Please can I get some advice?

We would like to buy an enclosed porch/awning that will fit our Outwell Indiana 8 (ideally blue).

Anyone have experience of one that has fitted/worked well?

Any advice greatly received.

Thanks,

Fi&Mark

If you can find one, the gelert sun porch should fit. It's a universal fit on the side if a tunnel tent and has a zip ou door if you want yo open it up. We looked at these when we had the indiana.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Could this only go on the side rather than the front as it is 3.5m wide (tent front is about 4m)?

We would really like a front porch that we can keep the cooking gear in if the weather isn't great.

Any other suggestions??

I sewed a couple of sides on the canopy because I was fed up with not being able to cook outside when it rained. Worked really well as long as the wind wasn't in the direction of the canopy.
Bought some grey ripstop polyester from eBay and stitched it to the canopy. Put ties down the sides to tie to the poles. Word of advice though, make sure it is a tight fit as the sides could get flappy.
