We are looking to replace our Aztec Sala tent which has given good service over the last 5/6 years. Now in our 50's and with a bit of spare cash, we are looking for something easy to erect, reliably waterproof, lightweight and can comfortably take two adults with gear and somewhere to sit when weather is poor.

Cost is not an issue (within reason!) so, any suggestions??

We just bought a Vango Vail 700 which wasn't even on our 'to look at list' of tents and we are over the moon with it. So my advice would be to invest a little bit of time looking at some displays, and seeing what suits your needs, because it won't neccesarily be the same as the advice you recieve on this site.

i think the coleman ceder creek is a cracking little tent if you can still get it at the bargain 130 quid in millets(it is a typo error in the magazine that they honour).......very roomy and realitively lightweight.
