We went camping at Filey over the Bank Holiday weekend. The weather was very blustery & we decided to take the awning down on our Outwell Montana 6. We noticed that the edge piping has come away from the fabric & on the tent a couple of the tabs that peg the tent down have torn off the tent. We have also developed a small leak. We bought the tent 2nd hand & unfortunately for some reason there wasn't a repair kit in with the tent. Where can I buy a repair kit? Would you recommend the Outwell kit or will any repair kit work? Does anyone know of anywhere in West Yorkshire that can repair tents as I'm not sure sewing the tabs on myself will withstand any future strong winds!

Thanks Rebecca x

I've used clingons to replace guying points very successfully. If you google them you'll find them.
