Mosquito-Free Nights: Sleeping Under the Net in Safari Glamping Tents

Warm summer evenings in the Lot–Dordogne are magical—until buzzing visitors try to join you at bedtime. Mosquito-Free Nights: Sleeping Under the Net in Safari Glamping Tents shows how you can enjoy the great outdoors and still sleep soundly. At Village de Montmarsis, every 5-star Safari Glamping tent includes a mosquito net over the double bed in the main bedroom, so you drift off comfortably after a day by the pool or exploring historic villages.

In this guide, you’ll discover why the net matters in our climate, what to expect inside your tent, practical tips for bite-free rest, and how to make the most of summer evenings across the park—from the bar and brasserie to family-friendly play areas.

Why a mosquito net matters in Lot–Dordogne summers

• Mosquitoes are typically most active around dusk and dawn. A well-fitted bed net is a simple, effective physical barrier that keeps insects out while you sleep.
• Unlike repellents, a net doesn’t rely on chemicals; it works by stopping insects from reaching you in the first place.
• For light sleepers, a net reduces the chance that buzzing or bites will disrupt your rest—especially valuable after busy days of sightseeing, cycling, or swimming.

How to use your mosquito net for best results

Get the most from your mosquito net with a few simple habits:

1. Tuck and seal: Before lights out, ensure the net fully drapes around the mattress and is tucked under, with no gaps at the corners.
2. Stage your routine: Do bedtime prep (teeth, nightcap, lights) first, then slip under the net to minimize in‑and‑out movement.
3. Mind the light: Bright lights attract insects. Dim indoor lighting near bedtime and keep exterior lights low when you re‑enter the tent.
4. Close entry points at dusk: Keep doors zipped/closed in the evening to reduce insects indoors.
5. Dress smart: Lightweight, light‑colored sleepwear can be less attractive to insects and keeps you comfortable on warm nights.
6. Repellent as backup: If you prefer, apply personal repellent before bed—especially for guests not sleeping under the net.
7. Laundry advantage: Use your in‑tent washing machine to freshen clothing that’s been sprayed with repellent or sunscreen during the day.
