Very easy to put up. Great looking, and love the fact that it has 2 separate bedrooms. In the biggest bedroom we managed to fit a double air bed & a single aired which then slept 2 adults, a 4 year old & 2 year old. The living area of the tent was spacious. I had read negative reviews regarding there being no windows but we didn't find this a problem as there are 3 doors you can open up. Also the main door does not zip the whole way round, but once I worked out howto do all the toggles properly this didn't cause a problem and the wind was kept out.

Now for the downfall (literally!) Our tent leaked down the seams! It wasn't major but I didn't spend Ł200 on a tent to dodge rain drops! Needless to say it has now been sent back. We have ordered the same tent again as I'm hoping that was just a faulty 1.

We have a caravan and wanted just a weekend tent so we got the Lakesbury 5. Not a bad size tent for us, 2 old adults and 1 young adult (an 18 year old ahhh). The front window is fab as are the two mesh doors on each side, but can't give this tent more than 5 out of 10 and I don't understand why, but this tent does not zip at the bottom along the front opening. The dog, who is an old 12 year old Lassie dog escaped in the night on the first night. I was frantic with worry and managed to find her wandering the site. It's a good job we hadn't taken any of our Lurchers with us. She had to sleep in the bedroom pod with us for the rest of the holiday. Otherwise it is a lovely tent.

Loved the room this tent has, 3 poles, easy to put up, tent carpet excellent.Sewn in ground sheet, so no draughts BUT twice I have used this,this weekend and it doesn't like rain, had terrible condensation inside, also pools of water in each corner ? this cant be right ???also does not have windows, mesh sides, which you cant open in bad weather as the rain comes in, very disappointed and going to buy another tent. Has anyone else had this problem - in rain, and pools of water
