Just ordered a a Gelert Quebec 8 + 4 which would seem to meet your requirements? £153.50 including postage and a free Gelart windbreak thingie

I did a search on here and out of well over 30 posts, not one had anything bad to say about it.

I'm 6ft 6 and find that the bedrooms are fine. They are wide enough when lying down to ensure your head and feet are not touching the walls. OK you have to bend slightly in the bedrooms, but the centre dome has loads of headroom.

Both the Georgia L and the Georgia XL have my vote. We also serious considered a Vango Diablo 600, as all 3 tents have the extra support in the bedrooms to provide better headroom.

Turns out we have asked for the vermont XL... I just cant pass up the design no matter what my previous experinace with the nebraska was like.. I looked long and hard at the aztec falcon 12 and the royal pescara 8... my main prob with both was no bathtub groundsheet for the porch also other little niggles where id prefer the nebraska over those others... on the other hand the vermont is a differnt tent and design and it seems it has far far less complaints about leaking compared to the nebraska.

I spoke to world of camping and they informed me they have had only 1 return of a vermont XL and they have sold loads, most popular tent this year apparently, have to phone back tommorow to see how much extra im gonna have to pay with the carpet included.

Once again World of camping are showing there excellence in customer service

Its not the size of the tent...its how you pitch it..
