hi ,looking to change tents currently own a coleman wyoming 6 non sig..

just wondering if anyone could recomend a good 6 berth tent with sig for £200 or under.....we want a sig cos last year toward the end of summer our non sig tent was quite cold,and having a 1 year old toddling about it should just be a bit warmer.

cheers john

What about Vango Oregon 600.  The 2007 model has a sig, We have the 800 and its a great tent,

Hi!

That Coleman Galileo XL 5 berth that Phil and Ruth have hi-lighted looks really good and a good price - does it definately have a SIG?

This might be just what we are looking for - sorry to crash your page Jetty, but newbie to camping, need all the help I can get!

Thanks Donna x

Hi

How about this?

Yes it has a full SIG.

"The Coleman Weathermaster tent has been reprised with the introduction of the Galileo L (excellent for star gazing) and Galileo XL. The Galileo's are described as heavy-duty, extra large, cabin style family tents with double sized living areas. They feature a strong external steel pole system (for flysheet first pitching) and a fully sewn-in bathtub style groundsheet for clean, dry bug free camping. The Galileo XL features three 2-berth bedroom inners which are fully removable to create extra living space and there are an additional set of loop attachments inside the tent in case you want to add an extra universal inner (sold separately) if you are in need of extra sleeping space. The living space features no less that five door openings some of which feature full length mesh doors for ventilation and a behind the bedrooms there is a neat, permanent storage compartment. The materials that go into the Galileo's are a 3000mm HH PU coated Ripstop Polyester flysheet with taped seams and PVC windows. The inner tent is breathable polyester with no see-um-mesh. Welded seam PE groundsheets to both the bedrooms and living area. Included with the tent are a colour-coordinated windscreen and a wheeled carry bag."

Hi!

Thanks Phil & Ruth, ideal - just shown hubby - its definately a front runner at the mo.  We have 2 girls, 10 and 6 so need lots of space.

Much appreciate all your help!

Hi,

The Coleman Galileo XL 6 berth is a lovely big tent.  I saw it on display at our local camp shop and if I 'd had the money I would have bought it, although it would have been too big for us and our daughter, probably the 4 berth would have been big enough.  Some say its a bit dark because of the colour but I didn't find it so.  It seemed square shaped and the bedrooms are big too.  its got the biggest living area I've seen in a tent. Having read the description above I don't need to add anymoe,

No problem Donna, world of camping are a good company to deal with, I have bought from them before andnever had a problem.

Whatever you decide happy camping!!! and lets hope for a good summer.

Hi John (Jetty)

Have a look at the Wynnster Eagle 6, Wynnster Carina 8, Outwell Nevada m, Outdoor revolution Starcamper 8.

All of these tents have a sewn in groundsheet and some have nice porch areas also.

To get a good deal you could try looking for a 2007 model, i see your in north yorkshire, im not sure how many camping shops you have up that way but most retailers will have a few 07 tents to clear.

That is a good price! The 2008 model is £389.95 (here), and doesn't include the additional universal inner.

I've always thought the 2007 model was a bit dark, but at that price it might be worth putting up with the colour!

Best of luck, whatever you decide.
