Hi

Just purchased a 2008 Sun Valley 6, £339 inc kids room & carpet! Bought now as it looks as though the SV range has been dropped from the Outwell 2009 range and many places didn't have stock left. Don't know why as it looks like this is a great tent range (hopefully).

Another reason for buying now was the prices of 2009 tents are sky high. It looks like the nearest equivalent to the SV is the "avantgarde" arkansas at £560!! (Plus comes in that rather attractive mocha colour - not)

Anyway can't wait for the weather to wam up so we can try out the new purchase.

Try Sk Leisure, just bought Sun Valley 6 with carpet, kids room and side extension for £350 delivered.

Hi

Claud - yes it was SK camping where we purchased ours from - over the phone. Very good prompt delivery. Had to get the footprint from PJ Camping (or intertent) though as none left with SK.

Good luck

Hello tin pockets

We have had it out of the bag yet but not unfolded so cannot confirm 100% about the presence of the standard inner. The kids room comes in a separate stuff sack packed in with the tent. The box it came in (plus storage bag) are all marked "Sun Valley 6/with kids" so they are obviously packaged this way in the factory. Sorry I can't be more help - waiting for some dry weather to take to the local park to take a proper look, Try SK - they should be able to give you a definitive answer.

Also worth noting that the poles came in a separate box a day later; we were getting anxious when we unpacked the tent and couldn't find them.

We loved our SV6 when we used it last summer. It also took a battering from a strong wind and we thought we'd lost it, it bent over flat, but it then just popped back up righting itself. Couldn't believe it!  The kids room does come in a separate box. When putting it in, you unclip the inner and roll it into a long sausage shape and then clip that down. The kids room is attached to the inner tent clips then.  My children love the kids room and I like the cheery colours, just wish they did other versions for the other bedroom!

I was expecting to see other tent manufacturers following suit and doing their own kids room versions this year .... have any done this, do you know?
