Roll up lightweight, eco-friendly, natural fibre, sleep, exercise mat pad

Summer is here -albeit in serious disguise! Camping this summer may prove to be a chilly experience so what could be better than the natural thermal properties of a wool bed roll to protect you from the chilly nights and insulate  you and your sleeping bag from the rising damp of the groundsheet! Treat yourself to some well deserved comfort this summer!


In the morning when a little stretching  is required, a period of relaxation and meditation then the Talan sleeping roll can double up as the perfect exercise/meditation mat - giving support yet combining a truly organic connection to mother earth.

Budding  'tuffetees' have been busy in Devon and Dorset making their own Tam Tuffets in the  festival craft workshops at the Pennymoor Song and Ale fest and the Wessex Festival. The  natural craft workshops have been said to have brought a relaxing 'time-out' from the hub bub and fast pace of life! Young and old have enjoyed participating in this traditional craft creating their own tuffets from the choice of fleece available.

The absolutely best thing about making tuffets is that tuffets make you smile! Sitting on one, making one or just handling them on the stall - everyone smiles! Liam, above, bravely sat with older folk and worked really hard to create a woollen tuffet to be proud of, a brilliant moment of the festival. The biggest problem was holding dad back as he couldn't stop himself trying to help - definitely a 'wannabe tuffetee!'
