Good evening,

First time camper here!

I hoping someone might be able to help, I’ve just brought a Sunncamp Platinum family Vario 900 second hand, however when I look at campsites they ask the size of your tent and I have absolutely no idea on the size, would any of you happen to know? Also it didn’t come with any instructions on how to put it up where would I find these please?

Thank you

Have you tried googling it? Websites which stock (or have previously stocked) tents often have the dimensions in the description.

You may be able to find instructions, or a YouTube video showing how to pitch that particular tent, or similar.

Failing that, if you find an email address or phone number for Sunncamp, you could ask them for the dimensions and to send you a set of instructions 😊

Pitch it like any other tunnel tent, doing the side bedroom wings last. If you google the Cross Camping pitching method, Gary shows the easiest - and arguably the best - way to pitch a tunnel tent.
