"Great tent! Highly recommended!…"
22-Apr-2012
Loads of space in bedrooms for four people but would be more of a squash for six. Spacious living area with three doors (one with porch) so can get lots of air in and not have to walk muddy/wet shoes everywhere. Downside is very small canopy at front so limited protection when rainy or very sunny, although you can buy an extra canopy and tent extension.

05-Apr-2011
This is a fantastic tent. The first time we used it we were stuck in torrential rain. The tent was dry whereas our friends (who had another well known brand) had to shelter in ours as theirs had rivulets of water running on the inside.
There is lots of space for a family. I think it's most comfortable for four people. I wanted the bedrooms to be side by side so I could keep an eye on the children. We also purchased the porch addition which is great for cooking and eating under (if the weather doesn't hold).
I would thoroughly recommend this tent. The only downside (if you can call it a downside) is that it is huge. Lots of other families seem to manage in much smaller tents. But I would rather have the space!Read moreLess1 person found this review helpful.

01-Jun-2010
We bought this tent with our daughter in mind. It has an intigrated groundsheet which means no drafts and no-where for litte people to escape out of. We always keep the room divider unzipped and have used it, along with our blow up mattress with a travel cot and a small blow up bed for our daughter.
We spent two weeks hiding out from the rain last year in Devon, it managed 10 days of solid rain before the tent started leaking a little bit, but it was because the wind was that strong that it kept flicking water into the tent. The bedrooms didn't get wet at all during this time, just a little bit in the living area.
The interior has pockets that are very handy for storage. We love using this tent, it is easy to put it up, my husband managed it almost all on his own when I was heaviy pregnant. We normally go camping with our daughter and two dogs and there is plenty of room. Would definitely recommend this tent to anyone.Read moreLess8 people found this review helpful.

08-May-2010
This is a brilliant tent. I bought it when on maternity leave with my first child. Assuming I'd be penniless for many years and camping was a cheap way to holiday!
I now have 2 children and this tent is still fantastic. It's so spacious and takes no time at all to set up in my opinion. With the multiple windows to open for a breeze and two doors it stays cool in the Summer.
You can unzip the divider between both bedrooms (so to speak) and have one big separate bedroom if you wished as well.
We also bought the lights you can clip up from a well known outdoor store, so at night time it feels very homely with the lights, camping table and chairs whilst the little ones sleep after a long day and fresh air.Read moreLessMumsnetter teaandcakeplease

10-Aug-2009
Brilliant tent. Just spent two weeks with two little ones and hubby in France and it was great. Great living space, room for camp wardrobe, cooking gear, picnic table and other paraphenalia and still didn't feel cramped. Porch was great for us in wet weather although we used the large front door most of the rest of the time. Love it and will be using pleant more in future years.

08-Jul-2009
This is a great family tent size-wise and also because it has a great 'inner tent' or whatever the lingo is. It isn't v easy to put on with one adult so I would only recommend it if there are 2 adults or more. There is a good video of a guy putting it up on youtube which is worth watching. It is ideal if you are going for a few days but if you're going to snatch a night here and there I would go for a cheaper, lighter option. Happy camping.

22-Jan-2009
What a lovely tent. Huge living area (Big enough to play hide and seek in with a bored toddler on a wet and windy day) 2 roomy bedrooms that can be opened up to make 1 large one. Storage pockets, clever window shades and integral insect nets. Very sturdy tent...copes brilliantly in high winds. Fab quality thoughout. We love it.

19-Jun-2008
My sister has this tent! Very envious. It is fast to put up and can be done singlehanded if necessary. Well made, good strong stitching round seams and top quality tent lines. This is a big tent but the inside benefits make it worth it. Decent head height combined with good sleeping space make this a good buy. Not the cheapest on the market but price reflects its quality and I am betting it's longevity.

14-Feb-2008
Fabulous, spacious family tent. It has two huge bedrooms which sleep 3 each, but you can roll the divide up and all sleep in one. The living area is big enough for a table and chairs, and you can even get a carpet! It is easy to put up with two people and even quicker to take down. The windows are big, so the tent feels light & airy. Definitely get the front canopy, as it adds space to cook & sit under if raining.
