Hi,

I'm currently trying to convince my wife that we need an upgrade to our draughty Gelert Stratus 4 DLX. I've done my research and narrowed it down the the Montana 6p or a 5m bell tent.

We saw the monty last night and both really liked it but we work 6 days a week and don't really have the time to drive from Bristol to London or Norfolk to the Soul Pad/Bell tent showrooms.

Does anyone know of any showrooms or bell tent meets in the Bristol area where we could have a look at one?

On one of the other posts someone did mention a meet in Swindon this weekend.

The other option might be a quick call to the likes of Soulpad etc and see if they know of any Glamping companies in the west country who might have one set up you could sneak a peak at.

Its definitely worth it, as soon as my wife saw one set up she was happy.

You could ring your local Cotswold Outdoors store. here When we were in Bournemouth a few weeks ago they had a 5 metre one on display in that store. So hopefully your store might as well. Geoff
