Hi

How many people for ? What ages ? What type of trips are you planning, weekends or weeks ?? etc.

We've got the Diablo and we think it's a great tent. It's bedrooms will take a double and a single airbed i.e. three people but would be very cosy for three adults. Porch is great.

Hi happycamper104,

I have seen the Suncamp Olympic on display and it looks a very inpressive tent.

Almost bought it our selves but already have to many tents.

Happy Camping

 Hello to everyone. I am a new member to UK Campsite and have not been able to talk to anyone as yet. Regarding your tent decision. I have a Sunncamp Olympic XP, my 13 year old son and myself  managed to put it up in half an hour, for a big tent i thought that was great. The inside of the tent had loads of pockets so that you can store things and the great thing about it is that it has porch so you dont have to walk straight into the main part if its been raining, so you can keep the main part dry and clean. Well if thats what you are looking for, i suggest you look at both as i have not seen the other one and look at the pros and cons.

Well I hope this information helps you to choose between the two.

Hey, Streety62 you have three tents - just for kicks or is their logic in your excessive madness? :->

How do they compare?
