We have a Starcamp awning & have bought the tall annexe.  We'd intended for our 14yr old son & his mate to sleep in there when we go to France but looking at the dimensions (only 110cm wide & can't find anything on width of the inner) I'm not sure it'll be enough room for them.  Does anyone else sleep 2 adult sized peeps in one?  What do they sleep on (again, restricted by with)?

Thank you!!

I have an apache tall annexe and the inner tent looks like its a standard inner, but not sure if its the correct one for it . Havent used it for sleeping in yet .

You wont fit 2 single airbeds in it ,but you might fit a 140cm double airbed in one, but the foam roll mats or the self inflating mats are ususally 60cm wide .

Thanks for that beefysmum.  But, unless I'm reading it wrong, even they would be too wide if the annexe is only 110cm wide

Oh yeah , if it is only 110 wide . These      foam mats are 50cm gelert

and          self inflating mats these are also 51cm so theyd fit .

I have york foam mats which are 60 wide , but two of them fitted inside my inner tent .

For some reason inner tent manufacturers have a weird idea of the space required for two or three persons we bought a 3 man inner for our awning 200cm x 180cm and was just big enough for our 2 girls - I suspect your Inner would be about 200cm x 120cm (2 man) Inner tents very often have to encroach on the awning space when used with an annexe

Thank you, thank you, thank you beefysmum!  The self-inflating ones look just the job!

Rune Caster - completely agree.  I think they must base their sizes on stick-insects!  We used a pup tent last year & decided to buy the 3 man (Vango) to give them a bit of extra space.  Good job we did cos the double airbed was a very snug fit.  How you'd sleep 3 people comfortably in that space I have no idea!

We do have a 5 night trip to Oxfordshire where we're taking DS friend before France so think we'll take the full awning & annexe & see how they get on.  At least in Oxford we should be able to find somewhere to buy another annexe if we have to!
