Ventura annexes are still available - or they were when I bought mine from Broad Lane Leisure last year

Just checked their website and they are still showing them. Might be an idea to contact them and check that the zips on these will fit your awning. I found their customer service excellent when I was trying to buy a new pole for my Isabella awning.

I've just sold my Isabella awning anexxe that we used with a Ventura awning, I have to say they are brilliant but expensive. I bought a universal one once and have to say it was poor. We only used it in Cornwall one year and whilst out one day we had heavy rain & it collapsed bending all the poles. My advise buy a second had tall Isabella or Ventura, it will last for years look great and you will always get your money back when you sell it on

Yes, I use a Ventura Annexe with an Isabella Awning so zips must be the same. Isabella Annexes tend to be dearer than Ventura. I bought a brand new Ventura one for £275. I would have bought second hand but couldn't find one at the time and needed it quickly. If you are concerned, could you take a side panel from the awning and check before you buy? Make sure it's a side panel though as the front panel may not be the same zips.
