Hi, does anyone have or know about a sun canopy for this tent? I need one before the start of the season, OR a tent with a pyramide (that way I have one for spares!..).
Please let me know.

Just been in the tent review section to see if there was any info on the Pyramide 6.Unfortunately no,but for the Pyramide 4 the 1st reviewer mentions using the extra awning/extension with his. Not too sure, but if the 4 has this extra awning/ extension you should be safe to assume the 6 has one too.The 4 is listed as discontinued, which may be true of the 6...There maybe an awning/extension for the 6 out there in the darkest corner of e bay land..Or you could put a request for one in the free ads on here...

PS: Maybe an E mail to the Cabanon Company asking if they have some??..If the tent has been discontinued, they may give you one at a discount if they have some???

Why not use a tarp instead?

It's a problem I have too. In that I'd like a canopy for my pyramide 6, I've emailed different suppliers with no joy. Looked to see if a cabanon barbados would fit, but the measurements don't fit.

I'm always on the look out, but as there are a few of us wanting a canopy, it puts the price up because of demand.

I have the obelink cotton tarp which I may adapt, or horror of horrors I wondered if I could match a gazebo, it would have to be the right sort though.

I think camping is all about adapting to our needs, I hope you find one, let us know if you come across any stock, else I'll see you on ebay for a bidding war if one comes up

They used to produce a canopy for the Pyramide 6, because I can remember when Camping and General were selling them off for £12! Yes, it's many years ago and no, I didn't buy one, but I asked if it would fit the Guadeloupe we had back then (it wouldn't, so I didn't buy!).

Ebay is probably your best bet.

Thanks for all your helpful replies. It does occur to me that getting a tarp made to fit might be the answer, the mudwalling might present a challenge but in reality I suppose this is the best option. If I take this challenge on, I'll keep you all posted, and of course keep the measurements!

Thanks again, Campingtim!

Surely it just attaches to the top poles so a new model should be fine. Look here
http://www.theforestcampingcentre.com/camping-accessories/tent-and-awning-accessories/cabanon-tent-accessories

If the holes are in the wrong place thats easily sorted. However the price is a lot for just a piece of Canvas and 2 poles!
Or buy the Pyramid 6 in Cambridge advertised on Preloved it comes with a canopy I think.
