Can anyone tell me of any decent tent displays in west midlands ? ... Nobody seems to have any decent displays. ? Wanting to look at outwell tents suitable for a young growing family ... They did think Montana 6 but they saw a Hartford XL and liked the space ... They would just like to see more than 2 tents on display !

Check Yeomans, they do big displays was one near Burton last year that we went to and had around 40 tents on display - otherwise there is a Yeomans store at Wolverhampton and they display a fair few or go Outdoors at Wolverhampton but not as many displayed.

Just checked Yeomans camp shows, and one on at the moment at Duffield
Duffield Burley Meadows Farm, A6, Duffield, Derby, DE56 4FQ, ,
01332 843767 depends where you are and how far you want to travel, but think this is the one we went to last year.

This is the store we usually visit for looking - not necessarily buying!

Hi, take a look in this section Diary

2012 Yeomans Camping Shows 2012 21/03/2012 to 29/08/2012
If youre wanting that personal hands-on touch to your new tent or camping accessory purchase then why not pay a visit to one of the 25 Yeomans camping shows.

At each camping show you will find up to 100 tents on display from various manufacturers including Peakland, Outwell, Vango, Coleman & Sprayway giving you the chance to view hands-on each tent up close and personal, allowing you to make an informed decision with regards to the tent and how it may serve you.

In addition to the substantial display of tents, there will also be an on-site marquee jam packed with a whole array of camping equipment.

Friendly and knowledable staff will be available 8am to 8pm to help you choose the right equipment for your next camping holiday

Click on the link to see the full show dates and locations.

Cheers  Ratty

Winfields i would highly recommend, they have a huge selection at the one in Hull, so hopefully all the others would be the same.

My friend went over to Barrett's of Feckenham at the weekend and said half the tents were wrecked! They also went to Towsure in Halesowen, and there were more on display there.

we went to Chester (caseys) and although it was a long drive for us their selection of family tents was the best I have seen. I emailed before we went and they provided me with a list of the tents they had on display, very quick response on the email too.

Hi
We go to Jacksons of Arley, they have got a tent display, also I think its called outdoor focus in newport telford. If you look at Stafford outdoors leisure website they have tent displays at stafford cricket ground and sometimes Hollybush in Essington, another one is Tamworth camping,
Hope this helps
Debbie

Chriska .... We have our equipment ... Well untill I see something else I can't do without ... We want a display of tents so my son and his family can compare .. They liked Montana 6 but have now gone on to a Hartford XL .... And before they decide we thought finding a decent display would give them something to compare ... Nothing worse than buying and then seeing something better !

We bought our tent from Caseys, even though it's a long drive, but went to a Yeoman's show first.  Yeomans seem to display the popular family tents, but they are not necessarily the same tents at each display.  If you want to look at a particular tent, eg, the Harford XL, you might be best to ring Yeomans and ask if they will be exhibiting a Hartford XL at one of their current or up and coming displays.

(I wanted to see a tent in the new Ambiente range and I enquired at Yeomans today where I could see one and was told Darley Dale)
