I'm interested to know if there are any decent, fairly large 'pitch-as-one' tents available. We'd like to be able to do away with a separate fly sheet to make life easier when pitching/taking down in bad weather, but like the idea of a SIG for keeping out the drafts! We'd probably like an 8-9-berth tent with three bedrooms. Does anyone have any recommendations...? Thanks!

Hi

We've got the Sunvalley 8 (Outwell tent) which has no seperate fly-sheet.  It has three seperate bedrooms. Works well for us (SIG in living area then bucket groundsheet it the large porch). Takes about 20mins to put up plus maybe a bit longer to fully-peg out (DH does the first bit by himself but leaves some of pegging out for me later!)

Outwell's Montana range are all-in-one too I believe

As Onceinabluemoon says, the Outwell Montana range is a pitch-as-one tent design - AND it's got the SIG you want too !!

They do 4, 6 and 12 berth variants, but no 8 or 9 in the Monty I'm afraid !

From a previous thread - these are believed to be able to be pitched as one:

  • Coleman Magellan
  • Outdoor Revolution VRX Scenic 5.0i
  • Outwell Nebraska, SunValley, Montana & Lakes*
  • Sunncamp Vario, Haven, Evolution & Ventura
  • Vango Aurora

I second that. We had to exchange two faulty tenst before we got our perfect one, nut it was well worth the effort. Excellent tent and so easy to put up. We can get it up now in less than 50 minutes and that`s with pinning groundheets down first to pitch it on.(Keppes the SIG clean and makes for easier packing away)
