Febreze? Make sure that the inside/upholstery is really dry then if it still smeels consider steam cleaning it. When one of the kids was sick on one of our cushions I ended up working damp bicarbonate of soda into the upholstery, washing it and then deep steam cleaning it to finally remove the smell.

We haven't got canvas, but I would imagine you would need to put the TT up and leave it to air really well!

I'm sure others will leave their suggestions (maybe better ones) soon.

Congrats on acquiring it too

Ours smelt musty when we bought it. On a warm sunny day in the summer opened it up with doors and vents open. Propped mattress up outside. Hasn't smelt since. Still time for you to get a sunny autumn day with a breeze to blow throught it. It's all it needs.

What light? I'm still looking for the tunnel.

febreeze works wonders and just putting up on a dry day will help we used to have a caravan that smelt damp after the winter but after opening it up for the first time the smell went we kept it for 14 years and it must of liked us cos it always came back

When you fold it away, scatter a few sheets of tumble drier sheets around inside.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.
