Hi Y'all

I have a Leben Aachen 6, a nice large tent, big enough for a week long holiday. I can get all my kit in there, kitchen, wardrobe, table and chairs, blow up beds etc etc etc. The other weekend I wanted to visit family, and the prospect of sharing a 1 bed bungalow with my Mum and the whole family, scared the be-jesus out of me. But I had no choice. Sharing a 3/4 wide bed with my ample sized OH and my expectant belly, 3 kids on double blow up in the lounge and granny on the sofa. Glad it was only for one night. 

Can anyone give me some pointers for a small tent to fit 6. It only has to do sleeping in, so not desperate for it to be stand-up-in-able. I dont mind if it is more than just a sleeping compartment, but it must be real simple to put and down, not vis-a-vis, small packed size. I've tried using the search on here, and have 10 pages of different tents to trawl through. Not easy.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the replies.

I dont like vis a vis tents, we've had 2 and in the past and it just wont work till my kids dont need me during the night. Then it will be pup tents. We've had them wake up in the night and panic they cant see us, nearly rip at the doors with them trying to let themselves out, and always end up with the doors open during the night, no good for keeping the heat in the pods.

My kids are 6 and 2x5 year olds, and one on the way...
