Evening chaps,

Could anybody please tell me where is a good place to go in the Yorkshire area that will have Sunncamp & Cabannon frame tents up ?

I think i should actually see one of them in all there grandure instead of just on the internet but not many shops seem to have frame tents !!!

Hm, maybe thats a sign !!

Is there something I'm missing about frame tents ?

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers Ness

Hi, a lot of people have given up on frame tents due to the weight of poles and canvas and the fact that canvas is harder to dry out than polyester etc.

Bit further but if you come to near Newcastle 2 places have some of both pitched.  British Caravans at Newcastle and Tyne Valley Garden and Camping near Gateshead.  I've just bought a Sunncamp Vario 600+ and it's excellent. Not a frame but really big.

mitchells (Go Outdoors) in wakefield! They have got quite a few tents on display. That is probably your best bet as it is not far from you.
