Fitting

Delivery and returns

Collect free from Cardiff by appointment, or we arrange UK delivery, charged separately; we confirm the price before you pay the balance. Boxed, the Mini is 155 × 125 × 20 cm and weighs 58 kg, so two people are needed to lift it. You can cancel any time before delivery, and within 14 days after it. If you send an unused tent back, the return cost is yours: drop it off in Cardiff for free, or we arrange a courier (up to £120 from mainland UK). See returns and cancellation.
