Hi, Thinking about buying a polytunnel, where we are most of the windy weather comes from the west, should i site the tunnel with gable end facing west or should i site it length wise facing west, my thinking is if i go for length wise facing west it will then allow the wind to flow over a curved surface, until we get more sheltered with trees, but if i face it gable end westerdly it will have full sun all day down the length of it, hope that all makes sense.

Ours is gable end on to the worst of the wind. It has survived intact for 12 years and we have had two near hurricaines in that time.
