This looks a fantastic tent. Would like to be it on-line, but a lot of places seem to be out of stock. Can anyone recommend where I can get this tent from? And of course the cheapest price possible!!!
Thanks

I got mine quick for fear of it selling out as expected. Have you tried Towsure or Outdoor Megastore?

Woah! Yeah the Outdoor Megastore has the tent and carpet. Thanks! Now should I check with my husband or just buy it!!?
Do you find it be a good tent? And easy to pitch. Just husband and I and two small children running round like nutballs!

Go outdoors have them in stock for 399. Not sure if this is cheap or not but there is a further 15 % off this weekend and they were also doing 20 % off carpets & footprints when brought with the tent. Dont forget if outdoor megastore is cheaper they will price match and deduct 10 %.

Yeah we love ours, lots of space inside, good looking tent, bit different from others which I like. I know its good in the wind, put it up first time in 45mph winds, coped really well.

Just have a couple of practice pitches before you go away, it can be slightly tricky first time you get it up.

 We got ours from Outdoor Megastore. Got carpet and footprint aswell all in for just under £400. We're really impressed it and has loads of room - just be aware it's a bit bigger than some standard pitch sizes so check when you book. Like someone else has said, have a couple of practice pitches.

So sorry to get you all excited - genuine mistake!

We paid £319 for the tent, about £40 for the footprint and just under £60 on price match for the carpet from go outdoors.
