As one with very little experience I looked at the tent reviews on this site and seeing mxed reviews for the Montreal came to the conclusion that the tent for me was the Hi Gear Corado 6 - currently on offer at £249 (from £399) at GoOutdoor.
Thanks just had a look at that tent but we really want 1 bedroom pod that is separate and not joined with a curtain. I've seen the reviews for the Montreal as well and i'm split at the moment! Thats why i thought maybe the Aspen might be a bit better but i don't know lol! I'm hoping to find somewhere tomorrow that has both up so i can compare them, if not i'm going to have to take the plunge with one of them as we're off camping in 2 weeks!!
Let me know which one you choose! I'm very interested in the Khyam Aspen but can't seem to find one on display within the West Midlands. Keep me updated please!
No brainer.. Aspen !! It's like a dancehall, 11 windows !! We'd have one in a heartbeat and figure out all the pitching issues later. We've had a Ridgidome XXL for 7 years and have never fancied a pole and sleeve job but the Aspen/Cleveland models look pretty easy to put up with them having decent steel poles and not bendy grp ones. There's only two of us but we'd love an Aspen, even if it is 8 x 4 metres !!
