We have got a biscaya 500 and love it. It takes an hour to fully put up but its simple.

Hello Jones15, do you have any problems lining up the poles with the zipped sleeves? It looks like you have to be very precise and I was just wondering if it is a bit of a struggle, with pitching from inside the tent and with the zips being just one-way?

Hi ,yes you have to be precise and push fairly hard with one person holding the pole and the other zipping it up, but dont let it put you off buying the tent because once up ,its great and because you zip the canvas onto the groundsheet it has no draughts or any way for rain to get in.It does however get a bit hot on a warm day to be pitching from the inside.Hope this helps.

Hi we have a biscaya 500 bought last year with suncanopy and love it. Unfortunately need to sell due to ill health and moved onto a caravan this year. Anyone interested would consider sensible offers.

I've a 320 and can erect it in 15 minutes single handed.

These tents are really built to last and withstand the weather. Loads of ventilation  and windows if you want to use them.

Certainly with the 320 the sun canopy is a worthy accessory, especially in wet weather!!!
