Yet another vote here for United British Caravans in Sandy Lane.  Almost everything considerably cheaper than other places.  However, for my collapsible bin I just got a 'garden' one from Tesco - a pack of 2 was really cheap.

Back from Sandy Lane - absolutely packed !!

Managed to stop myself buying another tent, but have a lovely little camp kitchen now !

Hehehe we have just came back too - had to have a free burger and drink but resisted having a go on the bouncy castle lol :)

And Oooh we were so tempted but resisted buying another too but did buy a new kettle, gas, new inflater thingy and oh and a new wine glass for me self :)

It was so packed we had to park over the road at the tyre place.

Another vote for United British Caravans here !

I got my tent there earlier in the year and saved over £100 its also the cheapest place I have found for gas.  I went to the one at Catterick too and came home empty handed.

We had a bad experience at UBC, they weren't happy about giving us a refund on a faulty tent. It took three visits to sort it out.

Got our latest tent at Great Outdoors at Shiremoor. They have tents on display, but not as cheap as UBC.

Well thanks for the tip off UBC was brilliant and to be fair we felt we wasted our time at Catterick as UBC was superior. Anyway thanks very much and by the way as the tent we fancied was not at any site we got an idea of what we liked and have ordered today - Khyam Ontario 8.

jefflad, 

I put on a similar post about 3 months back and everyone recommended UBC (which we have paid a fair few visits to since) I always shop around and have a good search on net before I buy but usually find UBC beat everyone else by miles! Only thing that I could complain about is they didn't have the tents that I liked (Outwell, Khyam and Vango) Reckon if they sold them too they would be even more popular! . Enjoy your new tent.

Thanks Claire,

I agree with your view on tents they all seemed to be the same brand... sun valley or something like that. I did a search for shops up where we live but found nothing... must be my search skills!!
