Looking for advice and suggestions please. I want to buy a tent for myself and I'm looking for one that I can pitch on my own without too much of a struggle, and I want to be able to stand up in it, I'm too old to be crawling in and out of tents on my hands and knees. It has to be able to stand up to rain and wind as well, as it seems every time I go away for the weekend thats what the weather is like. I do like the idea of the Vango tents with the tbs and dark inner tent. My maximum budget is €200 for the tent. All help greatly appreciated.

Vango Icarus is a great little tent, I purchased one for me and my 5 year old and I put it up, took it down and rolled it up by myself no problem, in fact I loved it so much we sold our big tent and use it now for any trip including when my husband comes along! It's sturdy too.

Bit of a curve ball - how about a pyramid tent? They're very stable and the single pole makes them easy.
