Hi, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a windbreak please? I am on a bit of a budget but I would like a windbreak that has spikes to knock into the ground and guy lines to secure it. I have bought a couple but I have had to take them back because all that was keeping them up was the guy ropes and there is no way they would stand up to more than a gentle breeze! I have a Vango Meritsa 700 so ideally i need something that will be large enough to give some privacy accross the front. Any advice would be much appreciated! thanks in advance.

good old fashioned stripey thing from argos, bash it in the ground and if that doesn't look steady enough it comes with guy ropes & pegs 17

We splashed out on a Blue Diamond one - looks lovely but if I'm honest our old cheap stripey beach windbreaks are almost as good, just a bit noiser!

We have had the posh ones and even tried to adapt them by gaffa taping metal pegs onto the poles so we could knock them into the ground, we gave up and now also back to the old strpey ones

I bought one from Aldi, it looks ideal. Haven't tried it yet but it looks exactly like others so imagine it will be fine!
