We went camping with some friends who had a Gelert Horizon 6 - we really liked the design in terms of layout and space - so looked around for one and saw that the Hi Gear Zenobia from Go Outdoors was the same but cheaper (Wilkinson also sell another rebranded one).

Have now tried it out at a campsite - the weather was good so can't comment on its ability to withstand the elements! We did have a light shower one morning, and there was a bit of water inside the flysheet - but we think this was condensation as it was cold outside.

Space was excellent for us (2 adults and 1 child aged 3 and a half) - probably be a bit of a squeeze for 6 though. I'm 6ft 3in and can stand up in the central area - plus could sleep either way round in the pods.

Fairly easy to pitch and we even managed to get it back into the bag - we had practised beforehand though.

We also purchased a Gelert footprint - which meant the tent groundsheet stayed clean and dry plus gave us a good idea of where we were pitching the tent.

We used this tent over the recent BH weekend. Stood up to wind & rain no problem. Kept us all toast and warm inside it! Plenty of room for two adults and two kids (14 & 10). Would benefit from better pitching instructions to help total newbies like ourselves!

All went back into it's bag perfectly.

We ordered from Amazon- Go Outdoors seller on there as it was sold out everywhere else. We paid £144 + £6 postage & packing. Storage pockets for the living area are missing though and we are still waiting for them to be shipped to us.

Overall a fab tent and we love it!

Fairly new to camping and bought this tent due to good reviews. Used this for the first time, bank holiday weekend in Anglesey,the weather was horrendous got tail end of Hurricane Bill,the tent stood up to everything mother nature through at it. Very pleased with the tent,kept us warm and dry. I now want the carpet and porch, but everyone appears to be out of stock LOL.

9-10 given due to packing it back in its bag twice, 1st time wet through then again when I had managed to dry it out over the washing line. LOL

We used this tent for the first time in a wet and windy South Wales. The tent shook and swayed but it withstood all the rain and wind thrown at it.

The carpet which gives a little extra warmth is a nice touch. We hope to purchase the Gelert Porch ASAP! as this will give us that little bit of extra storage space and use the centre of the tent for relaxing, without falling over storage boxes etc.

Overall a really spacious tent at an excellent price (£149.99)

I brought this tent as I needed a smaller tent, we have down sized from a vango diablo 900. I was worried about it standing up to the weather conditions the vango does. Unfortunately on our first trip with this new tent the weather was very wet and windy with us having the tail end of hurricane bill. I can honestly say it did more than the job. It stood up to it all.

Very easy to pitch, my husband done it on his own in about 30 mins. It does not matter either which way around you pitch the tent as there are doors and zip for hook up on both side's

It was very spacious and plenty of headroom. I am going to invest in an added porch for my own comfort, I would recommend this tent to every one and very cheap at £150

Used this tent for the first time in a wet and windy Wales. It withstood all the rain and wind thrown at it.

Also purchased the carpet which gives a little extra warmth underfoot.

Easy to pitch and put down, even managed to put back in the bag. No issues with the tent at all. Ideal for 2 adults and 2 children.

I purchased the Zenobia on the way to our first ever camping trip. After returning 2 faulty tents to Halfords.

Was worried about leaving it too the last minute to buy and not being able to have a test run first. The Zenobia did not let us down.

The instruction were a little bit unclear but with some common sence and colour coded poles it was up within half an hour, but took us about another half hour to peg in down.

I think we went wrong by pegging before we attached the bedrooms as they were a little tight fitting.

We managed to take down in about twenty minutes I think it was just luck that we got it back in the bag first time with a little bit of a squeeze.

Overall we are very happy with Zenobia it had plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 boys aged 10 and 14. Compared against other tents of similar price £144 from Go Outdoors I don't think you could beat value for money.

Fantastic tent. Best £149 we,ve spent! Very roomy, loads of storage areas/pockets, very easy to put up/take down, complete sewn in ground sheet so excellent in the rain. Will last us many holidays! Like the idea of bedrooms at either end of tent instead of side by side. Bedroom zips a little stiff but may have been due to the tent being put up in the rain and being a little off square. But other than that, a very good buy.If your thinking of buying a family tent, check this out! Does exactly what it says on the tin!

Used this tent for the first time this weekend for 4 nights.

We had heavy rain and wind and there were no leaks in the tent.

The instructions that came with the tent are not very clear (hence the reason for 9 out of 10)so there was a lot of trial and error putting it up for the first time, but that said it only took us 45 minutes to put up.

There were only 2 of us using this tent so we only put up one of the bedrooms. The living area was very spacious and we also used the carpet which you can buy separately for £24.99 (a very welcome addition for the feet).

We didn't find that the end door let in draughts but they may just be through luck and that we only used this end for storage.

I think this is a great value tent for £149.99 from Go Outdoors and would recommend it to anyone looking for a tent for 4 people (I think 6 would be a struggle).
