mountains or at the poles, the Quasar will stand up to it all. Its strength, durability and space, make it the perfect choice for long-term mountaineering trips or expeditions at any time of the year.

Featuring an exceptionally strong geodesic design that is tried and tested, having withstood some of the harshest conditions in the world for over two decades.
The inner pitch first design of the Quasar adds to its stability and makes it quieter in windy conditions. It also adds superb inner tension, preventing sagging and providing the largest usable space possible.
Colour-coded DAC poles make it quick and simple to pitch.
The free-standing design means the Quasar is ideal for camping where the ground is less firm, as it doesn’t rely on guy lines and pegs to support its main structure.
Two entrances and porches allow sheltered access and plenty of space to store your gear.
Each inner door has a full midge-proof mesh and full solid inner door, enabling a multitude of ventilation options depending on weather conditions.
Guaranteed waterproofing comes from a combination of proven Terra Nova Watershed and Waterbloc fabrics, with the flysheet and groundsheet taped.
Dyneema reflective guylines add more stability in bad conditions. Dyneema guy rope is three times as strong as standard guyrope of the same weight and has very low stretch for stability in all conditions

Vault Duo

Rated 5.00 out of 5

Nigel Vardy - September 26, 2024

A lightweight and extremely robust tent which has two huge porches. I was recently sea kayaking and found the porches extremely useful when storing wet kit, whilst keeping the inside dry. It’s a very easy tent to pitch, with three poles all the same length, can be used free standing and was the envy of everyone other paddler. It would also be ideal for bike packing, mountaineering and wild camping.

Helm Compact 1

Rated 4.29 out of 5

Richard Mansfield - April 6, 2024

Purchased after much research and I have not been disappointed. Very easy to pitch and quick to pack away. I have used it in all four seasons in the UK, including high winds, driving rain and well below zero and it has held up flawlessly. I am 5ft 9" and can sit up in the middle, can easily get changed and store my kit - the storage area accessed by the small zipped door is brilliant! I would highly recommend this tent.

Pioneer Compact 2 Tent and Footprint Bundle

Rated 4.43 out of 5

Mike Bayless - February 23, 2025

Used the tent for 6 mountain camps and have not had a single issue. Absolutely love this tent, it's quick and easy to pitch, so much space for one, has withstood some serious uk winter weather with gusty 40mph winds and torrential rain. Packs up reasonably small, even with the ground sheet. All the original moans have been sorted, which means terra nova listen to their customers. Really good bang for the buck.

Southern Cross 1

Rated 5.00 out of 5

Paul Reiffer - September 6, 2024

Can't fault this tent - lasted perfectly in 50+ mph winds and 12-14" of rain in 24 hours in the Icelandic Highlands. While other tents were flapping and struggling, this stayed as solid as a rock and comfortable inside.

Zephyros Compact 1

Rated 3.50 out of 5

Jack - August 27, 2024

I have owned this tent for over a year and is my go to for multi-day hikes. It's easy to setup and packdown; the inner and outer can be setup at the same time to prevent the inner getting wet; and, it's durable and feels sturdy in windy conditions. My only jipe is that the regulators on the flysheet come loose pretty quickly. I don't know if I have misinterpreted the way they should be used, but I have resorted to a temporary fix as I can't get them to hold and will likely replace them with third party ones that have a better friction grip.

Helm Compact 3

Rated 3.00 out of 5

Maxime Lemaître - January 3, 2025

Three months ago we purchased the helm compact 3 While we initially chose this model because it was marketed as robust, waterproof, freestanding and well-ventilated—qualities essential for our needs. we have encountered several significant issues that have made the tent unsuitable for its purpose. First the lack of adequate ventilation: The poor ventilation has resulted in severe condensation inside the tent every night. Despite trying every possible solution—such as adjusting the setup, optimizing airflow, and using the ventilation openings—the problem persists. The condensation is so excessive that our sleeping bags and other gear become soaked nightly, leading to discomfort and potential damage to our materials due to prolonged exposure to moisture. As travelers relying on durable and functional equipment for long-term use, this situation is deeply disappointing. We did not prioritize the tent’s compact or lightweight features but specifically chose it for its promised durability and ventilation, which it has failed to deliver. Secondly the tent is not freestanding: The tent is sold as a freestanding tent. But it is not freestanding at all. If you can’t pitch the tent you can’t sleep in it. We’re really disappointed and angry of the false information provided about the tent by the brand. We don’t understand how such a brand is able to lie ,to their customers about such an important factor!!! I would not advise this tent!!

