sounds better than our outwell hartford, we sleep in the pods and the ceiling is virtually on top of us! we cant decide on whether to but another dome tent, or try a tunnel version like the vermont xl, which has much bigger bedrooms...

What about the Outwell Georgia's... we have the XL and it is a fab tent. The bedrooms are larger than the Harfords (not sure about the 2008 Harfords without looking!) The Georgia XL has 3 bedrooms, huge living area, porch etc etc. This tent stood like a rock in foul weather last year, whilst many others were flapping around.

Have a look, it's worth a consider!
