what size is you dome?

we have a 6 man dome and a 6 man tunnel and basically we fell the dome is okay for the odd night to weekend and the tunnel for anything more.

with tunnels you have the same height throughout, even the bedrooms, you really do have alot of space, and even though our dome is smaller than the tunnel the tunnel is a lot easier to put up IMO.

and most tunnels have good windows thus giving you a sense of more space..

we(and quite a few on the forum) have this http://www.buckscamping.co.uk/view_details.php?productID=320

have just uploaded picture of dome, check out my gallery, they are both 6 man tents, the difference is amazing, i dont think we could camp for much more than 2 nights in the dome unless guaranteed immaculate weather but the tunnel, you could live in it

We have the best of both -a dome/tunnle tent !!!

thats a nice tent skatty but i dont see where thats the best of both worlds..

there isnt much view.

what i like about the varios are the bedrooms are at the back making everything in front of it living space, so you have a front porch style area that just allows you to see everywhere.

the trouble with most domes is the lack of area to put windows in and because bedrooms are on 2, 3 and sometimes 4 sides it limits the 'porch' style area and visibility out of the tent.
