Tent arrived this week and definitely it needs a footprint. Some EU campsites are notoriously lumpy, stony or full of tree debris.
Can't find a suitable one online so need to get one made.
Has anyone made a sample and has dimensions available; including covering the vestibule?

I just went to Amazon and ordered a HD tarp, 3m x 2m, to go underneath my Berghaus. A bit heavier but it worked really well in France this summer
 
I use an offcut of the waterproof roofing membrane. Cheap as chips (well, free/price of a pint if you're lucky with a local builder)
 
Whatever you get as a footprint it’s also well worth packing a small stiff bristled hand brush.
Taking a minute to sweep away any debris from where you want to pitch can save an unseen small stick or sharp stone puncturing through the floor of your tent and letting water in.
You don’t even need to pack it in a pannier / top box, just clip / strap it on top of your luggage so it’s quick to get at before you start setting up. :thumb2
