yes, we had one and the best bit was the small pack size, ease of erection and it fitted in everything we needed it to. We only sold it on as it didnt get much use.

Cheapest I have seen them is £35 from Camping and General. HTH

I have the cotton XL version, great addition to our kit, £55.99 inc postage www.caravanstuff4u.co.uk

Cooking in a utility tent is much safer.  Obviously you have the same fire risk as in your tent but there is likely to only be one person cooking in it rather than the whole family.  Also if your fifty quid utility tent goes up you havent lost your beloved outwell indiana.

I have just upgraded for the double outhouse to the cotton xl double outhouse, it has steel poles and is much sturdier.  £55.99 incl. postage off ebay.

Plus, you need to pitch the utility tent a fair distance from your tent - otherwise if it goes up you could lose your tent anyway. As long as you don't have them side-by-side, it's MUCH safer to cook in a utility tent, all you would lose if it went up would be the tent and it's contents - which won't include other people, or be a £600 tent...

Also it's the smell & steam thing, who wants to be smelling garlic prawns all night long??
