Well i went to collect my tent that was offered to me on freecycle.
The tent turned out to be a Relum Paradiso/Pardiso not sure which is right as it says both names on paper label.
It looks like brand new, the poles are all marked but looking through the poles i have a feeling that some are missing. I hope to try to erect it later today or tomorrow.
If anyone has the above tent and has any instructions i would be obliged if they could give me some idea of the pole set up as i have a larger relum tent but this is totally different.
Oh wow! I've seen pics of the Paradiso, a bit different to the usual bungalows or pyramids, but a lovely tent nonetheless. And Relum are a very good make! Thats a reaaly great freecycle find
There doesn't look to be that many poles. from the pics so far, would be just a 4 pole frame with a ridge, plus the small riser poles at the bedroom corners, Might also be a couple of upright poles for the back window?

I was going to offer to call De Wit and ask them to email me pitching instructions for their Paradiso as it is the same shape but as you managed to get her up I wont :)
Was well happy when i picked it up and opened the bag with the poles in because as soon as i saw them i knew it was a Relum. We wanted a four berth tent for short breaks and this is ideal as we prefer frame tents.We have a Sunncamp Villa 4 but that does not have much living room so i plan to use that as a utility/cooking tent.
Reference the curtains i will leave that to the wife.
