On 12 and 13 September De Waard has a show in Garderen on an campside. They show all their tents in the collection 2010. AND: you can buy a new De Waard with a discount.

It is a bit of a drive for you from the UK, but you wouldn't be the first to make the journey...

If you are interested in coming: you can come to the De Waard Forum (www.dewaardforum.nl) for some tips/advice etc.
But if you know you want to buy a specific tent, please contact De Waard (info at dewaardtenten.nl) so you can make a reservation. Just to make sure you don't travel all the way for nothing. It is best to buy a tent which is in stock. De Waard can inform you best what is available.

Hi Rolph.

            Thanks for that reminder, the De Waard tents realy are somthing, and I was considering going to the show last year, untill I found a Cabanon Cotton Biscaya at a very special price, my tent of choice now, funds allowing would be a Karsten, although I would still like a De Waard, for shorter camps than what I use the Cabanon for, I am thinking of somthing big enough for just the two of us, with a smallish living area, and full SiG, any ideas?. still a good excuse to visit holland though for a look.

They all have a sig Andy

For 2 people and a smallish living area... Stormvogel, Papeguuiduiker or Roerdomp

Think we may be popping along to Garderen. It isnt far so it would be rude not to right?

Hi Angie.

             I will look at those as I printed the brochure of some time back, of course I would never buy a tent without having seen it pitched first, but at least it will give me an idea, prior to making the trip, if I ever get round to it. and your correct it would be rude of you, not to visit, just don't take the credit cards with you!.

Hi all,

Just joined because of my desire to go tent camping again.
So far caravan holidays with Missus NoTent.
Fine but on some nice long weekend…
And them kids start to show interest, too…
But I would need a 1 adult + 2 kids replacement for my backpacking mini 2-man.
So the (dutch) pyramid / cotton tents where always attractive to me.
And now the windy summer 2009 I observed a dutch couple playing cards, having tea, relaxing in their Vrijbuiter Japio while some polyester neighbours were blown away.
Impressive!

So I look for a pyramid cotton tent for 1 adult and 2 kids.

So far my favourites are:
- Holtkamper Utopia XS
     Excellent, too big and in quality and price an overkill
- Esvo Beukennoot
     Fine but too big
- De Waard Papegaaiduiker
     Nice but a little too small

So can somebody hint?
I would love to have:
- Inner tent of app. 200x200 cm
- Few poles
- Only patial standing height (180cm) to reduce windage
- Only small (100 - 150 cm) living area
- Fixed (or zipped) groundsheet for whole tent

By the way:
Isn´t there a thread on a “dutch pyramid tent admirers clubs” somewhere round here?

Thanks,
CAMPdiplING
