Hope somebody can help,
We want to buy a new tent but would like to look round them first (you just can't get a good enough idea from looking at photo's on the net).We live in Kidderminster, Worcestershire and we only know of 2 places that set tents up for you to look round local to us, that's a place just outside Droitwich and a place at Wolverhampton.The only other we know of is in Bristol.
If anybody knows of anywhere else thats not too far from where we live please could you let us know,we would really appreciate it.
Thank you to any who reply

Try logging onto Yeomans web site they camping show all over the country, there may be one near you and they have a sale on now.

Why not make a day of it and travel(even if it's far) to a place like Go Outdoors , to see them all on display is much better and makes it far easier to choose your ideal tent

Enjoy yourself it's later than you think !

Woudn't bother with Towsure - we live 5 minutes away and I'm always in there.  At the moment the only large family tent on display is the Suncamp Vario 600 - almost all of their tents have now sold out for the season.  Would definiately try Yeomans and Go Outdoors (both at Wolverhampton).  Happy shopping!

Hi

I dont know if anyone has had any experience of tentastic a website that sells tents etc. Basically I telephoned them on Friday to purchase a gelert beyond and they took all my details, including my bank card details and said that they would send me a confirmation e-mail but i have not yet received one.  I have also tried many times today to contact them by telephone and it is saying that the number is no longer in service.  Needless to say I am a bit concerned now.  The tent is suppose to be arriving on Monday, I am suppose to be going away monday tea time camping with my family.

Can anyone offer me any comfort with this!!!!!  Thanks
