Thanks for your replies.  Wisaccs, I have rung all the stores on the link, but no luck.

Tinny, Carver looks like it is in Derbyshire, and that's a 2 hour drive, but we may have to do that....

Joanne, I have rung Don Valley and they do indeed have the WL7 pitched.

Thanks all...

Does anyone know where I can view a WL5?

Is there anything you want to know in particular? We never found one but stood in a Bear Lake 4 (too small) a Bear Lake 6 (too big) and decided to chance it - no regrets

We bought a WL5 over the weekend!! It was a bargain - we hope.  Off a well known auction site, and it was too good a price to miss.  It has arrived this morning, and yet to take it out of the bags so fingers tightly crossed!

I'm glad you have no regrets blithe, we're hoping for the same, and can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to trying polycotton.  I want torrential rain and blazing sun and a force 6 gale all in a few days so I can try it out and hopefully feel smug

You should be OK with a few days in Wales or Cornwall then

I recommend getting the footprint groundsheet if you didn't already, with such a big tent (a) you don't want to be arguing about where to face/put it when it's halfway up, and (b) wiping down the bottom of the muddy ZIG is a pain when you have so much to set down and pack.

I'm sure that you'll feel very smug :)

Last year our Montana Lake dealt with all of those weather conditions in good old west Wales .

It then got trampled by dairy cattle and survived with just a torn window on the side entrance & a damaged pole .

WHAT A TENT !!!!!

Great buy , you must be made-up :)

Hope all goes well , let us know how you get on with it .

Hey thanks guys!  It is pitched in our garden at the moment, and is looking well!  We will be getting a footprint and carpet.  The lady I bought it off told me there was a footprint with it - and there isn't, never mind still got a bargain.  Also needs a minor repair to a bedroom pod. 

We bought a new side extension to go with it, and that is up too at the moment.

Blimey 34ford, trampled by dairy cattle -  that sounds very scary.  Lucky you weren't in it at the time.....the damage you describe is testament indeed to these Lake tents....
