Doesn't look like a lot of room for five of you, unless you only want it for a weekend tent. You'd probably need something more along the size of the Indiana 8, It's also in the clearance tents for 120. You have to think if you have bad weather and are shut up in the tent for a couple of hours with 3 kids, table & chairs and all your other gear too. Tent bedroom sizes are not always generous, some 2 berths will have room for a double airbed and absolutely nothing else, not even a holdall. it can be very useful to have a spare bedroom just to use for storage of clothes and somewhere to keep the portaloo or bucket with a lid.

I have posted a link for the sunncamp vario on your other thread too.

I agree with this. Don't underestimate how much swag you will take with you, especially for five (and it seems to get more, year by year... )

Yup, and the kids will grow  so quick and want to bring their friends along too

maybe you'd better just get a 12 berth monster tent now and be done with it

wow the campus yale looks to huge for us, but then again all the stuff we will want, but we only plan to use it for long weekends, and it looks like its only me and the 3 kids as dh is refusing to go, as he camped years ago as a child and thought it wasn't fun, but he says he will give it ago but for 1 weekend only, therefore i don't want to end up with a huge tent that i have to put up myself.
