Yeah redz is right... it seems outwell is selling very very well at the minute.... we were lucky to have the tent we wanted for mid june and I know the montana 12 is just as popular....

Did Outwell seriously underestimate how popular they would be this year or is this common thing to happen....

Welcome to the forum Diybill !   Lots of good stuff on here. 

The Monty 12 is a great tent - we are a family of 5 and find the tent gives us loads of living and bedroom space - with full standing headheight throughout.   For the space available in the tent, the rectangular footprint is also more compact than some of the dome style tents.   Outwell is also recognised as being one of the best for quality and customer service.

So - are Monty 12's OK ?   I can certainly recommend them !    Now you just need to get hold of one ......  I was lucky enough to buy a hardly used 2005 one from Steve (Langleys) - I'm now waiting for him to get bored with his Nebraska .....

As far as heating tents go - no idea since we don't bother - just need warm enough sleeping bags etc.

Cheers, Dave

    Thanks for all replies. Cheers Bill

Let us know if you manage to get one!

good luck Bill

We have just bought a caravan as youngest son is disabled and camping was too much for him and three of our friends have been fighting (well out bidding) for our monty 12....as one friend said they are like" rocking horse muck"... good luck with your search..

Hi,

can't help on tent but can tell you we have a gas parabolic heater which takes large(only downside) gas bottle. Obviously can't leave it running overnight but toasty on cold evenings and warms things up before pyjama time.

Happy camping.

Hi,

We use an electric fan heater purchased for £6 from B&Q. Does a brilliant job when needed which in our Monty 6 isn't very often.
