Hi Rachel, Welcome, Like corpogreen says why not go for a folding camper, we’ve had both trailer tent & folding camper and we preferred folding camper, a lot quicker setting up & the kitchen is in the trailer,

We had a pole in our conway trailer tent just as we stepped out of trailer, its because we had extra metre wide section of awning.

The triganos have a double awning feature where by you can have a standard awning (3m out I think) then you can add an extension. Another 2 metres out, making the awning huge and fantastic for family space, Ours was a massive beast but with kids and dogs and all the clobber even in wet weather you have room for everything. With the second awning up you will have the pole in the middle which is essential for support. The standard awnings do not need the extra pole, only when you add the extra do you get the pole. most normal awnings dont have a pole in the centre of the awning.

I wonder if you have been seeing photos of them fully put up with both awnings up. You can also just put up the 2m section for short stays, The triganos are versatile.

Where else have you been looking?  Preloved, Gumtree, ad-trader, the free-ads on here, free-ads, friday-ads, trade-it and just googling will sometimes throw up what you want.

The Chantilly is a very nice looking tt and you can get them with the awning extention and sun canopy :)

Good Luck with your search and let us know how you get on :)
