Hi

We have just bought an XL as well just booked into this campsite http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=5115 for three nights from 25 - 28 May for £33.00.  No problem with tent size here.

I've just been told I will need to pay for two pitches for this tent !! at a cost of £44 per night !!....eeek....Am I right in saying the size of this tent is 5 x 7 metres, as that's what I told the site....

Ditto last two posts.

We also have an XXL and would never pay that amount for a pitch!

Ditto here.  Only paid for one.  There is a thread on the campsites forun which list places that take large tents.  I would vote with my feet.

I've just been trying to arrange a weekend away with 7 families, two of which have "mega" tents.  I have had trouble finding sites that will take them.  One of the families even offered to pay for two pitches, but were not allowed to by one of the sites that I looked at.  I have now found a site - Nethercourt - in Ramsgate that will take them.  I can't understand it - a trailer tent can also be pretty big by the time you add an awning.  This seems to be a treand that is spreading.

Good luck in finding somewhere you like that will take your tent!
