I've decided on the tent from obelink (tent-tents.com) and I'd like the beige cotton tarp to go with it.
The link is this one for the grey tarp it does say if you want the beige the product number is different it's 2759.
I've gone through the online ordering step by step, but no where does it give me the option to change, just wondered if anyone on here has the beige tarp and how they ordered it.
I don't want the grey one by mistake as it will cost to send it back!
you just go to the caravan/awning canopies tab and both tarps are there, we've got the beige one and it's great, good luck
mmmmh just had a look and can't see the one we have, wonder if they have sold out of the beige, maybe worth an e-mail them just to make sure before sending your order in

Just looked & it says that specific product not available any longer ...but i get it when go the the Dutch site. Let me check with hubby ( has his uses lol ...luckily hes Dutch ).
hiyas, the beige 1 thats available on the English site is a polyester 1 ....not sure if thats what you were after. The Dutch site is pretty much laid out the way that the English version is its plus €4.95 extra on top for Ver. Koninkrijk ( Groot Britannie - Great Britain). Click all the same boxes that you would for the English site . IF you need more help & going to use the Dutch version & are unsure ...ill be around a little late to help translate ...if necessary.
Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but Love_Camping, did you get your beige tarp from Obelink ok? I'd like the same one and like you, found that it 'doesn't exist' (hmm) in English but is in stock in Dutch! Just wanted to check that they do indeed ship this item to the UK, unlike the bell tents...
And if you did get it ok, how on earth did you select UK shipping?! I can't see a way to do that. Thanks! :-)
I'm new to this forum a few weeks ago, and so far have just lurked, but saw your post and felt brave enough to jump in!
I ordered the beige tarp from Obelink using their French site (in the vain hope my GCSE French would help!) I tried to order through the English site first but after contacting them was told they weren't allowed to sell it on that site. I ordered it last Thursday evening and it arrived Monday morning, was able to track its progress through their courier website.
No problems at all, can't recommend it highly enough and all for 69 euros

That's useful to know Blownin' as a fellow UKCS member told us on a meet recently that when he tried to order the tarp through the English site (and I assume you mean Tent-tents), he was told the same thing, but he was also advised to contact Belltent UK as they were now the sole UK seller.

PS: A very useful first post btw - welcome to the forum
Hello, yes it arrived, within 4 days of ordering, for some reason I thought I had posted it arrived, so sorry for not confirming it went ok especially after the help I received on here.
Trying to remember what I did, I think I went through the English site (tent-tents) as a dummy run, then then went on their Dutch site with the English version guiding me through if that makes sense.
I would be surprised if they stop shipping altogether!
Anyway I remember panicking about the confirmation email, because I googled translate, it seemed my card had not been accepted, it turned out that the translation was wrong, I'll see if I can find that thread.
By the way, in case anyone is thinking of buying a bell tent, just to say that I ordered a 5m bell tent from Obelink, using their Dutch site, in the last week or two, and it has arrived. This is odd as for the last couple of years, it apparently wasn't possible to get one from there. So things may have changed recently....
Hi all, thanks for the advice on buying the tarp. Ordered from their French site late Tuesday evening and it has just been delivered. Great service from them and the courier
