Hello all, My husband and i have just sold our oldish caravan and are really interested in buying a trailer tent. The one I have fallen in Love with is £11000 and I havent got that I have got £3500. Trouble is I want one with a cooker. Is this possible for my price budge?. Im not fussed about loo, although that would be a bonus. I would want an awning and maybe even one annexe for extra sleeping arrangements.

I have had a look everywhere and seen hundreds. Some have some of what I want but not all of what I want.

Am I being unrealistic ? Be honest ?

Thank-you

hi laylou have you seen a particular one that you like ? if so have you looked on ebay at the folding campers they have a variety of different models and prices. We recently bought a pennine sterling from the loot free ads, ask as many questions as you can when considering purchasing from a private buyer and if its a long way from you ask for lots of photos to look at too. we drove over 200 miles to get ours but we did ask lots of questions and had lots of photos sent to us via email. How many of you would there be going ?. if up to 4 people i could recommend the conway challenger which is what we had before this one but does not have a built in fridge.  or for 6 or more and you want the fridge  the sterling or conway crusier are good units. i wanted a built in fridge which is why we bought the sterling.hope this may help you descide. Also ask dealers to send you brochures then puruse at home before trailing round the camping places to try them out.
