MY OH had a thoroughly enjoyable weekend camping in Derbyshire and coped OK (with our youngest daughter)sleeping in our new bargain Coleman Coastline 3.

However, she has now hinted strongly about having a more substantial weekend tent; one you can stand up in, has a bit of a living area and perhaps one large sleeping pod, or one that has a divider curtain. SIG would be a must.

Come on guys (no pun intended) lets have your recommendations, and if it involves a bargain wouldn't mind a heavily discounted older model.

One was pitched across from us , and they had the Argos utility tent to cook and eat in . A very credible weekender.

Now found the Gelert Stratus DLX for £94 inc shipping from Outdoor Action. Are they an OK seller?

Can not testify for Outdoor Action . But if you order the Montana 12 carpet from there as well , your order will be over £100, and if you pay by credit card you have protection .
