Family Base inflatable annex for Roof Space rooftop tents

A poled annex is always the same ritual: find the right pole, thread it through the sleeve, swear at the last segment. The Family Base has no poles — it has air chambers and a stand pump in the set, so 3 × 3 m of structure goes up in minutes.

Add 3 × 2 m of extra cover under the tensioned connector, four walls that come off one by one and a groundsheet in the box. It is freestanding, so you can leave camp standing and take the car out for the day.

Key benefits

• Pump it up — an air-chamber system instead of poles, nothing to thread or assemble
• 3 × 3 m of floor, plus 3 × 2 m of cover once the connector is tensioned
• Four walls off one by one — a closed room or a plain canopy, depending on the weather
• Freestanding — take the car, leave the camp standing
• Groundsheet and pump included, nothing to buy separately
• Pressure relief valve — on hot days the chambers vent excess pressure by themselves
• M or L connector matched to vehicle height, vans included

Who it is for

For a family that stays in one place for more than a night, and for anyone who needs living space rather than just a bedroom. At 3 × 3 m it takes a table, the gear and a dry corner for the kids on a wet day.

The second group is people who work from a base camp: pitch it, leave it standing and drive off. The Family Base does not need the tent to stand up.

Fitting and notes

Inflate it with the supplied pump, attach it to the tent through the connector and tension it with fifteen pegs. The connector is chosen by vehicle height: M up to 1.90 m, L above that.

Before you order: Roof Space 2 tents with serial numbers RS230001 to RS240112 need the version with an adapter. The number is inside the tent case, behind the side cover next to the gas struts — send it together with your vehicle height and we will put the right version together.

Why it is worth it

• Living space for the whole family, pumped up instead of poled
• Freestanding — the camp stays, the car goes
• Groundsheet, pump and 15 pegs already in the box

Send us your tent model and the height of the car with the tent fitted — we will match the M or L connector and complete the order.

Frequently asked questions

Which connector do I need, M or L?

Measure the height of the car with the tent fitted. Up to 1.90 m, the M connector; above 1.90 m, the L connector (up to 2.20 m).

Does it fit both the Roof Space 2 and the Roof Space 4?

Yes. The manufacturer builds versions for both — the annex is the same, the connector width differs. Tell us which tent you have.

Do I have to pack it up to use the car?

No. The Family Base stands on its own, without leaning on the tent.

What exactly is in the box?

The annex, an M or L connector, a groundsheet, a stand pump, a carry bag, a manual and 15 pegs.

Can the walls be opened in hot weather?

Yes, all four walls come off individually — from a closed room to a plain canopy.
