Hi , I am buying my first tent, I think i am looking for a vis a vis style tent with bedrooms facing each other ,8 birth, actually for 5, but 3 are very tall and we need space!

I want to be able to erect this tent quickly. I think I want sewn in groundsheet, one person is scared of spiders!

It must pack away as small as possible, i've only got a small nissan micra car and I'm going to be buying a roof box,

 I am so overwhelmed with choice I can't make a decision, I want a good quality one but prices vary so much brand to brand for similar styles,

Where is a good place to buy? Winfields, lancashire isn't too far from me, anyone bought a tent there? Or should I buy online?

Sorry for all the questions I just want to make sure I make the right choice.Please help.

Welcome Lancashirelass

Try and visit a showroom or display so you can see as many as you can erected - you get a better feel for size etc;

Don't buy from the first place you see unless it is something you realy want and is a steal on price.

I like to view and then shop around and then make the buy at the cheapest price

I have never bought a tent without seeing one erected first.

Any other questions dont be afraid to ask - thats what we are here for!

thanks for the info , looks a good tent and the hydrostatic head on the groundsheet is great for the money

I'll go looking this weekend
