Just had a thought, is it going to be a spare pole that can be adjusted to fit longer poles if needed?  Not sure about the plastic clip on the end though, only place that has them is the kitchen extension and not really a vital part if it breaks while camping.

I wonder if it's a wardrobe pole? I think the Cabanon one is a bit like you describe?

Glad you've got it, don't forget the pictures once you pitch it

thought I'd sussed out the wardrobe pole as being a pole with string and clips attached that hangs down from the frame above but I may be wrong!  Thanks Piglet.

Hmm yes, I think you're right, that does sound like the wardrobe pole?

Ah well, suppose we'll find out if it's a vital bit or not once I've got it up in the garden.  Thanks for the help.

thanks Linda, yes it is big, I was a bit shocked at the size of the bags it came in but I am looking forward to putting it together.

Its a storm prop leg if my memory serves me correct and clips on the framme in the centre at the angle bewteen the roof lining and the bedrooms to provide extra support to the roof.

Have Fun with it

Well, I put it up on my own in the garden this morning, took me an hour and a half to put the tent up, put the inners and curtains in and mostly peg it down.  It is HUGE!!  It is too big I think realistically for me, 3 kids and the dog for 3/4 nights, would be fine for a week or so though so I think it's going to go back on Ebay.  Took some pictures of it so hopefully I should get the listing right.  If it doesn't sell then I may keep it and use it in the summer.

Thanks for the help everyone, might try a tunnel tent next!

Well, if anyone has read the above messages and is wishing that they had one to play with as well, please go and have a look at my ad. I'm hoping to sell mine for £100 and have put it up on ebay (timed to start midnight Sat 2nd Aug) as well as here.

Just came across this old thread, you should have shouted louder Paul, I would have come round and helped you pitch it had I known you'd posted earlier, I'm in Ashbourne too.  Shame you only got £30 for it, next time pitch the tent so you've got a photo of it put up.

We had a Pavillion xl and I loved it. There was so much space, and windows all round......I sold it because I wanted a tunnel tent....but kinda wish I'd kept it because I think it was one of the best tents I'd bought. I do love my NL but the pavillion seemed to have bags more room and the benefit of 3 bedrooms.

Shame you got rid really, only thing was it was a real bu99er to put up!!
