Hello from a noob !

My girlfriend and i are off around Cornwall for 10 days in September and are looking to purchase a tent, however it seems to be a bit of a minefield ! so we would be very grateful for some recommendations on what to buy, we don't really want to spend much more than around £80 and would like something quick and easy to erect (definitely not a pop up tent though) also I've heard bad things about Gelert ? so think I'd like to avoid them.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome !

Plenty of tents under £100 . You would be surprised at what you could buy . Have a look at Mashall Leisure website , there are some tents I would happily have started off with at this price .

Be seeing you!!
