Fabric tent .... or .... Tin tent .... you'll get rain noise with the lightest of showers!
Goes with the territory I'm afraid!

Premier inn : )
I wouldn't dream of going out in anything over 30mph. No not soft just not worth the no sleep/possible damage. Wind doesnt usually last more then a day or 2 so go at a later date.

Canvas Dutch Pyramid - also known as Storm Tents (our 4 berth Pyramid is heavy Canvas and cost less than £150 delivered from Holland)
We survived some dreadful "summer" weather this year (including the night in July when many Welsh campsites were abandoned), proper Canvas is nice and quiet but nearby plastic tents and especially trees made a racket . . .
failing that, foam earplugs and a VERY large Vodka

Bell tents and canvas lavvu/tipis are fantastic in the wind. The structural strength is in the canvas. Ours don't budge at all, and all you hear is the gentle wafting of canvas.
