Hi

Does anyone know anything about the size of the bedrooms in this tent - it says they're 140cm wide which would just about fit my two single lilos in.  Is there any gap round the edge?  Also how slopy is the roof?  Will my nose be touching?

Unfortunately still haven't managed to see this tent up anywhere!

Final question just thought of how big is the rear door?

Thanks in advance - hope somebody has this tent!

Hi!

We have a 2006 model and the pods are just wide enough for a double mattress. You get a foot or so at the top for books and things.

On the '06 model the rear door (assuming you aren't using the third pod) has a single zip in the centre so access isn't as good as the front door (although you can, of course, tie the flaps back).

Thanks for that Jon that's useful.

One last question - is there a zip on the inner tent so you can still get out the back door if the inner is up.  We would hope to use this as a storage area but would still like access to the back.

Thanks again.  Joan

Not to worry Vicky, she's got the 07 model, whereas mine's the 06.

I'm still going to enjoy it when I finally escape to the IOW...!
