I couldn't settle if The Boy was in a separate bedroom, even if he is just the same distance away, so can the Monty 4 be configured for a 1x 3 or 4-berth bedroom pod rather than 2x2 ? Or would OH have to sleep on his own ?!

Hiya,

When we went to see the monty 4 before buying online (still waiting for delivery) I don't think it could to be honest. The bedrooms are individual and self contained with the divider actually going straight in to the groundsheet - not a curtain type divider i've seen some have.

Maybe someone else will come along with more of an idea, i'm only going off a 10 minute viewing 2 weeks ago!

I think you might be better off with a monty 6?

Hi Alison

The middle divider can be unzipped and tied out of the way so you could have 1 large bedroom . This is what we do mainly cos by the time you get a double airbed in the bedroom there is no room to move ! Hope that helps.

Well well well!!! Learn something new every day! I didn't notice that when I went to look - we were more interested in the quality!

We unzipped ours right round and tied it out of the way. There was a fabric lip on the bottom (if you see what i mean??) So you couldn't actually put an airbed over the divider part....we tried but it didn't fit! However that way you could keep an eye on your son

I have noticed for the 2006 model that it has a 'universal 2 + 2 bedroom', maybe that is the one that can open up, as opposed to earlier models which are definitely and only separate pods ?

Just to echo the above, on the 2006, you can zip the two compartnments together to make one compartment, with or without a zipper divider.

However, the divider lip curves making it that you have to have your air beds either side of the divider, but, as Macca points out, not on the centre line.

You therefore can have a 140cm double air bed one side and a single or another double the other side of the lip. Frustrating for us, as we wanted to use three seporate air beds, but at 80cm wide one would have to go over the centre line, which it can't.

..... so we bought a Montana 6. A bit of an overkill you might say, but given the heavy  weight of the 4, the 6 is not that much more to transport in weight and size. You don't get Montanas for ease of transportation!

We have a 2005 Montana 4 and ours has one big bedroom with a zip down divider, 2005 was the first year of manufacture so I don't know where these earlier models come from. Maybe there are a few of them out there but they will be very rare.

Also there is no floor lip so you can have your airbed anywhere you want in the bedroom area.
