Anyone already using these?  Also looked at the Outwell kids bedroom inserts at the Calver Yeomans show - thought they looked horrendous?  What does everyone else think?

If my kids played in the bedrooms of our Vermont I think we'd be replacing the tent! They certainly are rough.

To be honest I like the kids to be outside enjoying the fresh air rather than staying inside. They do enough of that at home .

We have ordered a kid's room for the vermont xl in the hope that the black starry ceiling fabric will make our son sleep in more in the morning.  He's two and thinks as soon as he sees daylight "It's morning time Mummy!"-as he loves to shout.  Thank God we have black out blinds at home but God help us, and the unfortunate folks on the same campsite in May.  Don't know if it will help.  There is definately a gap on the market for dark inner tents for little children.  Why do manufacturers make them so dam light?  Obviously they've never been camping with toddlers.

Its better to regret things you've done than things you have never tried

We bought a kids bedroom (for Vermont XL) for our 5 year old. Yes expensive but it just adds to the fun for him (and us!).

We are off this morning for our first camp in the Vermont.

5 year old up already. He cant sleep - excited!

I too am hoping the dark starry sky will keep him in bed longer!
