Good call. I think you will be all right . Spent many happy hours around Bakewell, before the organ donors came along . I haven't been there for five years now . If you like good beer ,you will be fine . And Bakewell Pudding .

Hello all... just joined this site having googled "Coleman Mackenzie x6" and have read all the previous posts with interest.. our Coleman x6 should arrive tomorrow....

A few questions for all you season'ed pro's out there regarding the Coleman x6....Do I need to get a "footprint" groundsheet, if so, from where..?  I searched for a while on-line and didnt see anything .. plenty for the Vango equivalents though...    I did read in the posts somebody suggests just getting a standard tarpulin from B&Q.. is that generally the best way forward?

We go camping this weekend, weather permitting, and hope to do a dry run beforehand.. I promise pics if we manage to get it up.. so to speak...!

Thanks

Paul

You don't need a footprint. It saves having to clean the groundsheet , and can offer a little extra protection from underneath.It can also aid you in pitching, giving a sense of where you could lay your tent out .Green garden tarpaulin from B&Q at about £7 is quite adequate . Oh and welcome to the forum !! Another inspired Coleman choice!

I thought that this tent had a electric entry point  (according to the catalogue) but can't find it anywhere.  Can you guys find it?  Is a stanley knife the only option (joke)?

I believe you . It probably says in microscopic writing , specifications subject to change !! Worth emailing amazon about this, they may give you some additional discount.
