Hi,

We're novice campers looking to go camping in a couple of weeks. Just looking around for a tent to buy, has to be 3 man with a bit of storage. Any ideas? Looking at Vangos at the moment.

Thanks,

Julia

Hi Julia and welcome to the site.

Do you want a SIG (sewn in groundsheet)?

What is your budget?

Is it for 3 adults ?

Is there a limit on weight/ packsize?

If you state your preferences then I am sure you will lots of recommendations

Angie

Hiya,

Thanks for your reply. Our budget is max £65. It's for 2 adults, and no limit on weight as we're not backpacking at the moment, but not too heavy please! Not sure about the groundsheet, but presuming a sewn in one is better?

Thanks,

Julia

See the first post top of the forum page on sewn in groundsheets Julia...you will see opinions vary for lots of reasons!
