About TentBox

TentBox is a British rooftop tent brand, founded in 2015 by brothers Ollie and Neill near Southampton. The inspiration came during a road trip in France, where they dreamed of bringing high-quality rooftop tents to the mass market. TentBox is now the best-selling rooftop tent brand in Britain with over 25,000 units on the road, recently relocating to a larger headquarters in North Baddesley, near Southampton.

At launch, rooftop tents were virtually unknown outside the 4x4 overlanding niche. TentBox's vision was to create roof tents that fit on any car — not just 4x4s. The TentBox Lite 2.0 weighs just 49 kg and sets up in 2–5 minutes, providing an elevated sleeping platform with a built-in dual-layer foam mattress, two skylights for stargazing, and 360-degree views through large all-around windows.

When mounted on a Tickners GP74 box trailer (as sold at BCC), the TentBox Lite 2.0 becomes a standalone towable camping unit with enclosed gear storage below and sleeping above. The TentBox can be removed from the trailer and roof-mounted on a vehicle when preferred — maximum versatility.
