Hi spikemike, sorry I don't know the tent, but chances are they are  porch poles for propping open the side door.  You can just see the door propped open in the manufacturers image here.

The poles I am looking at are in image 9 of the above reviews, they are VERY LONG about 7m in length they possibly will attach to the inside of the tent running from rear to front either side of the internal erected tent.

anyone with a Corado8 or possibly the Corado6 can you clarify....

Yep way toooo big for porch poles 

Looking at the images there are internal poles from front to back .

Good luck with it.

The Kampa Croyde also has 2 long poles running the full length of the internal roof to act as stabilizers
