It looks lovely. Are the side panels still beige with blue on the bottom or have they changed the colourway for those this year too? I have ordered two side panels in the hope that they'll fit my Palamos, just waiting for them to come from France.

Its great, big enough for the 3 of us, but not too big that I can't put it up on my own, now its been up it has rolled down quite neat and small.
Jayner - The colour of the side panels is different this year, they match the beige? colour of the front of the tent, I have ordered the other one, as I just know I won't find one to match if I leave it,
They have sold out of the Barbados and only had 2 panels left at Attwolls yesterday, they said they tried to get some more from France but can't get any!
Would have thought they would make the side panels in the green colour so that they continue to match the outer canvas, like they did with the old ones
So are they a tan colour like the front of the tent, or are they just selling the old type which are cream and blue border? (like below)

mzzy, I like your idea of putting a breathable groundsheet at the front of your Barbados, I think I have some hiding in my loft from my caravanning days - must dig it out. You asked me what carpet I used for my Barbie on my pyramid thread, I use my old carpet from my old Sunncamp Evolution 600DL tent which is not a bad fit at all. Hope you enjoy your new tent.
Beautiful tent mzzy. Congratulations on your "Very Sensible Investment" I'm sure you're gonna love it. I just got my Guadeloupe and am over the moon with it and haven't even been camping in it yet. Will be this weekend tho

So you told the boss your late arrival was due to unusually heavy traffic did you grumpy
Congrats, they really are fantastic tents. Off on our 3rd outing to Rivendale this Friday in our Guadeloupe and can't wait. Really like the idea of having a groundsheet in front of tent too!!
