Does anyone know where I can get hold of a replacement groundsheet (for the living area) of a Vango Venture 500. It's not a sewn in one it clips onto the poles and is totally separate.

Lent the tent to someone and they burnt a hole in the groundsheet !!

Tried the Vango web and no joy. Or alternatively can anyone recommend another make/model that would fit ?

Thanks Helen

Don't know if this will help but have you thought of buying a footprint and putting it underneath your groundsheet? It won't clip on but might help if you cannot get a replacement groundsheet. Outdoorworld direct have them for £17.99 that fit the Tamor which is the updated version of your tent.

Just incase any other VV500 owners were interested Vango replied - they don't have any replacement groundsheets for that model - so thanks Scoltyhill I'll try your suggestion - failing that go outdoors are now selling the VV500 For £59.99 - might even buy a new one !?

Have you tried http://www.tentspares.co.uk/ they are the official spares supplier for Vango as I was directed there by Vango when I needed a replacement roof pole for my VV500. They may not have what you want on the website but when I called them they did have the item in stock.
