I have a Diablo 600 for the longer family trips, but I require a quick & easy put up 1night tent for 4 of us, reasonably priced (upto £100ish).
My requirement is.... I want it to be able to fit 2 double airbeds side by side, with a bit of a porch area for cooking. I have been looking at a couple of tents.. Lichfield cheyenne5 / Vango V500.... comments on these tents (will they actually fit 2doubles in) and any suggestions please.

we have bought the wynnster mallard 6 as our weekender and its great. Has no porch but has a canopy and tonnes of living space. You easily get 2 double airbeds in but in two seperate bedroom pods see here Wynnster Tents :- Wynnster Mallard 6 tent - Buy Wynnster Tents :- Wynnster Mal

We have the wynnster hawk 8 for weekends ,  although we usually end up taking the monty. The hawk has two bedroom areas separated by the living area and the best bit  it only takes 20 mins to put up.

I was also considering a second tent for the same reasons and my personal favourite is the sunncamp evoloution 600.

A bit pricey at about £160 so i am waiting till the end of season sales

We use the Coleman Trailblazer 5 for exactly the reasons you are looking for something extra.  You can pick them up for about £60.  Nice size porch area.  I can put it up on my own in about 15 mins - takes longer with 'help' from the family!!
