Hope you love it as much as I love mine. We went away for the first time last weekend. Even though the rain poured down and the winds howled we were cosy and safe. The tent was solid. No condensation either, a real blessing. It is spacious and so worth every penny. It has been drying in our conservatory as I can't put it up in the small garden. But this has worked well. Enjoy!

Angie, Will be selling the Indy on Ebay.....but so worth it.

Sue, Apparently it's no different from the sun valley 8 but it's polycotton. We have been using the sun valley 8 carpet in the indy so keeping that!!

Cant wait to go out in it, might have to do a weekend up at priddy if the weather stays nice!

Emma - hope this isn't too cheeky from a newbie, but we're looking to buy a second hand Indy, so if you'd consider selling it directly and posting/couriering to Nottingham, please let me know!

Thanks, Angela x

We did look at the wolf lake, but it seemed far too big for us, also with reports of it not fitting on C&CC sites, decided against it.

I also hope we are happy with this one, It's the first one we have bought brand new!
