I take you mean Norwich Camping.

I can't help about Norfolk retailers,but if you are have set your mind on a canvas frame tent then imo there is only one tent maker to consider(in this country)....Cabanon.
Although you mind be struggling to find what you are looking for this late in the season.

This is reduced to £695

If you don't mind a second-hand tent, there are some good bargain frame tents on ebay at the moment. Let's face it, canvas frame tents can last 30 years, so even a ten year old tent will be worth buying. Also it will give you a chance to consider exactly what style of canvas tent you prefer, before you pay out megga bucks for a brand new one 17

hi, have you looked round at your local car boots too. we have seen loads of tents at our local ones recently and i picked up my 6 berth3, bedroomed frame tent for £30 , complete with all pegs, curtains and 2 sleeping bags and water container. my daughter and i put it up at home and i am so pleased with it. the people who we purchased it off have obvioiusly looked after it . its clean and complete so i think we got a real bargain. my friend and step daughter have just got dome tents and after having a practise run with them i know which tent i prefer and thats definately the frame tent. for size, height and space its great. we have also picked up loads of bargains at the carboots and local £1 shops. cant wait to get out and use it all now. good luck with your tent.
