Hi does anyone have this tent, would you recommend it for a family of 4? Can you fit an inflatable double mattress in the bedroom sections? Many thanks!

We bought one a couple of weeks ago and have had it up in the back garden. It's very big.

As to whether we can fit in the double airbeds, we're about to find out next week!

I think you can get airbeds from the same shop, so they presumably fit.

If you haven't bought yours yet, then you can grill the staff intensely, I guess.

As to the tent, on first looks, we like it. Getting it down requires that you look at the Youtube clip many, many times and also needs two people. It's quite quick once you get the right manouevre, but that can take some time to arrive.

Friends of ours have this tent. They used it for 2 nights at a weekend. I think the bedrooms must fit a double airbed as they had two parents in one room and the two children in the other.

I thought it looked like a great tent. It really did take about 2 minutes to put up and five to take down.

The guy at decathalon told me you can fit a double in each sleeping pod.

We have one and have used it twice. It does hold a double inflated mattress in each of the bedroom sections. Dh and I have 2 dc and we have been happy with it.
We've just come back from Cornwall after 5 days camping.

Ours takes two fat airics in one bedroom pod (don't know about a double airbed)and a travel cot in the other. I can put it up in 5 mins and take it down myself, its easy once you have watched the video a couple of times. The first time I put it up on my own in the garden with DH watching me from a deck chair to see if I could do it - he was very impressed! Decathlon staff are very helpful and will steer you in the right direction for beds.

Thanks all! Tried out tent yesterday and it's brilliant, fits double mattresses and really easy to put up and down, kids love it!
