Coir Matting & Tipi Furnishings
Sioux-style tipis have a beautiful, timeless design that makes them ideal for festivals, glamping, weddings or even long‑term living. To make the space truly comfortable and inviting, it’s worth choosing the right flooring and furnishings. At MyTipi, we’ve put together a range of accessories that help you create a warm, practical space that works for any occasion.
Coir Matting for Tipis
Coir matting is one of the best flooring options for a tipi. Made from natural coconut fibres, it’s strong, breathable and long‑lasting. Coir allows air to circulate within the space and provides a rustic, natural surface that feels comfortable underfoot. It’s ideal for both short‑term and long‑term use, making it popular for festivals, glamping setups and wedding venues.
Other Tipi Furnishings We Offer
We also supply a range of furnishings and accessories that can help transform a tipi into a cosy, welcoming space:
– Woodburners of various sizes, with flue and flashing kits
– Kadai fire bowls
– Sheepskins and flooring options
Each item we sell is chosen from suppliers we trust — many are small businesses or family‑run businesses based in the South West of England. We focus on quality, sustainability and durability, and we only sell products that we’ve tried ourselves. We know the makers well and can vouch for the quality and suitability of every item.
We understand that many of our customers want spaces that are beautiful, long‑lasting and eco‑friendly. That’s why we also sell replacement parts for tipis and their furnishings. This allows you to refresh or repair your space when needed, rather than replacing the whole structure.
