Small team but effective

A dedicated, passionate team with years of expertise

We are a small, yet passionate team with many years of experience in building glamping tents and bringing your dreams to life. Our size allows us to be extremely flexible, ensuring that each tent we create is unique and custom-built for you and your specific location. We never compromise on design or quality, and our expertise spans landscape architecture, garden design, glamping, and eco-resorts.

Our commitment to quality

Every glamping solution we create is first designed in 3D. Once you approve the design, we begin the production process. We take our work seriously—perhaps a little too seriously—but this is our craft, and we take pride in it. There’s no mass production here. Every BIGHEAD product is handcrafted in Slovenia, ensuring that our tents are distinctive and stand out from the rest. Don’t just take our word for it; ask our satisfied clients.

Award-Winning Collaborations

We’ve built tents for both small, private resorts and large glamping destinations, including the Valamar Group. Campsites featuring our tents have received prestigious awards such as the “TripAdvisor 2016 Travelers’ Choice,” “TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence, 2015 Winner,” “2nd Place in Best Glamping in Slovenia 2016,” and the honour of hosting the world’s first 6-star glamping resort in 2018, Garden Village Bled.

See our products in person

You can explore our work by visiting us in Slovenia. While a picture might be worth a thousand words, seeing our tents in person offers an entirely different experience—you’ll get to see and feel the quality first-hand. It's like buying a new car: you wouldn’t order it online without seeing it for yourself.

We’d be happy to assist you, guide you through our projects, and show you all the details.
