Head uphill, always, otherwise you'll have a terrible nights sleep. Something to bear in mind while pitching.

As to feet or head to doorway, I prefer head to doorway if possible. I don't like the inner sloping down near my face much and that bit is always draughtier in a non-SIG tent. Also, unless you're prepared to allow drinks in the bedroom pods (eek!) how can your Hubby bring you a cup of tea in bed? At least if you've got your head at the door you can unzip it a bit and sit your cuppa out on the groundsheet in the living area.

Oh, and if it's hot, you can roll the doors wide open and have your head at the cooler end of the pod.

Feet to the door...... then when the mad crazy eyed axe man my wife keeps telling me is outside the tent attacks you lose your feet first and can atleast bite him to death! sweet dreams....

Wife used to make me sleep on whichever side of the bed was nearer the door whenever we stayed in hotel in case the mad axe murderer came.

Think she thought the wet thwack of the axe seperating my head would wake her up and she could climb out the window while he admired his handy work.
