Wish I'd been on here when that thread about these was going, as this is almost identical to one I tried to order from De Witt (?) but they would not deliver to the UK. Love the fact that you can have both sides up to make a large canopy...at this moment I'm the same colour as the tent!....it's lovely, pitched great.

I'm in Norfolk this weekend so if it is too claustrophobic............[;)]

The Relum Task Force range is almost identical, even down to the side-opening extension...

Hope this helps!

Thanks for that Liddenham..I had seen the Relum ridge but never ever seen the extension which is what I really want!

I will investigate further!

De wit have replied... They will send the Ibiza to England at a cost of €35.56

So the total with the tent is €160.56

I assume that doesnt include the groundsheet though but I didnt ask for that lol

Angie

  -------------------------

Sorry Angie, I read the thread backwards and have just seen your reply!

Thank you so much...that sounds great....you must have a way with words!

I am sourly tempted as I presume that will be cheaper than the relum, even with postage.

How would I best go about ordering do you think? Should I contact them first by email or can I order on line straight away....last time I tried and messed it up there did not seem to be an option for UK delivery.

I am away for all of next week so will probably have to hold off ordering until I get back in case there delivery is super quick.

Thanks for your help and sorry Fostermum for going off topic a bit!

This is the copy and paste of the email :)

 

Wij kunnen de De Wit Ibiza naar Engeland verzenden en de kosten hiervoor bedragen €35,56.

Het wordt dus in totaal €125,- + €35,56 = €160,56 om de tent in Engeland te krijgen.

Indien u dit wilt dan verzoek ik u om telefonisch contact met me op te nemen.

 

Met vriendelijke groet,

 

Bas Wagenaar

Afdeling tenten.

The first bit is postal costs

The second bit is the total for tent and postage

And the last bit says basically.. call us :)

OH tried to order one online and it would let him select postage to GB

So if you want an Ibiza then you shall have one :)

I dont know what their payment options are from ourside the Netherlands but I am sure credit cards speak an international language lol

If you are still wary about calling to find out about payment etc, holler and either I or OH will give them a call

Thanks for your help Angie (and OH) it is really appreciated.

I now realize what I did wrong when trying to order before (sorry I can't say what, as you'll think I'm even simpler than you did before!) and thanks to your advice I will hopefully have my ideal tent in a few weeks.

It's actually bigger and more substantial than I first thought, at 23kg and 5 metres in length.

Fostermum, if it looks half as good in the flesh as your Cabanon pics I'll be chuffed!....just wondering if I can get away with stopping off in Norfolk for a test drive before I order......[;)]

Thanks all.

The person who posted back in 2009 hasn’t been around for many years. I think your tent is a canvas ridge tent? I had a Cabanon one very similar; no, no instructions & no photos. I’ll try to remember how I pitched it 40 years ago (!) but I camped solo, so it wasn’t difficult.
Other folks might be more helpful than me.
