and if so, what make and model is it?
We have 2 tents. First is a Wynnster Mallard 5. I love it. pic here It's a tunnel tent with 2 bedrooms at one end. It's easy to pitch, lightweight, spacious, and has lasted us through nearly 10 years of camping. However, with our girls (15 and nearly 12) having to share a fairly tight bedroom, they moan like mad whenever we take it.
Because of this, a few years back we bought this 9 person dome tent. It's lovely when it's up and the girls adore it. However... It's huge and I defy any less than 4 tall strong people to actually get it pitched. I have to walk away and leave it to DH to rope in some unsuspecting victims because I get so stressed. Plus, we've sometimes ended up paying double pitch fees. Plus, it takes up so much space in the car that we have to travel virtually naked, and it weighs a whopping 35+ kg.
Ideally I need something more like our smaller tent, but with 3 bedrooms so the girls don't kill each other during the holiday. I much prefer the tunnel design as the dome is such a pain to pitch.
Anyone got anything they can recommend?
