We had a very wet week at Fforest fields over the last half term, but as usual the site was lovely & we're really pleased with our vermont xlp

Thank you both, Brickiemum it was so useful having the awning in the bad weather!
Paul+Kate was good to meet you, your tent was lovely, we were very jealous at the speed of your packing up lol! Loved the lights at the front too :)

Hi. Just noted the awning you have on the front of your Vermont. Looks great and thinking of doing the same. I currently have a Montana 6 canopy on the front which fits a treat and works well. however, liking the idea of a fully enclosed awning. Just got a couple of questions....
1) Did you have any problems fitting it to your Vermont? Does it clip nicely to the front pole or do you need to " tweak " it a bit?

2) Have you got any more pics to help inform my decision on getting one?

Any help or advice would be great.

Thanks

Good pics. Tent looks big enough for all the family and the car. Think you should christen it the Grange.....

Stockey, it works really well & clips on no problem, here's a couple of pics from our recent trip, not sure if they'll be much help.

Thanks Jujon.

Really helpful in seeing that it appears to fit almost perfectly and obviously trust your opinion and judgement based on what you have shown.

Looks like a no brainer that I will get one.

Appreciate your response and help with the pics.

Happy camping!! :-)