Quasar

Rated 4.80 out of 5

Hugh Mainwaring - December 14, 2024

I bought my Quasar in 1987 aged 15, some 37 years ago, from High Sports in Shrewsbury (*No longer in business). Where my Quasar has not been. Anyway am here looking for a new one for my 21 year old son. You'll not find a more durable tent. I consider it to be lightweight, and spacious.

Voyager

Rated 4.70 out of 5

Hans S - October 5, 2024

I bought my Voyager in 2004 and am still using it regularly. It is my primary tent and it does everything, from car camping to above the snowline in the mountains. It has withstood everything the mountain weather has thrown at it: heavy rain, snow & wind. It is tight for 2 people, but fortunately neither me or my wife are super tall. With only one door, it can get hot & stuffy in higher temperatures, but as a light weight shelter against adverse weather I cannot fault it. The seam tape on the flysheet is now pealing off, but after 20 years that is not a major issue. Just needs some seam sealant to be good to go for several more years. Very happy with my purchase!

Helm Compact 2

Rated 5.00 out of 5

Paul - November 28, 2024

I have used this tent about 6 times this year. The latest being 3 nights in the lake district during storm Bret . The tent endured freezing temperatures, snow ,rain and 60mph winds without any problems at all . It is a great tent for just myself with bags of room, great ventilation and very sturdy.

Northern Lite 2

Rated 4.00 out of 5

John Adby - March 18, 2024

Solid tent in the wind, trekking poles work well I used the rubber end on the ground sheet/footprint. Just annoying there is no gutter on the doors so water can drip in when open.

Panacea 2

Rated 4.67 out of 5

Barnsley block outdoors - January 27, 2024

It was love at first pitch. So fast and easy to pitch with its single pole design. Ones you add the trekking poles it becomes a tank of a tent. There is plenty of space inside and the two vestibules gives you so much flexibility. I have used it several times now out in the Peak District it all sorts of conditions and it’s taken it all in its stride. Can’t wait to get out in it again.

Zephyros Compact 2

Rated 4.00 out of 5

J - March 17, 2025

Used this tent for the first time over two nights during freezing temperatures. A good tent with a couple of issues. Firstly the doors system for holding them open involves a clip on the inner part of the tent which when the doors are wet is a bit of an issue socking the inside of the tent. I solved this ridiculous issue with a bulldog clip, tents costing £20 don't have this issue! The second is the absolutely wasted area between the outer and inner parts of the tent which is huge causing the inner to be tiny and definitely not a 2man tent unlike the picture above, you can't lay two tapered roll mats down so it's definitely a one man making the second door irrelevant. Oh I would add that it has the smallest bathtub on the inner making the footprint a must along with it seems definitely handicapping this tent towards the terra nova ones..... shame really 😕

Power Liner Wrist Gaiter

Rated 5.00 out of 5

Tom - March 24, 2025

Brilliant product. I cannot understand why these aren’t used more by winter climbers and mountaineers. I’ve had them years and they are an essential part of my winter layering system. I would not be without them during a winter accent. When my current pair finally give up, I’ll buy the same again.

Mountain Toester Socks

Rated 5.00 out of 5

Abbie W - February 8, 2024

As someone who is regularly cold and has to wear several pairs of socks, I can honestly say these are the warmest socks I've ever owned! No need to layer up as they're super warm on their own and so soft and cosy on the skin!

There’s a reason red tents have stood the test of time in mountaineering. High on a snow-covered ridge or deep in a storm, red cuts through the grey. It`s not just about looking bold – it`s about being seen when it counts.

✅ High visibility for search & rescue
✅ Easy to spot in fog or white-outs
✅ A boost of colour when morale dips
✅ A true classic in the wild

Team Terra Nova is sending huge `Congratulations` to our long-time expedition ambassador, friend, and supporter @nigelvardy for the release of `Frost Bitten` on Amazon Prime!

We had the pleasure of attending the premiere a couple of months ago, and can confirm it`s one to watch this weekend.

Here`s an update from Nigel on his latest adventures in Norway...

`I`m safely home from Norway, and everyone loved the Solar Horizon 2 (pictured). There was even another one on the trip..! The Footprint is an amazing piece of kit. It really keeps things dry and mitigates any ground damage as you enter and leave the tent.`
