Posted a thread earlier about synthetic underquilts and its made me realise that I only know of 2 hammock retailers in the UK, which are DD hammocks and UK hammocks.
Does anyone know of any others?

Heinnie Haynes do a few things, a couple of Snugpac hammocks and an under quilt .
RVOPS stock some Hennessey hammocks too.
Those are the only UK places I know about, though I've not been looking long.
I spend so much money at heinnies already! Didnt know about RVOPs though.
Not a great deal of choice in the UK unfortunately.
Warbonnet I think is stocked over there by someone.
Edit:Here it is
There's only DD and UKHammocks really, Nomad Travel do a couple of jungle orientated designs but not much else. Snugpak have started selling a couple but they're just another clone of what's already available, with scandalous suspension ideas too.
Tenth Wonder seem to have a small following, never tried one myself though.
As far as quilts go you've got Mat at UKHammocks doing his stuff and then Snugpak making the underblanket and top quilt. Apart from that you're looking at one or two cottage industries making stuff in very small numbers.
Cheers Shewie, I thought that may be the case but worth asking.
Recognizing a lot of BCUK members over here!
The only other one I can think of is tenth wonder hammocks, they only sell on ebay, and I don't think they are made in the UK, but they are UK based.
TW Hammocks sell on Ebay but also have their own website. Stocks are pretty low at the moment and they are about three weeks behind with their next delivery. Even though their stock is made abroad the quality is excellent. Prices are very acceptable and customer service is excellent. Neil, the owner of the company has mentioned that in the future he will be concentrating sales on his website more than Ebay to keep the costs down for the buying public.
Here is the website.

Ah, never knew tyey had a website, is it new? I've googled them a few times and the website has never came up.
It might be new mate as I remember looking for it earlier last year without success.
I'm waiting for those tarps with doors to come back into stock. Paul (51Foxy) did a great review on Youtube with one.
Cheers Neil
