A Cabanon Barbados and a Cabanon Eloise!

BB, have you seen that Eureka tent up? If its the one I think it is then all those lovely windows are mesh not plastic so total zip up in wet weather, which I thought was a bit disappointing when I unexpectedly came across some big Eurekas  last year. MT

Despite some teething problems we love our Sun Valley 8.  Unless we were to fork out for the Lake version I don't think there's a better tent for us.

Cabanon Andorra, but then all cabanons are great they last for years and years and years, I bought mine after asking for the same advice on here and I'm so glad I did. I love it.

not sure about the family tent but my own personal tent would have to be the force 10 vortex.has been tested and stood up to 75 mile an hour winds.would feel safe on any mountain in that.at the moment i'll carry on using my terra nova voyager which is a great tent but yet to test it in high winds.

I'm quite happy with our Cabanon Julie & Cabanon Elody. If we win the lottery, we'll just employ a chauffeur to drive us to the site & a butler to erect the tent & serve the wine on a silver tray

If the cost didnt matter i'd have a Terra Nova Cosmos.. That  would be my family tent..  WOW!   CLICK ME  for more info.. its a super duper tent!

 

Then for my other tent, it would have to be a quick erect tent, light and very strong and i'd choose the Terra Nova Quasar ETC

 Two great tents that would suit me fine. If i had the spare cash lol..  for more info CLICK ME

 

Oh i almost forgot the Terra Nova Hyperspace  Great tent too  for more info CLICK ME

 

Until i've got lots of spare cash i will stick to my Vango Equinox tents (600 + 350 tbs)
