Hello! I am on the lookout for a new tent and wondered if you lovely folk could recommend one for me please! On the wishlist are
1. 5 berth- ideally in 2 bedrooms split 3/2.
2. Easy to erect by one person with a minor bit of "help" from a 6 year old.
3. Sewn in groundsheet.
4. Enough room to stand up in.
5. Big enough for 2 adults and 1 child to have 2-3 nights away.
6. Max budget £300

I have been debating if air poles are worth it however I think they are out of our budget and the Decathlon ones don't have a SIG.

Thank you all in advance!

If they had still made it the HiGear Mojave 5 I have would have been ideal .. erect it and take it down solo ...just sold the addon front porch for it last year when I bought a Studland 8 and use the Mojave for weekends.

It seems the 5 berth tents have shrunk in width since they stopped the Mojave... maybe if you have a GoOutdoors nearby have a visit and see if any current ones suit for size etc

Update! I ended up buying a Vango Amalfi 600. Got a new 2018 model for £400 (yes over budget!) but decided that the air pokes would make easier single handed pitching. Now for the rain to stop so we can try it out in the garden!
