has a large 4 man bedroom, then a second 2 man bedroom can be put up or left out for more living area. Sewn in ground sheet, with inner tent. 5 poles, but very good in all weathers. (this is our second Curlew - gets used most weekends at a motorsport race)

You will not get carbon poles on a big tent like that for £100 they will be fiberglass.
yeah, thought about that decathlon one, just not quite sure somehow 🙂
fibreglass, carbon....... what i meant was bendy rather than steel 🙂 didnt realise they were fibreglass.
cheers for the replies
Sadexpunk - get the pop up decathlon one. It is great. Great to the point where you didnt realise a simple idea such as that could be so great.
We've just used our Coleman Riverside for the first time at Mayhem, disregarding the break whilst it was peeing it down, I reckon it took about 25 minutes to get up, including untying the new guys and inserting the rooms, that has one more pole than the one you're looking at. It all packed up as one so it's just a case of firing the poles in next time, so it should be a lot quicker. Plenty of headroom, even at 6'3", I looked at the pop up tents as I like my Khyam Igloo, but the big Khyams were expensive and the other cheaper makes seemed short on headroom.
