I want a tent and I want it DARK!

Any recommendations? Looking to buy a family tent (2 under 4s and DP and me). We'll be using it mostly in Scotland where summer evenings are soooo light and mornings so very very early, and we haven't taken the LOs yetm so wondered if anyone has any recommendations for a dark tent?

TIA

We bought some blackout tents from backpackingshop. They worked a treat, nice and dark all day and the children didn't wake up at 5.30 as they did in our old tent. They get warm in the day, but then we were not in them!

We have a Kampa tent with the Sleeptite system. Havent' actually used it yet but when we were looking round they were noticeably darker inside the bedroom area, but not hotter.
