Popular high street sports chain is now renting tents to Brit holidaymakers for £3 a night | The Sun

BRIT holidaymakers who want to go camping can hire a tent for just £3 this summer.

Sports retailer Decathlon has launched a tent rental service in time for the school summer holidays.

The scheme is an extension of its previous rental service where customers could hire sports gear like kayaks, bikes, and paddleboards from £10 per day.

But just in time for the summer holidays, Brits will be able to hire out a tent for as little as £10 for three days.

There are eleven tents to choose from in the range including pop-up and inflatable models.

The cheapest tent costs £10 to rent and has enough space for two people.
