Hello,

    I've bought a Gelert Lakesbury 5 and am chuffed with it - the only thing I think its missing it a canopy/porch (like the ones you can get for the Horizon 6 etc etc).  Has anyone found one that will fit on the Lakesbury?

 

Thanks,

 

Matt

Looks a good match and choice of two colours. Also it could be used with future tents .

Cheers for the advice. Have had a look and that looks pretty sound.

Got the carpet myself - fits well in our tent. I'd take yours back if it doesn't fit!

Nope. It fits from the main entrance and runs upto the start of the bedrooms - it literally fits perfectly. Basically it covers all the floor that isn't covered by the 2 bedrooms.

Sounds like yours is a duff!
