Just had our first family camping holiday bought from go outdoors for Ł116 total bargain. Loads of space for the 4 of us, left one bedroom pod out for more living area - we had 4 adults 4 kids a dog and a table in ours plenty of room. Easy to put up and take down, if I knew it was that easy to go camping would have done it ages ago, recommend this tent to anyone.:-)

I have just returned from my first weekend away in this tent. Bought from Go Outdoors in the sale at Ł130 it was a bargain. It withstood rain and wind without a problem, and was large enough inside for the children (and dog) to be happy about the need to stay inside until the rain stopped. We chose to remove two of the bedrooms during the day for more space and put up again at night. This might sound like a faffy process but it only took a couple of minutes. It was not drafty with the sewn in ground sheet. The only improvements I can think of is if the bedrooms were separate there would be more flexibility, as they are currently 2x2 ie 4 berth in one unit. Also, instructions are needed on how to get it back into the bag! this took much longer than putting it up!

Bought from Go Outdoors. Bargain bin Ł75 and missing pole replaced FOC! It's a big tent and might be tricky on some smaller European sites. Unfortunately Vango do not make a footprint for this model. Used for 2 adults and 2 children but we prefer a bit more space - useful when the weather keeps you at the site and the separate 'pods' give the children a little privacy & reduces rows! We also took it to the Vendee (like Jusheff21 above) and were grateful for having a Scottish tent in the wind and thunderstorms - till the 1st night of bad weather the children had been raving about all the pop-ups!

We love this tent. It goes up quickly and always looks good. The space inside is more than adequate. Only five of us use it usually by we have had it to capacity and got on well with 5 grown ups and 3 children. This is probably one of the best tents we have owned. We've just had our 9th holiday in her and she still looks like new! Fantastic value for money and excellent quality. Our camping holidays just get better and better in our prized Vango - everyone should get one!

Fantastic tent, got ours for Ł240 from go outdoors sale in 2003 at the end of the season. No several years later it is still really fantastic and shadows many others for room and quality. At a push I can pitch this tent on my own providing I have a guy rope pegged down. Only broke one pole in six years of use which was replaced for Ł4 from go outdoors again.

Just had to rave about our lovely tent after another trip away. It has gone from housing our family of five to just us as a couple. We now have the most palatial living area but when staying somewhere for a few nights is worth the extra 10 mins to put up. Its TBS system is good on blowy evenings to make sure you can go to sleep knowing it'll be standing when you wake.

I've had my vango vista for years now and have used it many many times. I cannot find a fault with it, other campers ask if they can come in and have a look, it's massive. It always seems to be the only one not moving in the wind. It's 27 foot in length but can be pitched sideways so doesn't particularly take up any more room that the other tents, and for this has a choice of 3 doors depending on which way you pitch. You can walk up and down it inside. Even when both bedrooms are used there is still lots of space to have your table and chairs inside. Great tent wouldn't swap it for any other. :)

I have just purchased this tent from my friend as a new tent due to the fact that he had never pitched the tent since he had bought it. As this was my first tent we had a great time pitching the tent. It was very easy. My feedback on this tent is that it is very tall, spacious, good bedroom space, fantastic living area and we hope to have many more great times with this new family fun product. We have started camping very late in life but it has been worth it. I am so glad that I have purchased this Vango Tent

Bought my tent off a guy at work for Ł100 (bargain)in 2005, not sure what year it was made, but think it was fairly new he had only used it once.

Used several times for camping trips and endured heavy rain and winds. Struggled to pitch in high winds and broke 3 tent poles at Filey Cliff tops, but mended with electrical tape and once pitched felt very secure. I love this tent and everything about it. Not got SIG but I prefer this.
