Hi there

Am thinking of taking the plunge and looking at buying a decent tent for me and the family to go camping in

With such a myriad to choose from I am a bit bewildered- I had originally set my mind on a 8 berth tunnel tent, the Kalihari 8 from Go Outdoors but having visited a store yesterday it's massive, especially as there's only 4 of us and we don't want too huge a tent

Am after a 6 berth with 3 seperate bedrooms i.e. proper seperate bedrooms not just a material divider.  Happy to go with any brand and ideally keep price under £300

Any recommendations most welcome

Thanks in advance

Cheers for all your replies everyone

I've had a look around on the net and read some reviews on here and foulnd a few that could potentially fit the bill (admittedly some will have to be bought 2nd hand to get in budget)

Gelert Trinity 6 or Cyclone 6

Wynnster Condor Plus or Cormorany 6

Vango Kasari 600 or Colorado 600dlx

Khyam Tourer 600 or Hatfiled

Coleman Magellan or Columbus 6

Plus a Marechal Menorca or some of the Skandika ones but never heard of those brands so not sure how good they are

have a look at the Gelert beyond Corvus 6+2 - you will be able to get one on ebay for less that £300, they are excellent tents. 3 seperate roomy rooms - definitely worth considering.

Vango Samara 600 eveytime..Mega thick poles and is the updated Sungari 600 which was very popular. Super easy to pitch as well.

£330 - £360 ish.
