The only thing I would consider is the creepy crawlies. You bedroom pod will eliminate any potential problem. Without it when your tent is open I reckon you are bound to get some midges and the like inside.

We did similar this week in Wales. We have an Orchy 600 and my girls have decided they are too grown up to share anymore, and the eldest like to escape her sister!! So we split the bedroom pod for them and OH and I slept in the living area.

It worked well for us, we have a sun canopy so that essentially make the living area a bit redundant anyway. It does get brighter in the living area if the sun comes up though

Didn`t work well enough to stop me looking at buying a bigger tent for next summer....or maybe thats my excuse!!!

Every few months LOL!!!! its every trip to the camping shop for me.

Our De Waard doesnt have an inner (just zip outable dividing curtains) and we were a little worried about being cold but werent :)

Imho, as long as you insulate under airbeds and have decent sleeping bags etc then there should be no problem without inners.

We do a quick bug search with the zapper before going to sleep in case there are any mozzies loitering with intent to bite .
