Hi all!

Went camping for the first time this weekend for a couple of nights as a trial. It went well!

We bought a Gelert Quebec 8+4 as a first tent as there is myself the wife and our four kids!
Due to this being a discontinued tent we are trying to find a porch for it so we can extend the living area a bit as this would enable us to go for abit longer next time I feel especially on a rainy day.

Does anyone have any idea which one I can get to fit? We would like one that can be closed up.

I've seen people mention the Gelert Horizon porches but there are a few different types so I'm unsure on what I need to look for.

Really really hope someone can help!

Thank you

Andy

Hi I used to have that tent and it was great !
We used a 'Khyam sun porch ' with it and it worked a treat . We used the porch for the kitchen with kitchen /cooker one side then table for bits n bobs on the other it also adds protection I guess the gelert or higear porches are similar
