Looks great, you have a very similar set up to me but I had to get rid of my sofa as I was forever blowing it up and it didn't matter how hard we tried we could never find a puncture. Like you though we don't rough it when camping lol ------------- live life for the moment!

Gorgeous set up - I wouldn't want to move from the tent if I had that one! Serious tent envy here and its not even an Outwell
Thank you, the Outwell was next door (my brother's) and we had their kids in our tent more often than not, relaxing on the sofa haha!

We must have been about 5 pitches down from you. We're still there now though (the Montana 6 and caravan that arrived mid Thursday).
Ah right, yes passed you with Bailey when going for a walk down the lane. Looks like you've had a nice day today and it seemed much warmer lastnight than it had been. Bet it was quiet lastnight?

Question: Does your 'consevatory' have straps to attach it to the main tent?
In your first pic it looks that way but might just be how it appears.
We have a similar porch but when putting over the tent it always leaves a few inches gap which is not good when the rain comes. Wondering if attaching a couple of velcro strips to attach to the poles would work.------------- If you see a family struggling to put up the tent then it must be us!

The edge is elasticated and goes over the end of the tent and then it is guyed down on both sides. We found it was better to hook it onto one of the other poles further down the tent. We tried leaving the guy ropes on the end of the tent off, but when we had the heavy rain and some wind we found we needed to secure them through the extension, guying just under the front windows.
