Hi I am looking for some advice and indeed may seem a bit of a stupid question.
We have a Gelert Horizon 6 tent and have at the minute a porch extension where we put our table and some storage stuff and somewhere to sit a night with the door open to avoid the midges and come rainy weather our kitchen will go in here too. So it's invaluable really!

However I have seen a Horizon canopy for a bargain price and this would be ideal for cooking when wet etc so here's the silly question can we use them both at the same time? DH thinks not as the straps go over the opposite side of the tent i.e where any canopy would have to go and vice versa.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

We have Zenobie 6 and use Gelert porch. Doors both sides of tunnel tent but not facing, so cant see why you cannot have 2 porches. I think Horizon same as our 2009 Zenobie. Would need v large pitch, with car etc. Were you thinking of same size porch on opposite side or smaller. Never thought of it myself, we have enough space.
