Cotton/Canvas tents?

Recommended Posts

We've been camping for two years now.

 

I'm a regular poster on campsite.co.uk forums, and alot of people on there rave about the advantages of cotton/canvas over polyester tents.

 

Apparently you keep warmer when its cool, and cooler when its warm!

 

One thing I would like is not to wake up in the morning hot and sweaty.

 

I've sort of talked myself into asking Father Christmas for this http://www.tent-tents.com/overzichtpagina3.asp?cat=1&id=21&arid=1163

 

What do you think? Its a lot more money than I ever imagined I would ever spend on a tent.

 

Is it worth it?

Yes. Canvas tents, if properly cared for, can outlast any poly tent.

Thanks. I have tents coming out of my ears. I best abstain from another purchase lol.

 

A canvas tent will probably be the best purchase you've ever made.

did you get sorted for a Canvas tent ?

 

we got our Pyramid from Obelink and it was great, they do a cheaper model than Rosas that doesnt have ZIG

 

if the price is high but you like the style Relum Izmir on ebay would be pretty close and a quarter (at most) of the price

 

Another great choice is Lichfield Challenger in Canvas, again £50 would get a good one (once ebay tent sales quieten down after the spring frenzy)
