Hi 

Does anyone know if there is an underbed tent that fits for a Pennine Sterline Folding Camper?  I have looked on the Pennine Website but the only underbed tents that appear to be there are for the Fiesta.   If not, has anyone had a similar dilemma and used something else in its place?  We already have awnings and added to the camper but our family appears to be rapidly expanding!  All ideas would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi Mireille,

I think the bed supports get in the way of where you would put an undrebed tent.

We have a small dome tent to put up in the awning, we did think of a proper awning innertent but thought it would take up too much room. The tent we have can easily be moved if there is a crowd sitting in the awning. The other thing you could get is an awning extension but these are expensive.

 Hi Mireille,

Theres no underbed tent for the sterling but there is an awning extension and a inner tent to create an extra bedroom. We bought ours with our sterling from new but they are available aftermarket from Pennine if you phone them ( see website for number and be armed with the year of make and chassis number of your penni) but be aware it won't be quite the same shade of colour as the camper & you'll need a ground sheet too. I recall we paid about £200 - £250 six years ago for ours but have found it invaluable over the years - it mainly gets used as a cloak/ junk/ changing  room and toilet tent so you don't have to step outside last thing at night and don't have embarrasing moments during the day if anyone has to go in a hurry.

If like us you have school age kids and  have to take grandparents with you occasinally, then evicting the older kids into a small pup tent alongside the main unit might be the cheapest solution as some site won't charge for a tent of kids if in the boundaries of your pitch but would if it were adults.
