Morning all, I've just bought a vango taiga 600xl and I'm looking for a carpet for the two bedrooms on the right. Whilst looking (and failing to find what I'm looking for!) I've notice lots of the bedrooms in tents are 210x280 so why isn't there a standard carpet available?

In my previous tents I've used picnic blankets but they slip about quite a bit so I think this time I would prefer "fitted" carpet!

If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated, Amy

Would you go for the 240x270 one?

I do have text slippers! I just prefer something else between me and the ground sheet X

Hi we use picnic blankets too , but just put a 2 inch square piece of double sided carpet tape in each corner when putting them down ,seems to do the trick , we also do the same with the main tent carpet too Sun

Just ordered one of the 270x270 ones
here for our Cabanon (we remove one of the dividers and make a large double bedroom)

They seem excellent value and add a little bit of colour and glamour!!

We got an "Outwell Wolf Lake 5" Tent carpet for the Bedroom of our Cabanon Biscaya 370.

Took some measurements, and gave them to a lady on our local market, and a week later I had a made to measure carpet, perfectly hemmed etc, £10 charge for the work done.

Same lady also altered an "Outwell Minesota 6" Tent carpet for the living area.

That was back in 2009, and both carpets are still like new, despite being used every year.
