Kampas polycotton tents tend to be a different colour than the polyester range. For example the 2015 Kampa Croyde polyester tent was grey whereas the 2015 Kampa Croyde polycotton was beige. Find out the year of the rent and then determine what colour Kampa used that year for the different versions.

I think the way to tell the difference is the polycotton ones are called the classic I might be wrong but all the classics I've seen are polycotton and yes most are a different colour

Yes the Kampa polycotton tents are branded the Classic version, but eBay sellers have a habit of calling things by the wrong name so just to be sure, check the colour.

Depends on the age. Our Kampa (Holkham) was not called "Classic" (they hadn't introduced that range at the time), was blue (just like the polyester version) but was polycotton. I think ours was new in 2011.

We are considering selling our polycotton Kampa Frinton 4 Classic, with front extenson. Will put it in the adverts section on here when we know what to ask for it. Haven't a clue. 😕
It's been stored in the spare bedroom, only test pitched in the garden.
We want a Karsten now, so selling everything we don't need or use to go towards it. Just thought I'd mention it as you're not far from us. We bought it the year they stopped making the frinton...but can't remember exactly. Someone on here will though.
