Hi newbie campers

If you want something that is very stable in the wind then it might be worth your while considering a pyramid tent.

First, you could try the Palamos 6 by Hypercamp. This would be plenty big enough and there are lots of reviews on here as well.

You could also consider the Esvo Beukennoot. Made with 320 gm ten cate cotton it is great quality and would last a lifetime if looked after. Would be worth while getting the screens and sun canopy which would take it over budget but would be well worth it.

Hope that helps

My recommendation would be for a canvas frame tent too. We feel secure in ours when it's blowing a gale, and in thunder & lightening storms.

The other advantage of a canvas tent is that you can cook inside the tent (being careful of course), instead of under a canopy when the weather is bad.
