Hello fin36.
My wife and I had decided we needed a bigger tent.
The dome one we still use, whilst being light and compact, is fair for a weekender.
However my wife is not keen on dressing/changing whilst horizontal.
I did some research, and ended up with a short-list of 5 possible tents.
In June, we attended a Tent Exhibition and checked out the models.
My first choice, 'Coleman Waterfall 5' was not as suitable as I thought.
However, when I noticed the Outwell Virginia 5 was on offer, I checked out the Minnesota 4 which it seems based on.
This one ticked all the boxes for both of us.
Full SIG (Bathtub type)
Detachable bedroom pod, also with Bathtub SIG
3000mm HHP
2 metre head height (I'm 5ft 14ins), and still I can stand fully erect in the pod.
Sufficient space in the pod for our 2 mattresses and kit.
I did purchase King Poles to use the door as a canopy.
Can be assembled by one person. (Takes me about 10-15 minutes for main guying)
I have posted an image or two on this site.
Oh! It is nearly half the cost of the Minnesota.
So, one to consider?
Kind regards James

In the beginning there was darkness.
Then I bought a tent.
I'm not destitute, I'm just poor.
