Hi all.  A friend of mine is looking her first family tent and wondered if this tent is any good -

http://www.millets.co.uk/camping/tents/group-and-family-tents/product/096509/VG-VERONA-SMU-NAVY-0.html?attribute=4788893

it's on offer at £199. I thought Vango had discontinued this one, perhaps this is why Millets are selling them cheap?  If anyone has one, can the two bedrooms at the rear be made into one large room or are they fixed?

I think this may be an updated version made for Millets/Blacks and not the original Verona

I was looking at one of these for a weekend tent.

Quite good spec and steel poles.

From the looks of this:

the main bedroom can be made into one room.

It actually looks like a "lower spec" version of this

Dornoch or Verona

As they are both part of the same group

Thanks, it seems quite a good tent for the money, just wish someone on here owned one to recommend it.  I think it maybe a little much for my friend to put up by herself as her boys are still quite small.

Should be fairly easy to put with a bit of practise, the Vango Icarus is also a pretty easy tent to put up
