Here Make sure you select Sahara 500 in the drop down box for a 5m bell tent, delivery takes a few days, if you haven't got a tarp they do one of those as well

Make your own. Felt pen tied to piece of string, draw your circle to size on a cheap large enough tarp. Put a hem all round, we sewed ours but you could tape it I suppose. Get an eyelet kit off ebay About £4 if I remember right, add them,for pegging out. Only thing we couldnt do without putting the tent on it 1st was the straight part at the front. So we just folded that under for 1st use. Then sorted that out when we got home. Just make sure its slightly smaller than your tents ground sheet.

We made ours from damp proof membrane. Laid out and cut round the ground sheet. First footprint that will actually save us from sharp items. Bit heavy though.

Used a pond liner for mine..

Folded it in half then cut a piece of rope just under 2.5m tied a marker to it and pegged it central
