New to camping - taking DC aged 7 and 3 in halfterm and then again in summer.
I have bought a 5 man dome tent, thinking it gives a lot of room for weight (I'm on public transport so trying to balance weight/size/headroom). Didn't think about the pitching but now worried because heard that dome tents are hard to put up! Would I be better off with a 5 man tunnel tent instead (same weight (about 9kg) more room, but more money)?
The two contenders are the outwell cloud 5 (cheaper blacks colour, tacoma 500) and the vango omega 500xl.

I don't have anywhere to try it out before we go!
TIA for any advice
