UV tents/shelters for beach and garden

6 replies

TabithaTwitchet · 04/06/2009 13:06

I've decided to get one of these for our holiday, DD will be 18 months.

I'm looking at the ELC UV tent, but it doesn't say whether you can use it on the beach...

Otherwise I'll get an Argos one (I'm not keen on buying online, prefer to go to a highstreet shop)

Does anyone have any opinions, good or bad, on the Early Learning C one or any of the Argos ones? Or recommendations for anything better?

I just want somewhere where DD can perhaps sit and eat her lunch/ have a quick nap, have her nappy changed while on the beach.
It has to be able to fold down small enough to not need a car to transport it

We have this one. They do a family version in it too, which would be better all round and for the future.

I see Mothercare have the family one for £34.99. I got the infant one from Tesco for £8 in a sale 2 years ago, lol. Want that kinda bargain for the family one!

i have the family version - (or one simular) it is huge. 6 adults fitted in it when it decided to rain on a hot sunny day at the beach! Ours had a bottom to it so wouldnt be sitting on sand.

be warned they get very warm inside
