Hi, we have an Outwell Idaho L and didn't need an extension at the time we bought it. However,... 2 children later it would be v useful!
As the Idaho range is now discontinued does anyone know of a different model of extension that is compatible?
Many thanks.

Hi shepcott,

I posted this on another members thread who was looking for an extension for an earlier Monty but it may work for you as well.

This may be an option as it work's well for us. We wanted an enclosed extension on our BL6 for the kitchen odds and ends and whilst the side or larger front canopy type extension are big enough we didn't like them being open. So, having looked at sizes etc we grabbed an Outwell Country Road drive away awning that is intended to be used with a camper van. However with it pitched next to the BL the tunnel connection section of the awning, normally used to connect to the camper van, fits perfectly against the side of the BL and I have simply extended the top 2 fixing straps and added 2 C clips so it now connects to the 2 upright poles either side of the side door of the tent.

Now we have an enclosed kitchen area with its own door out plus room to eat in there if its raining plus it can be closed off from the main tent.
