Have you considered the Indiana 6, can get some good prices on the few that are left from last yearand includes a canopy.

See here

We have had a look a the extensions and having seen them on site, but have decided that it's really not worth it as they do not give much extra room. You can't zip the front of the tent to it.

Once the poles and guy ropes are up you are left with quite a limited usable 'floor space.'

Ok, but consider how much the extension will add in terms of useable space, you can cook under a canopy away from the kids. If you want useable space to sit in and play for the kids i would focus on space inside the tent rather than an extension which has no groundsheet and is open to the elements at one end.

Just something to think about.

we have an indi 8 and the front canopy fits a cooker stand under with side table and doubleburner/grill (see gallery)and keeps you dry whilst cooking with plenty of air to let the fumes/grease etc go away, have even had the barbeque under in the rain, it lets the smoke out unlike an enclosed extension. At the other side it will also fit one of the blue picnic tables with the stools attcahed. if we need more shelter we put up a windbreak round the back.
