Outstanding tent, set up in minutes.Plenty of space for cooking and living area. Is says a six berth. But plenty of space for 4 person, two doors one to the front and one to the side, we used the front mainly due to how we set up our cooking utensils. But would be looking to use the side door . Plenty of height I'm 6ft and could stand up easy. Would recommend to anybody to buy it.

We bought this tent from Go outdoors as we were shopping for our first tent and after lost of shopping around and endless visits to go outdoors we decided on this and was the best buy ever, we got it on special offer and bought the footprint and carpet too. It was easy to put up and when up very spacious, with two bedrooms, and a very good sized living area. Has handy storage pockets and lots of windows and 2 doors which came in handy on hot days to let the fresh air through the tent. I have to admit the carpet gives it just the extra luxury. I would recommend this tent as a great buy.

We bought this tent from Go Outdoors after we saw it erected next to us when we were in our 4man and I suffered from serious tent-envy.
The first time we erected this tent we were disappointed to find 2 issues- firstly, an eye was not available for attaching a peg into for one of the pods. Secondly, and really annoyingly, one of the small metal anchor points for the poles had not been sewn onto the tent base. These are only small issues but they do smack of a cheap build. Finally, once we had erected the tent we found a small hole, like a cigarette burn, on the front of the tent. That was a bit irritating.
However, it took only some 25mins to get the tent up in a breeze for the first time, and once it was done we loved it! Firstly, having a sewn in groundsheet is a luxury that cannot be done away with- it produces a superb bubble of calm that truly enriches your time under canvas. The space the entire tent encapsulates is simple huge. The pods are split 2/4 man with the larger pod easily capable of taking a double height, double air-bed with plenty of room surrounding the bed. The other we use to store clothing, food and everything else.
The living area is huge. It has handy velcro straps on the roof to hang lights from and a central hanging point from which we suspend a Hurricane lamp loaded with Citronella oil which gives us plenty of space to walk beneath without clocking one's noggin when ambling around. We have two chairs and a table that seats 4people but we find we use only a small part of the front living area. There are also velcro holes in the sides of the tent to push your ehu through. I also like the dark colour of the material as it seems to me to give a little shade early morning. I understand the weight of this tent when bagged is around 22kg's but I have not weighed it.
Wifey and I love this tent, it would be a 10/10 were it not for the 2 irritating faults in construction. I would however recommend this tent to you:)

This is my second review of this tent in the first review I gave it two stars due to on going issues with faults prior to going camping with it. We have just returned from our first camping trip with it from a very windy Seton Sands 28th May. The wind was shocking and the camping area very open and exposed, the tent did an excellent job of keeping the showers out, but it really impressed us how well it held up to the the high winds, it did lose its shape to the point that the front pole over the door popped inwards quite a few times once knocking our kitchen unit over which was a few feet away from the front of the tent, but the front pole would pop back out again taking its proper shape and its better doing that than the tent ripping or the poles breaking. We used our car to help shelter the tent best we could, we had two 6 person tents along from us the type with the central dome with the three pods leading off in different directions, well they where in an awful state with protruding poles and ripped guy lines, tried my best to help one of them as the owners where not there but not much you can do with no guy lines. Our neighbour in a caravan was leaving the same time as us so helped us put our tent down in the high winds so it wasnt damaged when not tied down, We then treated him and his son to coffees/juice. On returning the other tent owners where proceeding to put their tents in the bins as they were so damaged. If it wasnt for the build issues we have on going it would be ten stars.

Excellent tent. Camping mid May in North Wales. Very high winds and heavy rain. Tent coped no bother. Have noticed there are two versions of this tent. My version is slightly lower in the bedroom section and has a six berth bedroom as opposed to the two and four separate rooms. This is the driest tent I have ever owned. Muchos impressed. Never had a problem with water when opening the flaps, newer version maybe????

Purchased one due to the size of the living area ,having a small child so they have plenty of space to play should the weather be poor, but we are now returning the second due to the edge of the fly sheet thread being lose. First was returned due to having no toggles sewn in to roll window blinds up. Our first camping trip is this sat 28th so are now having to camp with the tent and return it when we get back. If only the build quality was as good as the design of the tent. Half wishing I had went with Vango or Outwell.

We used this tent for the first time in May 2011.
Unfortunately for us the weather was typically British - windy and rainy - however the tent stood up to this without any problems at all.
The bedroom and living areas are spacious ~ there were 2 adults and a 15month old - we only used the larger '4 person' area for sleeping, used the '2 person' bedroom for storage.
Erects easily (love the colour coded poles and clips for inner tents) and quickly comes down and packs away easy too!
I would definitely recommend this tent.

Well, its an amazing family tent.
After buying it last weekend (GO bargain £130!), I decided to take it away for the bank holiday weekend. It took two people about 20 mins to pitch, and we managed to sleep 5 children (aged 3-7) in the larger bedroom on airbeds, and 2 adults in the small room. And the main living area was ample for all of us to sit / eat , and have a separate a table to act as a kitchen area.
The carpet is great, and keeps it warm inside, it survived a heavy down-poor with no leaks and we had a couple of windy nights, and the tent stood still. A few of the tunnel tents on the site blew like wind-socks!
I've had a few other tents before this one. But this is definitely the best :-)

Just had my first trip in my new Voyager 6. Was my first camping trip (probably ever !) so was a bit nervous about putting it up, taking it down.
Needn't have worried - was nice and easy to put up. Peg it out, then 5 colour coded poles and sleeves. Took me and the wife about 40 mins I think to get it pitched, including getting the ropes pegged and getting the bedrooms hung.
Massive living room area - we had 4 adults and 2 kids sitting in it with a table up for beer and food, so plenty of room for what we needed.
In the big bedroom, got a a double airbed and 2 singles up, for me and the wife, plus the 2 kids (3,6).
That gave us the second smaller bedroom for storage which was great.
Timed it and it took us 23 mins to bring it down and repack it, though we did leave the bedrooms up this.
All in all, for £130, was perfect !

This is a fantastic tent. We got it on sale at £130 from go outdoors instead of £350. There's so much space and so light with windows on tent. Would definitely recommend if you love camping. It was blowing a gale but tent stood well and was comfortable in the fact it has a sewn in ground sheet so no wind allowed to come in.
