suggestions please .........

looking to buy a 4-6 man tent , with min 2 bedrooms and fully integrated groundsheet in bedrooms and living space ! and easier to put up the better...

I've seen a Royal Garonne 6 for sale (at half price) for £149 inc delivery . Are these any good as looking through message boards there's not much mention of 'royal ' tents ?

thanks in anticipation ....

 hiya! and welcome to ukcs

some friends of mine have just brought the sunncamp vario 6+ and put it up in 20mins they said. i think this tent looks fab, but dont know much about it technically.

this is the sunncamp vario family 900

SUNNCAMP FAMILY VARIO 900 Ref: sunncamp fam var 900
ONLY 2 LEFT FOR THIS SEASON !!! BE QUICK !!!

New model for '06. Fantastic family tunnel tent. Long tunnel tent with end bedroom plus two extra sleeping pods to each rear side. Unique for this season but sure to catch on next season with other manufacturers. Sewn in groundsheet ! !. .Length 6.20cm width at front 3.50cm and width at rear 7.50cm. End bedroom sleeps 2 + 3, and rear pods 2 per pod.

i purchased a royal montpeiller 9. and i wouldn't buy any other make now. we are looking for a smaller royal that can be used for weekends.

the material seems (feels) slighly thicker/ better quality than sunncamps and vangos that i have come across- coleman/ gelert/ blacks/ escape and millets - used all makes through scouting, guiding and DofE. but it is down to your own preference.

this site was a big help when i bought the royal. I now have to look for the deals for two friends that now would like the same tent.
