I am looking to replace our vango 350 which we love apart from the fact that you cant stand up in it!.I am looking for a light weight tunnel tent with an integral pitch -in- one bedroom-money no object if we find the right tent!

I have looked at the Robens double dawn-a new tent this year-I am struggling to find reviews of this tent on the internet. Does any one know anything about this tent or can anyone suggest a three-four berth tunnel tent with standing height-I want to keep the overall size small-most standing height tents seem to start at 5 berth.Thankyou so much

I would second the suggestion of the Nevada. We have a 2008 Nevada M (which is 5 berth) and it is massive for the two of us. The 2009 models come in a 3-4 berth so I'd take a look at the reviews on those. Good points are SIG, can be pitched all-in-one and quickly (20mins), there's also extras like carpet, footprint and canopy as above if you were interested in that sort of thing.

edit: Have just discovered they now do a proper front extension for the Nevada M. Proper gutted as it comes in the new Mocca colour and our tent is blue :(

we also wnted a small ish tent with headroom and wanted the Vango Icarus500 but of course getting one is like pulling hens teeth.

has anyone got the Gelert Stratus 4DLX ? and how do you rate it?

The Licata 400 is a lovely, easy to pitch tunnel tent.
Bedroom takes 2 x 140cm wide double airbeds, there is a privacy curtain to divide bedroom if necessary, standing height, SIG, massive windows so light and airy, door canopies out to form sun porch, large living area.

If you search the Net you can find it for just under £100 - BARGAIN!!

Thankyou kind campers for your time in replying!Yes I know about the icarus 500-and that its sold out everywhere-until it comes in again next season at a higher price no doubt!Will also look into all your other suggestions!Still not heard from anyone who has the Robens Double Dawn-it was also new this year -would love to hear from anyone who has tried it!

Thanks again to all-happy camping!
