From solo stargazing to a two-person camp cocoon – the Nebula Star 1250 Swag by Darche is where comfort meets convenience beyond the big smoke.
Its hybrid design delivers generous space for two, while four-way entry and strategically positioned windows promote superior ventilation in warm, cold, or clammy conditions. An internal dual-colour dimmable LED light brings the outback magic of star-studded skies into the cosy confines of your swag, complemented by fine insect mesh on both doors and windows for a bug-free beauty sleep. A high-density 70mm foam mattress with removable cover offers plush comfort, while internal seam-sealing and a full-length welded PVC bucket floor withstand the wet weather. Plus, generous storage pockets and a roof loft keep your camp kit neat and in reach.
The Darche Nebula Star 1250 Swag delivers double the comfort for the single-most memorable camping experience.
Hi, I have a tilda swag but looking to get something a bit bigger. I noticed width of this swag rolled up is 10 cm narrower than the tilda but it’s set up size is way bigger. Is this because it’s the measured size with the mattress still shrink wrapped? Is there a reason why it rolls up smaller than other similar swags? Thanks!
G'day Amanda,
Good question. The two swags are hard to compare because they have different shaped sizing. The Nebula 1250 swag has an elongated octagon shape so the corners cut in as opposed to the Tilda swag which is rectangular. Internally, you'll probably notice the most difference in the height of the swag as the Tilda measures approx 80cm(H) and the Darche Nebula 1250 is approx 100cm(H).
Hello! Just wondering if you know of any self inflating mat options that would work with the odd shape of the Nebula. Would something like the darche supreme snoozer 1100 fit with a gap on the sides? Many thanks!!
G'day Katherine,
The 1100 mattress is probably as wide as you'll be able to go as the swag floor is octogon shaped, and the corners of the mat will fold in if you go any bigger.
Hope that helps!
Hi, does the Nebula Star have a power cord entry on one side? Also is it designed to have a fly? thanks
G'day Billy,
There's no dedicated power chord entry but you can use the doorways, and there's no fly that comes with it.
The ridge pole means you can use a generic swag awning.
What size and configuration stretcher would suit this perfectly. I have used the 1550 before on a XL 1400 stretcher and we really dont like the sag in the middle. Hoping that a 1250 would fit on a stretcher with less sagging, we have looked into oztent, oztrail and quest crossbow 1 stretcher to minimize overhang. Please advice cheers!
G'day Nate,
Your best bet would be a Quest Crossbow 1 Swag Stretcher. There would be about 7cm of overhang either side. Ideally you need a bit of overhang to prevent dust, debris, and water from pooling in between the swag and stretcher. They have middle vertical supports to help with sagging.
