we own a Royal Winnipeg 6 which we will be using for our anual camping trips in the UK & Europe (hopefully) but we also like to go for weekends whenver we can & would like to buy a tent for that purpose.
We have a few requirements, still needs to be roomy & of really good quality with a nice bit of living space for the little one.
Cooking area is not essential as we will mostly eat out or BBQ.
Has to be reasonably priced too so any suggestions or links or pics would be great, thanks for reading !!

Then I am off back home to Australia, where the weather is always perfect for camping :)

Hi all thanks for all your input - we have just ordered the Vango Icarus 500 with canopy & carpet from Yeomans for under £200 !! Not sure if we will get the chance to use it now before next year but hopefull we will get it up in the garden to check it over.
We have the High Gear Electron 4 for our weekend camps.We are a family of 4.We find it great for 1 and 2 nighters,ok you cant stand up in it but so what.It takes 10 minutes to pitch.Agreat weekend tent would highly recomend.
Just relised hope the Icarus is ok for you .Personally we dont bother with the carpet and canopy for a weekend all adds to the time.But each to there own.Happy Weekend Camping
When the hubby takes my little one for a nice little walk & mummy stays to read her book she does like to sit under the canopy & I would be lost without it - even for 2 days :)
Hasn't arrived yet but I am so lookinf forward to getting it up out the back garden
we have ordered a tent for weekend getaways not tried it yet but hope to soon when it arrives...its a quechua 4.2 pop up tent :) the reviews look good and I love the idea of easy up and down :)
