Isn't that part of jr leisure of Leicester? I would try the jr leisure website instead, you should get a response from them as well.

I'm not defending another retailer here but maybe they base their postage costs on weight, so if you add the tent and footprint together maybe their system adds the weight up and it tips the postage charge over into the £25.50. If you buy them on their own then maybe the weights keep them in a lower postage bracket...Sometimes it may work in your favour...?
Just a thought and I may well be totally wrong.

To be honest when I am spending a fair bit of money, I like to call the retailer for my peace of mind, most are a friendly bunch and I have ended up with a discount, a freebie or free postage that I would still have to pay via the internet.

Another reason is check the item is actually in stock..a constant problem with internet buying.

We purchased an 8 berth Vango tent, footprint and carpet from JR Leisure this week and it was £10 postage all in based on weight.
