Hi, we had dilemma last year and ended up buying the Vango Maritsa 500 which was a disaster.
For us the bedrooms in the Glendale were too light but the layout would have otherwise been perfect and a lot easier to put up than the Maritsa. We did look at the Hawaii Reef but the budget wouldn’t stretch that far.
We have now bought a 2011 Montana 6 – bedrooms are darker than the 2012 deluxe version and I am pretty confident that it will be right for us (2 adults and 2 small children). It's been up in the garden and I put it up with the help of my 5 year old.

Good luck and let us know what you buy.

Both are great tents, my Vote goes to the glendale after seeing one in the flesh last weekend, It was side by side with a delamere 5 and to be honest I prefered the Glendale. much more useable space and no need for extensions etc as built in.

Compared to the Monty DLX its a tough one as the monty has bigger living space, but then you will probably want/need an extension/awning also.

Let us know what you get
