Haydon 5 or Vango Iris 500. I am stuck on deciding any help would be appreciated. The hi gear is £150 the Coleman £180 and the Vang £210 is the extra cash really worth it?

We have the Enigma 5 as a weekend tent. Great little tent if there are 2 of you or 2 adults plus a small child, imo 3 adults wouldn't work. Easy to pitch (15 minutes from start to finish) and pack away, decent sized bedroom and living area (as long as it's just the 2 of you). We got ours last year in a GO sale, very pleased with it, worth the money.

the enigma is excellent value just now around the 150.00 mark and last week there was a random 10% off so would have been 135.00!.
personally though - unless you need the front extension in future, id go with the radiance 5 - the flat front allows more effective use of the space inside and also it has a canopy over the front door so rain wont come into the tent each time you come in and out.
Higear tents are excellent value particularly if you can get a deal!.

Went with the Enigma 5 and spent the weekend in The Forest of Dean. Nice tent very happy with it and seems very good quality for the price. Deciding on whether to get the canopy now?

Well decided to add the bundle to the tent from Go Outdoors. I think this package is extremely versatile for the price. Adding the canopy should give us the ability to use the tent for more extended stays as well as just using the tent itself for weekends.
