I bought the Wynnster Orion 7. Its a fab tent, only had one weekend in it so far, just me and the three kids but all 5 of us (and dog!) are going away for the bank holiday in August, can't wait!

There are pictures in my gallery. couldn't put the awning up cause pitch was too small!

Loads of room in the living area, my sons even talking about bringing a couple of his mates sometimes and it wouldn't be a problem. Large bedrooms too.

took us a while to erect it, mainly cause it was just me and my son and we'd never put a tent up in our lives before. very easy to take down and fitted back into the bag after I'd rolled a few times on it!!

with my husbands help I think it will be easy.

Good luck with whichever you buy. I browsed these boards for several weeks before deciding. Everyone is so friendly and helpful!

Happy Camping

Kate

Is there a Costco warehouse near you?

 

They currently stock an Outbound 12 man tent.  No sig but the three large 4 man bedrooms are seperately sealed and the tent is basically huge but easy to erect.

Best bit is the price.  £89.99 plus vat.

 

You need to be a member or know one.  Also, if anything goes wrong with the tent like ever, they will give a full refund.

Hi

If you are interested in the Campus 2005 (2006 Kyam) they have the Yale £109.95, Campus Indiana 8 (2005) £179.95,  Indiana 6 £135.95, Santiago £87.95, even the Breckenridge + Delux are all reduce at www.Outdooraction.co.uk and look at the Campus 2004 / 2005 section - but for a family of five I would go with the Brenkenridge Delux - this tent will last you for years and as the kids get older there will always be plenty of space - I should know my OH is 6ft 3, two teenagers both 6fters and my 10 yr old and myself are normal!!!!! Anyway happy hunting, hope you find what you are looking for.

Hi siamese_cat,

We have the Wynnster Anglesey 5 man (almost exactly the same as the Orion, just a different colour and slightly different dimensions). It's a great tent, very practical and loads of space. I'm using it again next week and can't wait. You don't need to be tall to put it up, I'm 5ft and a half inch(!) and my OH is not too tall and we had no problems at all with the height.

we bought a Vango Tent with a sig and have been pleased with it as it was the right choice for us, it is warmer at night and does keep out ddlonglegs.

I searched for ages for the best price and bought it from www.outdoorgarage.com in the end. thought it may be worth a look at.

Happy hunting

Dave

Ps May go for the Aspen 700 Delux for our next tent
