Just used our new Zenobia for the first time for a weekend away,with 2 adults and 3 kids. It did take us a while to get it up as the instructions aren't very clear, but with a bit of trial and error we managed eventually and realised the easier way to do it next time. Great tent, huge space inside, we looked around lots of tents and this had the biggest bedrooms that were opposite ends of the tent rather than next to each other like most tents (great to stop kids arguing as they aren't next to each other!). The bedrooms are very easy to install and you don't have to have both bedrooms in if you don't want to. The two main doors and the doors to the bedrooms have mesh doors and door covers too so its great to leave the mesh on during the days so the air can get in but not getting lots of bugs in, which did work as we didn't get any spiders or bugs in our tent at all.
There is an EHU zip at either side of the tent, and under the 2 windows in the main part there are pockets for storing stuff which was useful, and pockets in the bedrooms too, and loads of velcro and hooks at the top of the tent for wires (EHU) and holding lights at night.
We got it in and out of the bag easily, just remember to lay it out flat and fold it several times each way to get it back into the bag. I've taken a point off the rating due to one end of the tent you can have a huge open door if you don't have the bedroom there, but although it zips both sides it just hooks a few times at the bottom so very drafty in the wind (but I'm going to rectify this by adding velcro to stick it together before we next use it).

Just done a very wet week in Somerset and very happy with my purchase. An easy tent to put up with plenty of space. We had 24 hours of persistent, heavy rain and not a single drop of water made it inside.
Great value for money (£150 from Go Outdoors). However, as with most 6-man tents, any more than 4 occupants would be a struggle.

First time campers. Bought this tent and used it for the first time this weekend. Originally looked at the Halfords tents but did a little research and finally decided on the Zenobia 6. Glad we did, absolutely fantastic. Easy to pitch and pack away, plenty of room for two adults and two kids. Rained heavily on the Saturday, not a problem for the Zenobia. Can't wait to use it again. Even the wife likes it (although nowhere to plug in the hair straighteners).

Recently bought this tent for the need for more space, and what a great tent for £144 from go out doors. Used it for a three night stay with a mixed bag of weather and kept us all dry with no leaks. We decided to put up only 1 sleeping area for the 3 of us to share which made the tent even bigger. Would have given this tent 10 but found that the other end of the tent to be a bit drafty in the night but was ok when we fastened the whole of the bedroom door as well as the flyscreen, its only fastened up with about 4 toggles, so I think I will add velcro fasteners to this which should sort this out for when we use the other bedroom. Other than that a great tent that is easily pitched.

After a bad experience with a borrowed Argos Pro Action tent we decided to buy one of these. Our first trip to Lake Ullswater for the weekend was brilliant. The tent was pitched in far less time than the previous tent, all very easily put together. Very large tent, loads of room for three of us and our pet chocolate bear, sorry Labrador. One word of warning though, zip up the mesh door panel as well or the dog might go for a walk on his own, there’s a gap at the bottom, which we forgot to peg down! The rain we had during the night didn’t even touch it. Very well made tent, easy to put up and put away, even has its own carry case.
Excellent tent, Buy one!

Love it! Recently upgraded from the Gelert Cadiz 6, and although the same set up the Zenobia is soooo much bigger. It was only our 2nd camping trip so we are still quite new to all this but the tent was a dream to pitch. Up in about 45 mins (our 1st time as well remember). It rained in the morning but we had plenty of room to sit in. We managed to fit ina picnic table with the chairs attached and 2 lounger chairs and our cooker and gas bottle. Home from Home.
Also we got it back in the bag first time. You just need to fold in so it's very slim before yo start to roll it back up.
And the best bit - it was only £149.99 from Go Outdoors in the sale.

We used this new tent in last week upgrading from a smaller tent.
Detail including fully sewn in ground sheet are a must in UK weather and this tent did not disappoint. Put it up and took it down in gale force winds and rain - only need two of us because one of us had to hold onto it in high winds. Strong and water tight despite best that Lake district weather could throw at us.
Found the inner parts of tent a tight fit and zipping them up was a struggle - will give it a second go on next outing suspect it was just our over enthusiasm in pegging outer tent down in wind that caused strain.
Only one issue as with other reviewers - folding away and into tent bag was a bit difficult and took a few attempts.

Bought this tent at the end of May from GoOutdoors for £180. Bargain.
Having not been camping before we popped it up in the garden which took 30mins! I had it back down and in the bag on my own in 20mins, since the dry run we are now able to have it up in 10mins!
Firstly trip we just tried 2 nights at Oulton Park for the BTCC at the end of May, and gained other ideas from the surrounding tents, we have since camped another 3 times and have added a carpet from the Gelert Horizon 6 and a porch which has improved it even more.
There are three points of entry to the tent, two bedrooms, zip entries for electric etc, and velcro hooks spaced round the centre arch to hook your cable up, 2 sets of pockets for all your bits and pieces.
Very easy to work out and a great layout,as there has only been 2 of us for most of the trips, one sleeping pod is left out which leaves plenty of room for living in.
As mentioned not had a tent before, but with this tent you can't go wrong.Bargain.

We have just returned from a weekend to the Lake District and I've got to say this tent was excellent. This was our first time pitching the tent and I was able to pitch it myself in around 30 minutes as my wife was too busy running after a 2 year old and trying to keep a dog under control.
It rained heavily on the Saturday night, however the tent stood firm and did not leak at all.
My next purchase will be the canopy/porch to match.

We've just come back from 4 days in Wales most of which it absolutely poured down. We hadn't got it out of the bag before an me an the misses put it up no problem even though we nearly drowned in the rain! I'd recommend this tent to anyone as it stood firm and completely dry inside. As for putting it away, we must of guessed lucky as it went in easily on the 2nd attempt at folding it.
