Hi all,

First visit of the year. It's good to be back!

We're looking at smaller tents for wekends away and stumbled across some 2-man pop up tents in Decathlon. Can't remember the make....Quedrec or something.

They pop up in 2 seconds and fold away in 15. We thought that 2 of those for the 4 of us and a day tent would be ideal.

Was wondering what your experiences are re pitch charges. Would we get charged for 3 tents or 1 pitch?

Whaddya think?

more than likely you would be charged for 3 unless you made some sort of tunnel system between each tent ( why not try windbreakers)

Suspect you will be charged for an additional pup tent (ie the second small tent) and a gazebo (day room). . Nuts, but that seems to be the way things are.

I raised the very issue when I wanted to take two (smallish) tents to a site.

Response varied as to charges.

Best to pick your site(s) and ring and ask them!

Only way to get an accurate position.

Thanks all.

Looks like I'll be ringing round before I buy the tents
