I have a Blacks of Greenock Solace 1....their 4metre variant.
The deal I got for what looks like a seriously tough tent, was £498, including a spare very heavy duty groundsheet, an inner tent (if wanted?), a large canvas awning or tarp with all poles etc. And delivery.
The Blacks tent is a lovely thing with one or two features not always found on some others, but what would be essential is how many of you intend to sleep in it, and the space for drying it, if needed. Stoves of all sorts of fuel types can go in either size.....
I would also endorse the Dusky Deer recc. above, they were up on my list!
If you have a family then I may suggest considering a five metre tent, but four metres is plenty big enough for two?.....
Re groundsheet, a detachable one makes for more versatility, and there are several ways of doing this, each with their own benefits: zip in, peg in or clip in, as in the case of Blacks Solace.
