Yes, the Montana 12 can be used in this way. The thing to remember is that tunnel tents designed to be used with bedrooms up one end only have windows around the three other sided, giving very good quality living space and outlook plus usually a good choice of doors.

With the Montana 12 you have the versatility of choosing to hang bedrooms at either or both ends, but because of that it only has windows on the two long sides. So although it potentially offers a greater quantity of living area than the Montana 6 you need to bear in mind the difference in the nature of that space. MT

Dear Merry Terrier,

I totally agree with you there. It tooks me weeks to decide between the 6 and the 12. In the end, the double hight blow up mattress bought in the sale at argos decided it for us!!! (Would only fit in '12' bedroom). But the light and space of the six is very attractive to me also. The laugh is, during our half term camping trip we decided we hated the double hight blow up matress from argos!!!! So in sum, could have got he Monty 6 after all! Perhaps if i'm really nice to OH he'll let me buy another?

Hi - I am a newbie - don't want to hijack this post and get a black mark on my first visit but this sounds like just the kind of thing we need.  Children have requested a camping holiday this year

When you say "easy to put" up - how long exactly are we talking about - I have some horrible childhood memories!

Hi netmum - welcome to the site.   You may be best posting your own thread with your requirements in respect of how many berths, budget etc.  You'll be sure to get more attention that way.
