In same position as you. Have just bought Vango Yukon 400 (£149) plus the Vango large canopy (£39 + £6 p+p) to create a decent outdoor area at the front for cooking/chilling out. Also got the footprint groundsheet (£20). Tunnel tents like these are easier to put up as you do the work at ground level and so minimise the risk of it turning into a giant kite if there is strong wind. If you were more pessimistic about the weather you could lose the canopy and get the Yukon 600 instead.

What about a Sunncamp evolution ? They range from 3 to 6 person and apparently are very easy to pitch,

Great looking tents too !
