We are looking to start camping and having looked at some tents in GoOutdoors (I prefer to see the tent up so that I can see what space there is) I was deciding between the Vango Icarus and the Mojave 5 but one thing I did not notice as there was a huge tidy thing hanging down the middle in the Mojave was do the two bedrooms at the back convert into one.
We have two boys 2 and 6 and there is no way they are sleeping in the same pod together as no-one would get any sleep we would prefer for the time being to have one big bedroom so that we can configure who sleeps where.

I would look at buying a 6 berth tent with 2 growing boys

Yes we have been back to Gooutdoors this morning and the Mojave has been crossed off the list. My husband liked the Outwell Nevada but we would have buy a canopy/extension for the front and I noticed the Corada 6 which is a lovely spacious tent with it seems plenty of headroom and a nice canopy over the front.
Why would you "have to buy" a canopy for the nevada? The Outwell Nevada is a much nicer, better quality tent than the Hi Gears. If you are going to spend more money you really should have a look at the Kampa website they make really nice quality tents

It was only that standing in the Outwell tent we realised that both door areas slope backwards and in the event of bad weather we wouldn't be able to have the doors open and I do not want to even contemplate cooking with a 2 and 6 year old inside the tent, at least with an extension on the front we would be able to still cook outside and also having that extra under cover outside bit gives you room to take off wet and/or muddy boots and shoes and coats without dripping all over the nice carpet inside. I will go over and look at the Kampa website as well though and see what they have, thanks.
