hi have bought a trigano trailer tent (odyssee) with a built in ground sheet. i am thinking of covering the floor with an awning carpet to protect the ground sheet also thinking of putting a large groundsheet under the awning floor to keep it clean. husband thinks i'm crazy but is it worth it??????

Use a tarpaulin, get one bigger than the size of the groundsheet and then cut it so that it is just slightly smaller. Definitely don't need an awning carpet to go underneath.

You'd basically be making a footprint for it that you can buy for tents with SIGs.

Hi Debbie,we have the trigono odysee and also have another groundsheet and we got some rugs from dunhelm that cover the whole floor.I was the same as you wanting to protect the built in ground sheet,glad we did as we,ve used ours 5 times now and its kept perfect. Its also much cosier.Good luck with your new odysse,im sure you,ll love it as much as we do.
