I'd really appreciate your advice on the Cabanon Biscaya 370.

I'm relatively new to camping and last year bought the Outwell Montana 6 with the front extension. I love the tent and the space (although there's only the two of us), and when we take our 2 week break, it's ideal.

However, when we go away for 1 or 2 nights, putting the tent up, pegging out,  unpacking the car etc. can take 1 hour  plus.

I haven't seen the Biscaya in the flesh, but really like the spec and appearance and am tempted to sell the Montana to fund the purchase.

Have any Biscaya owners got internal pics, general comments about the dimensions or advice that could help me make up my mind

Cheers!

The biscaya 370 is quick to pitch, we can do it in 20 minutes, by the time we have set up the cooker, blown up the airbeds etc, etc it can take up to an hour.   like you there are just two of us and we find we have plenty of room, We have spent sseveral evenings  with 6 adults and two children sat in the living area (and a small table) when the weather has been poor or there has been wine to be drunk

I think you need to see the biscaya in the flesh before you decide, I'm sorry I don't have any pictures.  We are very pleased with ours and would thoroughly recommend it, A useful addition is the sun canopy as this means you can also sit outside in relative comfort even if it is pouring down with rain.

good luck with what ever you decide

Ann

Many thanks for the reply Ann, I'm really tempted.

Cheers
