What about the vango sigma 300+ this one has 2 entrances, one at each end. I have the 300 only version, which only has one entrance, as a pup tent for my son, he likes it.

Hope this will start off with ideas for a tent..

If you are near a Decathlon grab one of their Quechua pop up tents. I've had a couple for about 7 years and they are still going strong. If your son is anything like mine was he can go from a teenage grunt in the car to crashed out in bed in less than 5 minutes.

another +1 for the vango ark - its up and pegged in 10 mins - iv got the 400 version - loads of room for 2 in case he wants to bring a mate with him to ease the stress of Having to go camping with mum + dad lol!!!

i got mine as nearly new - it hadnt been pitched but taken out of bag and put back in but i got it for 45.00 and its a brilliant big little tent!.i could see any teenager being very happy in their!. he wouldnt have to see you all holiday! lol

Remember not to get anything too big or the campsite will be looking full price for it. I use a Gelert Rocky 3 for a pup tent and that's probably about as big as you could go.

Thanks very much, some good suggestions there!!

There is a Decathlon in Sheffield, about 40 minutes away. Could also go to Towsure and Go Outdoors too (any excuse!)

Any suggestions for industrial strength teenager deodorant
