HikeWare - cheapest supplier in the UK for this tent...

I purchased this tent from HikeWare after seeing a review by Log Hoppers - The official UK Nomads.

See here:

After doing a Google search I found HikeWare to be the cheapest supplier in the UK, so I purchased my first tent (in Khaki) with a pair of Night Cat Trekking Poles (Bundle deal). I tested out the tent over a weekend trip to the Lakes and loved it so much I purchased a 2nd one for a friend. I went for the 2-Person tent because I like the extra space it provides.

Recently, I purchased a 3rd tent, as a spare, this time with HikeWare Trekking Poles (another Bundle deal).

HikeWare has excellent products and Elliot is a TOP GUY!

Do not hesitate, grab yourselves some bargains...

Thanks Elliot... I'll be Back!
