I guess the site's backsides are covered if they ask the customer for the guylines to be included, rather than guess everybody allows a meter all round, or whatever.
Put's the onus on the customer to ensure the site has the correct dims, and less chance of any comebacks.
Makes sense to me, and can fully understand why they do it.
Must admit, I've never been asked that direct question, but have been asked the general "How big" question. I usually reply "5 x 3 plus guys, so I'll need at least 7 x 5 just for the tent, plus we have a large MPV". On occasion, I may also add "We'd also like to add a kitchen tarp to the side, so ideally, we'd need 7 x 8, plus car".
Similarly, I'd like to think that's my backside covered too!
Suffice to add, we have never had a problem as such, although the tightest we've been was France last year.
Bigger tent, and guys were pretty much at the boundary. Luckily the car could be parked outside of the boundary, without affecting others. That was non booked/discussed prior to arrival on spec, so all our own risk!
EDIT:
I notice this thread is struggling to fit us in. Perhaps the mods should have asked us for the dimensions of our posts!
