I must say, went into Field & Trek, which was once Towsure. And got a good deal on a caravan awning, and the staff there were so helpful, amazing service from them all. I was looking to get a standard pole porch awning, but the air ones they have on display were brilliant, deciding to go for one of them!
I also signed up to there email offer alerts, and got some extra discounts!
Field and Trek is part of the bigger Sports Direct group. They also own almost all the brands that they sell.
Apart from the obvious big brand names like Terra Nova, Outwell, Vango etc.

It's quite a nice store. Went there a couple of weekends ago and was pleasantly surprised to see how well presented the store looks since it was taken over. All the staff seemed happy and the ones I asked for assistance from were fantastic. Had a good browse and eyed up a few items that I didn't need but just have to find an excuse to buy them now, lol! They still have the burger van there, so I enjoyed a nice bacon roll too.
I miss the pre-internet days when the arrival of the annual Field & Trek was an eagerly awaited event. They sold high quality gear & their own brand was excellent too - especially down sleeping bags, In them days you wouldn't see an awning of any description in their catalogue.

Yes indeed they were an excellent company to deal with until they sold out to retail guru and all round rogue Mike Ashley
