Sorry BULLY1 clearly didn't read your post properly.  Yes it looks to be a good one, just £300 quite a lot of money in general sure its still cheap for a tent.  Anyone any ideas if go outdoors do many sales, missed this saturdays offer of 20% off....

Go outdoors have the Zenobia 6 currently on offer for £199 which is a good price ,they always have deals on
I would personally go for an 8 man tean to give you more space,if the weather is rubbish

Thanks everyone for your advice, 8 man tent it is.  May wait until autumn and possible deals come on and build up my camping gear slowly until next Summer....

Hey Kev - welcome to the site.

Here, this one's well within your budget: Gelert Evora 8

Plenty of reviews kicking around online. Good luck with whatever you end up with though.
