We have a Vango Tigris 800, but we are looking for a reasonably priced quick pitch tent for 1 or 2 night stays.

can anyone recomend one to us please.

Looking at a coleman waterfall does anyone have one of them?

Cheers,

Chelle

It's for 2 adults and 3 kids.

Also looking at a Gelert Atlantis 5 & Vango Icarus

Cheers

I wouldn't think the Coleman waterfall would be up to 5 people. I know it says 5 man, but who must those five men be, maybe they're all Oompa Loompas.

I don't think the Icarus 500 would be much better. I have three people to fit into my Icarus, admittedly my 12 and 13 year old boys are getting to be man sized but we barely fit in. In fact it's better when one of the boys sleeps in the little 2 man pop up outside.

There is an Icarus 600 DLX as a special edition in Outdoor world I think. It would be a quick pitch option, but it's pretty similar to what you have already so you may as well just use what you have already.

yeah, just fancy a smaller one literally to sleep in when going on a walking break or beach break etc.

We have a 3 man vando too which was fine for me plus 3 kids this week and took 10 mins to put up.

Ideal for 1 night so thought something a touch bigger but as easy as that would make us go camping on short breaks more often

What about a couple of four man pop ups from Decathlon. Then you could get the tarp from Decathlon too to create a shelter for cooking and eating.

2 x 4 man tents at £54 each

Tarp at £20

I use my small two man pop up as a beach shelter, means we can eat sandwiches without sand in them.
