Infuriating, isn't it?!!

I won my, much sought after, Cabanon 'C' series last week by downloading snipe software, maybe give that a try? (bidnapper.com do a 15 day free trial, as used by professionals).

I won't be using it again for a while, if at all. Now I've got what I want.

I'm picking it up next Tuesday, so expect another thread with lots of lovely pics of my Cabanon Chambord.

What a wonderful tent for the price! Looks very spacious.

lovely! I was watching that one,thought it was unusual. I got a sunncamp maison from ebay £40.


You did well there. One went a few nights ago for £180!!!

I nearly fell off the sofa when I saw the final bid.

Canvas tent, paraffin light, petrol stove. Heaven
I'd rather be kayaking.
Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.

I've just come across this thread. Your Sunncamp looks amazing and hopefully you got all the little problems sorted and are enjoying it.

I wondered what the function of the little poles at the corners is? I can't see how they make a difference.

I've had a Sunncamp Ranch for years, it's a great little tent. I bought a larger tent (Gelert Horizon 8) to have more room for the kids but haven't got the heart to sell the little Ranch yet!

The bedrooms are under the slopes at the sides so the little poles create a bit of usable room at the sides and also stop the canvas roof from touching the grass.

It looks lovely - I almost had one a few years back from ebay but seller withdrew as I couldn't collect when they wanted... Happy now with the Cabanon but the Ranch looks a neat tent and easy to pitch.

Hope you can fix it simply and have lots of good times 'ranching out'.
