Hi,
I've read various posts advising seeing tents for yourself at the showroom to make like for like comparisons. Could anyone advise a store in the Surrey/ Middlesex area where I could check out Vango/ Outwell / similar family tents?

Thanks

Try SK Camping at South Godstone - just south of the M25 on the A22.

Great display, and I could spend hours in their camping gadget shop!

Hi,

There's a big exhibition running at the moment at Horsham, well worth a visit, it's run by the same people that do the one in Wokingham in July. Details here

The exhibition in Horsham was great.  We went on Sunday and spent loads.  Theare are loads and loads of tents but they don't have any Outwells so you would have to go somewhere else for those.

The shop in Farnham is good,

we priced up our new khyam there, then saved nearly £200 by buying it from the show in Horsham ;) Actually we bought our other two khyams from them as well at the Wokingham show
