Hi there,

Does  anyone know where i can get a canopy in grape for a Vango  Orchy 500. My wonderful family and friends have put to and bought my little girl and i this lovely pink tent for my birthday. Thought i would treat myself to the canopy but can't seem to locate one in grape. Has anyone seen one ????????

Had our first camping trip of the year this weekend at Newhaven. Brilliant time but i swear i have never seen so much mud!!!!!

Thanks for any help

Angela

Hi Angela,

Outdoor Action have a Standard Canopy in Grape/Dove £14.95

And Vango say this will fit the Orchy.

Hi,

Thanks for your mail.

The Standard, large and tunnel canopy will fit the Orchy.

Hope this is of use.

Interesting, as I've just had an email from Andrew saying that they don't make the canopy in grape!

Here's a link to the Vango canopy at Outdoor Action, I'd order one in the colour you want and e-mail them to make sure they have it in that colour.  I just brought a sample tent from them and it's great, (different colour to the one I ordered though!)

I'm thinking of waiting till i can get one of the large ones with the window in. That site shows a picture and it looks lovely and probably alot more practicle. Do you think i would be able to cook in it????

Hi

As far as i know you can only get the canopy in Grape from Outdoor Action as they buy all of Vangos samples. Some people will like the grape but the orders from the retailers were so small i dont think Vango made very much stock in that colour. So if your after anything in this colour grab it now.

Sounding a bit thick here, I know, but please can you tell me how you 'attach' the canopy to the tent? Or is it free standing? I have a Vango V500 and would like to know which canopy would fit. Apologies again for sounding dumb!

I bought an Oregon a few days ago on ebay, not grape though. However, they were selling canopies too. Can't fit the link on the page but you could search for item number 290220125375.

Hope that helps
