Hi everybody,

just wondered if anybody has any advice/ recomendations on a weekend tent. Its for me and OH for when we can get rid of the kids.

Any advice would be great but would like a SIG, up to 3 man.

Thanxs in advance.

Hi

We managed to get rid of kids last weekend and didnt want to take the Idaho xl.

went to Go Outdoors Bristol and bought Nevada 3 for £100. Great tent for a short break. Pitched in 25 mins. Rained a couple of nights solid and all kit was dry as a bone. Room for 2 chairs and table in "sitting room".

We even squashed 2 double air beds in to bedroom so we had loads of sleeping space. we then chucked one bed ontop of the other to create more space. A great addition to our tent family.

Hope this helps

Steve

Outwell Nevada 3 is under £100, is head-height and has living area. Would benefit from the addition of this £20 canopy.

I can highly recommend the Licata 400 as an ideal weekend tent.

Very quick and easy to pitch
SIG
Standing height
Spacious living area
2 massive windows let in loads of light
Bedroom can take 2 140cm wide double airbeds
Bedroom has diving curtain - bedroom and a dressing area?

If you search the Net you can get it for less than £100 - BARGAIN!!

Hi, have you got this canopy and if so is it any good on the nevada 3. Our tent is blue so not sure how they would look together

Yes, I do have it as does another member of the forum.  It works very well on a practical level but don't expect a perfect colour match.  Not groos, however.

Hi i loved this other tent but my OH said it was ugly, I told him he had no taste.

Thanx everybody for advice and we actually went for a Coleman Springrock 4.
