Outwell Bear lake and Norfolk Lake, as poly cotton tents, would definately be on my shortlist to view.

I will let others better informed to cover the lieks of Cabanon, Relum etc.

As for Synthetics, you have a lot of choice:

the outwell montana ticks all your boxes. if it's for 4 of you, the 6 will be fine,with 2 bedrooms.  if it's for 6 or 8, the monty12

big bunny you , must not have noticed kipp wants a tunnel tent

Hi.

We have a sunncamp family vario 900 tunnel and love it for the space in the living area and roomy bedrooms which you can stand up in. However, you will notice elsewhere on here that we have a problem with leaks which hopefully have been resolved with seam sealer, so you should note this really. Having said that I still wouldn't swap it as its so versatile with the annex which gives two additional bedrooms. We have endured three storms with the annex attached, with wind, and had no problems. The leaking problem occured when we used it without the annex, but other half is away at mo and had a storm yesterday. Despite not having the annex attached, it didn't leak so good news so far. We've got a dog and she seems to like it as there's masses of room. Also, it's easy to pitch, our nine year olds can manage with one adult to help and it takes half hour or so to get the main tent up. For us, it's the mut's nuts!!!

true. apologies, I skim read the original post.

And "yes" you can easily get a tabel and chairs inside the Montana 6.

Revised tunnel(ish) list: :

just purchased an Outwell Sun Valley 8 and camped for the first time in it this w/e on the Gower. great tent. will easily accomodate you, dog and furniture...also, saw another one on the site that had a canopy out front to extend it. looked really good and will be my next purchase.

had some strong wind on the sunday night, but it was fine.
