Hi I am looking for a tent tall enough to walk in/stand in.

Big enough for 2 people and 2 medium dogs.

Sewn in ground sheet.

Choice to unzip the doorway and keep a fly net up.

Thank you in advance

Hi louisaL,

What is your budget? Are you just planning weekend camping trips or longer?

Loads of people will have recommendations, my advice is to go and look at as many tents as you can, make yourself a shortlist, and then check out the reviews on here.

Hi LouisaL,

Steer well clear of the new Vango Inflatable Air-Beam tents!

They're very expensive, and despite seeming fantastic (speed of putting up), they seem to be full of flaws.

Reports of leaking windows, zips, exploding beams, missing pegging out points, holes in door mesh etc.

Just check out some of the reviews on here!

Try and have a look at the Wynnster Eagle 6, it's certainly my favourite.
