OVER A DECADE OF EXPERIENCE
At Simply Hammocks, we're hammock enthusiasts who are passionate about bringing joy and relaxation to outdoor living since 2010. We don't just sell hammocks - we sell the best hammocks that we would want to own ourselves. Our handcrafted hammocks are not only high-quality but ethically produced, too, because we care about the environment and the communities we work with. Plus, every time you order from us, we donate money to support charities in Brazil and South America which support local street children.

BUILT TO LAST
At Simply Hammocks, our hammocks and stands are meticulously handcrafted to the highest standards, with hours of care and attention invested in every product. We're proud to marry traditional Brazilian hammock techniques with precision German engineering, ensuring the perfect blend of comfort and durability. Our self-sustaining factory is powered by renewable energy, and we're committed to using FSC-certified wood and employing ethical practices, as well as being a member of INTERSOH to minimise waste. All our hammocks come with the GS and TUV marks for quality and safety assurance.
You should buy a hammock from us because they are more than just a comfortable and stylish addition to your outdoor space. When you buy from us, you're supporting sustainable production methods and donating to a charity that helps Brazilian street kids. Our hammocks are also TUV and GS accredited for safety and quality, and made with traditional Brazilian techniques and precise German engineering. They're used by exclusive resorts worldwide, and we've been perfecting our craft for 30 years. Each hammock is hand-crafted for a truly unique and high-quality addition to your outdoor living space.
We offer fast, free UK delivery on most hammock orders andif the order is placed by 12pm, you will usually get the hammock the next working day. Returns are easy — if your hammock isn’t right, you have 30 days to return or exchange it in its original condition. Full details are on our Delivery & Returns page.
Yes. All our hammocks and stands include a minimum one-year warranty, and many have extended guarantees from leading brands such as Amazonas. We stand behind every hammock we sell, so if you have an issue, our team is always here to help.
There are numerous options for fixing and suspending a hammock, each providing a unique and enjoyable experience. You may choose to hang it between two generously spaced trees with our adjustable fixing ropes, place it on one of our robust stands, or securely fasten it to walls or posts. For those with only one tree in their garden, we even offer a specialised stand designed to accommodate such situations.
This largely depends on how well you care for it. Some of our customers are using hammocks and stands that are over 5 years old, but most of our customers tend to replace them every summer to bring a new colour into their garden. All our products are made to the highest standards, with TUV and GS quality marks, meaning they will be far superior to anything available elsewhere.
Ideally, your hammock should sit about 120cm above ground level, so you can easily get in and out of it. Of course, you can hang it as high as you like.
All our hammocks can be left outside, but some materials are better than others for repelling rain and sun fade. Hammocks made from 100% polyester, parachute-silk, or Elltex can all be left outside, although we still recommend bringing them in to dry to prevent mould. Our Brazilian cotton hammocks ideally should be kept dry. Learn more
Fold your hammock loosely and store it in a dry, ventilated space. Avoid plastic bags — they trap moisture. Many hammocks include a matching storage bag or pouch for easy packing.
Rest assured that all our hammocks undergo testing beyond the advertised weight capacity. However, we strongly advise using the recommended weight capacity as a guide when making your purchase. To help you make an informed decision, we have categorised our hammocks into single (suitable for one person), double (ideal for two people), and family (designed for two or more people). When ordering a hammock with fixings or a stand, be sure to verify that the weight capacities are suitable for your intended use.
Yes, hammocks are perfectly safe when set up correctly. For children, we recommend traditional hammocks without spreader bars, hung low to the ground. Always supervise kids, and avoid letting pets chew cords or fabric.
Think about where you’ll use it — garden, balcony, indoors, or camping. Then decide if you prefer a single, double, or family-size hammock. Our Hammock Buying Guide explains everything from material choices to weight limits so you can find your perfect fit.
This is down to the different sizes of the hammock or stand, and also the materials. Most of our stands are made using Spruce, but some are made from a hardier Larch.
Not at all, once you are in the hammock, it is very safe. We sell thousands of hammocks and rarely hear of any incidents, and some of our happiest hammock users are people over 60. Hammocks are comfortable and relaxing, and sadly, there is a notion that they are difficult to get into. This is not the case.
Yes, hammocks help with the natural curvature of the spine and are much better for you than lying or sleeping on a flat bed. In some studies, sleeping in a hammock has been proven to help relieve back pain.
If you plan to keep your hammock outside most of the year, choose a weather-resistant fabric such as EllTex or polyester. These materials are designed to handle rain, UV light, and temperature changes better than pure cotton hammocks, which are softer but best suited for indoor or sheltered areas.
A spreader-bar hammock has wooden bars at each end that hold the fabric open, creating a flatter surface and a great look for gardens or patios. A traditional hammock (without bars) cocoons around your body for a more stable, comfortable sleep and is safer for kids or anyone new to hammocks.
Absolutely. You can hang a hammock from load-bearing beams or wall studs using our indoor fixing kits. For campervans or vans, secure to metal anchor points rather than thin panels. Always check the surface can handle your hammock’s weight before hanging.
