Thanks for info! Looking forward to it arriving. Planning on putting 2 double airbed in, on eitherside of the support pole. Would they fit do you think. Not mega wide ones, about 135cm width each.

Thanks again!

Hmmm....possibly,if they're not the really big suckers! In the picture my daughter is sat on a double airbed,so i guess you could have another either side? Its quite a roomy tent,but due to its odd shape it takes a bit of faffing to get it all sorted(adds to the fun)....we just chuck it all in and kip anywhere!

Thanks again, if one fits to one side, then I guess another will fit the other.

I suppose its pretty flexible really, just being one big living/ sleeping area.
