Ok we know that we now want an Aspen but which one?  Is it worth the extra for the 700.  My thoughts are that two children cannot sleep in the one bedroom in the 500 therefore taking up the 'spare' room?  Any thoughts.  Have looked at the other threads on this but nothing on it.

Exactly the reason we chose the 700 i.e.

According to the footprint drawings, 2 kids on a double airbed in the small bedroom of the 700 fits snugly. It has to be a normal airbed, not one of the bigger ones.

(havn't tried it yet, its comes out of the box this weekend)

So, we would say the extra is worth it.  It did takes us about 3 weeks to decide though.

Hope that helps

Cheers.  Our two sleep on ready beds so should be ok.  You'll have to let us know.  Have been trying to find a 700 up in the south west but no luck so far.  Going to the Taunton Leisure Show at Exeter Racecourse this weekend so here's hoping!
