Anyone know if you can get poles for the porch to make it higher than standard.

Hubby is 6'6 so standard poles, he has to duck.

Thanks

My local camping supplier provided a set as I am 6ft 3 in shoes its ideal still have to duck a bit as I go into the tent but much better  we found it easier to get a new set instead of extending the existing. We love our royal tent did not kdow what to get but please with the choice have you camped in yours yet???? We had a slight leak on the back door zip!!

Tonight is 1st night of pitching - just downloaded instructions of the web as ours are in botom of bag and wanted to get an idea of what we need to do.  Instructions look different though.  Do you have the Pin and Peg system on yours.

Cheers

Yes we do. We had never put up a tent before this one and did it in about 1 1/2 hoursput the two main poles in first then have someone go inside the tent to raise up the middle this makes it easier to fit the pins into the poles.you saw my previous post on my tent leaks. the replacement flysheet leaks in the same place when we checked the inside stiching/seams all have a plastic film except the one over the zip on the back door we are going to use seam sealer on this might be worth you while checking yours and doing the same

We have owned the biarritz for two years now with no problems but would like to see the royal website if anyone has the address i would be more than gratefull.

Wish I'd spotted this thread last week! We have the Biarritz 6 tent and the instructions are dire! Took us ages to put it up. Just spotted the more informative instructions on the website!

Nevermind, I'll print them off for next time!!

We have the Royal Biarritz 6 and have just had our first holiday in it.  It was absolutely brilliant.  Great bedroom and living room space and loved having the porch.

We practiced putting the tent up before we went away and I think it probably took about an hour without instructions.  Thought it was quite straight forward to put up and we're no experts.

My brother is 6foot3 and he had plenty of head room in the living room but did duck a little in the porch.

Again, when we went away and put the tent up then we didn't have any problems doing it - although it didn't fit on the first pitch we were given so had to move!!!  Also, it's the first tent we've had that we can actually pack away properly and fit it in the bag!!!
