Vango Maritsa 500

We bought one of these using a price match and ended up with a real bargain. It has a great design consisting of a 2-man bedroom and a larger 3-man bedroom, which you can convert into a 2-man and a 1-man room. We tend to have use the 1-man section for storing clothes, etc.

The main living area has plenty of space for a family and windows. There's lots of hanging storage, which is handy for kids colouring stuff & torches.

The front section of the tent is like having an awning but with a SIG. It provides a good space to take off wet footwear/clothes without getting the main living area dirty. This was probably the main selling point for us.

It's fairly heavy due to the steel poles and we struggled to get it up the first time we tried. After a little advice (i.e. put all the top sections in and only put the other bits in as you're ready to lift that section) we've found it a breeze.
