anyone?? 

me and my 8yr old son attempted to put it up yesterday but far too windy and needs another adult really! its rather large so may re-sell!!

Hi Angelfish,

We have the Garonne & OMG!! what a beast eh?  When we first had it it took us about 1 hour 20 mins to put up but now we can do it in about 50 mins. To be honest it would be very difficult to put up with just 1 adult & even with the 2 of us we fall out (i should have been taller!!!  It's always my fault.... ask my hubby!!!)

But all said & done the tent is huge inside with loads of living area & 3 bedrooms with great height. The only problems we found is theres no built in ground sheet so when it rains it's not much fun! Also there is no porch area as such.... which means muddy shoes get taken into the tent & can be a bit messy.

Can i also say if you paid £50 you got a real bargain!!!

Hope you have fun. Let me know how you get on xxx  Lou xx

Hi,

We have also recently brought the Royal Garonne 6 and are going to attempt a few days away in it next week. The only problem is we brought it 2nd hand with no instructions and dont seem to be able to find some anywhere! We are going to have a practice tonight in the garden once the kids are in bed but would appreciate as much info/help as possible before we go for real, dont think the kids will be too impresed at having to hang around for hours watching mum and dad making a mess of things!

Hi there.  We have just purchased this tent second hand too after reading good reviews.  It looks in v. good condition and we are keep to try it out.  Only 1 problem... there are no instructions!  Can anybody help please.  Ideally, we'd like to get our hands on a copy of the instructions.  We'd happily pay anyone who would be willing to photocopy their own copy.  If you can help, please reply!!!

Thanks so much.
