I'm looking for a 'weekender' and would like to be able to see different tents already erected. Am in Blackpool and have been to the outdoor shop in Fleetwood and to Winfields in Haslington (where we got the Kyham).

Does anyone know of any other places in this area where to look?

Thanks in anticipation

Absolutely. Go to a really busy campsite, checkout the ones you want, and then buy at the best price.Easy

And campers love nothing more that showing off their tents ,so dont be afraid to approach the tent owners and ask questions and sneak a closer peak!

I don't know about in your area but I think sadly you're probably too late for this year as down here most of the displays are being taken down for the winter.

You'll have to spend the winter researching on the internet and then get out and see tents in the flesh next Easter!

Thanks for the replies so far. I must admit I didn't think of the option of just going to a site and having a good old nose around, good idea!

The camping shop in Blackburn has a large variety permanatly erected indoors, tents as well!!  it is called Outdoor Action in King St. but be warned it is expensive but ok for browsing.

Agree with the campsite suggestion, we got ours (vango 350 equinox) after studying the tents that get pitched half way up Ingleborough for 3 weeks in August so the caving group can run the winch that goes down Gaping Gill. If a tent can survive that, it can survive anything.
