Hi All

Am banging my head searching for the "right smallish tent". Not pop-up.

Am wanting something for a weekend tent for 2 kids sleeping on campbeds with also a bit of room for them to move about in and would really like a built in/sewn in groundsheet in the porch. Fly sheet first and easy for one person (me) to erect.

Am looking on ebay at the Vango Beta 350 (porch doesn't seem to be sewn in) and the Vango Omega. Like the look of the Icarus but not sure if it's too big?

Please, any expert advice, greatly appreciated.


Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes

New! Please upload a photo of your tent to the Tent Showcase!

I've got a Vango Icarus 300 which is perfect for your needs. Very easy to pitch single handed, Has a full SIG. Has a bedroom inner and stands up to wind and rain if guyed properly. It also happens I might have one for sale. Used 5 times and in perfect condition. My only reason for sale is I'm moving on to bigger and better things IF the supplier ever gets stock in of my Cabanon. Now promised next week

Thanks for advice. The Icarus has certainly caught my eye.

We also have a Coleman Ridgeline vis-a-vis but its just a bit too big & time consuming for weekends and the lack of sewn-in groundsheet between the berths is really draughty.
