[Closed] Tent recco please

You won't go wrong with a Vango Beta 350 - get the one with the porch (xl) for more space.
We bought some after a few tents got trashed in a storm on Mull for the outdoor centre - and they waaay outlasted the £60odd each we paid.

The only real negative was glass fibre poles and cheap, noisy groundsheet.

Cheers, was thinking something more like a tempest or a banshee but like the look of that Beta!! - reckon you could park a bike in that porch space?

Banshee or Zephyros are both good tents if you want something smaller and lighter. Banshee probably has a bit more space in it but a bit heavier.

The Vango Alpha 300 has plenty of living space for £70, or the Vango Soul 300 is compact but only £55.

Loads of options!

+1 for the Beta 350.

I've had (and abused) one for 6 or 7 years now and it's been excellent.

Roomy for 2, comfortable for 3 as the porch area is really handy for storage.

I'm 6'2" and can sit upright inside without my head coming close to the skin of the tent.

My wife bough me [url= http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3167098.htm ]this one at Argos[/url] for Bonty24/12 last weekend.

I didn't have a too high expectations, but after testing it in some rather hard conditions (who was there knows what I'm talking about...) I must say it is very good! I don't camp a lot, but setting this tent up made me look like some professional tent erector! 😆 About 5 minutes to set it up! Took a bit longer to take it down though, but it was because it was in heavy rain... I assume in decent conditions it takes 5 minutes too.

And it is waterproof - despite the awful rain there was no leak, it kept me comfortable dry and warm during my 2 hours sleeping times 😉

Cheap, light and good.

thanks the replies, i ordered the Beta 350 from Decathlon (together with mattress and foot pump for £100) mainly because really like the bike garage at the front!
