Well I've tried several and looked round several tents now! :-(

To be honest find that the tunnels have much more useable space due to the straight sides!

And hoping will be easier to pitch as just bought one, as it has no cross over poles!

Hiya, just found this site. I have a Gelert 2-3 man tunnel, can't remember which one but looking to get the lokon vario 6 as this year I'm taking my niece and nephews away with me. Just wondered if I'll be able to put it up on my own, kids bit small. I have no problem with my little tunnel but wonder if the bigger one will be much more difficult. Thanks.

We started camping as a family for the first time last year.  2 adults and 2 kids (2 and 3)  After spendign a long time looking at different tents we settled on the Bear Lake 6 (Tunnel) as soon as we saw it we knew that it was the perfect tent for us as it still gives us a bit of family expanibility if we have another little ankle biter at some point.  110% if you can afford it go for polycotton its so quiet and warm.  Although Outwell are releasing a Wolf Lake 5 if you want something slightly smaller.

Downsides are that it can be a little heavy to put up and therefore really takes 2 people to erect.

Hope this helps
