Lots of room, lots of nice features. However it seems not to be well made, with some of those features dropping off from very first use and most importantly poles seem to disintegrate all too easily. We use the tent several times a year but I don't expect to have splintering poles (children beware!) on every other outing.

Great family tent we love it,if it broke tomorrow we would go and buy another one. Plenty of room you are able to fully stand up ,it goes up and down within 30 min. My son who is 10 and I put it up easily.You have a big living area and even more if you don't need all the bedrooms. The tent has withstood some very bad weather. We have had our tent for 2 years and have only had to replace 1 pole section ,we regularly use it from spring to autumn. We successfully get the tent in the bag but use a separate bag for the poles.

It Is an fantastic tent with loads of room also plenty of head height a six foot person would be able to stand upright We have had no problems with it even when we encountered a heavy downpour and very high winds.Very easy to erect it took us under one hour the first time we used it. We've now pitch it in less than twenty minutes We have just purchased a sun porch to go with it this year which only cost us 25.00 in the kyham winter sale. I would recommend this tent

I bought this tent as a second lighter weight tent for quick weekends away. What a fantastic tent. Loads of room to sit and relax inside if the weather is not too good, even with 3 children. We have the sun awning for the tent too which we use to store the stove, etc. And provies a good area to kick off our muddy shoes. The tent held up well with windy weather.
The only one, very small criticism is that the groundsheet is not sewn in completely around the doors, and having a small dog, she could escape!
All in all, a fantastic tent, and I could be tempted to sell our other tent and just use this one!

It love this tent! It gives us (family of 4) loads of flexibility, with the option of adding/removing sleeping pods. The huge living area has a high enough ceiling for an adult to stand comfortably. The only thing we miss is a porch to take off muddy boots (although I see a note that the latest model includes this). It has withstood some pretty blustery weather and some very heavy rain, without any leakage.

After borrowing a tent for a weekend away we caught the camping bug , a friend recommended khyam tents and I decided on this one ! A quick trip to the local scout hut for a dry run (it was raining an wanted to check it was all there etc)putting it up , completely pegged out bedrooms buttoned it took about an hour! Taking it down was a doddle even went back in the supplied bag

Used this tent for the first time in the last week of August in Cornwall, it survived Gale Force winds with no breaks and no tears, other tents were ripping and blowing away. Have to give this tent 10/10. I have got a few little niggles no inner mesh on doors to stop the bugs getting in, also I would of liked to see zipped bedroom dividers. On the whole a great tent with plenty of room.

I love this tent! We have just returned from our 3rd camping trip, 6 nights in Somerset (second trip with this tent). We mostly had good weather but one night had heavy rain and winds, there were no leaks and I felt confident that the tent would keep us dry. The SIG is great for stopping drafts and bugs I would def always go for a SIG now. We were a party of 5, 2 adults and 3 teenagers and had plenty of space, the option of 3 pods gives flexibility for setting up the sleeping arrangements and the largest pod is very roomy. We take so many extras with us like duvets instead of sleeping bags but this tent never feels overcrowded or over stuffed. I did notice that when we were taking down the tent one of the poles had split but am confident that it can be repaired or replaced (this might have had more to do with the tiny pitch that we had been squeezed onto - so putting this down to the quality of the campsite/pitch rather than the tent). Can't wait for the next trip.

Have just come back from a week in Wales, weather was very hit and miss. Had a really stormy night when tent woke me up as it hit me! Extremely windy and lots of rain. Tent has withstood it all (found one split pole - but easily repairable/replaceable) Only comment would be get better pegs than provided, as guy ropes just kept coming loose on windy night, thus making tent sway in wind. Plenty of room for the 4 of us and didn't suffer any leaks - great tent overall

A very good tent, plenty of room for the 5 of us (2 Adults and 3 Children). Very sturdy and reliable even in strong winds of 40mph, we erected it in 30mins and took it down in 20 - 30mins and we got it all back in the bag first time. Overall we were very pleased with it and would recommend this tent.

Manufacturer's Description
Tunnel tents give a huge amount of space for a minimum of effort but with the Khyam Ontario 8 berth tent there is no loss of useability.
This tent has three bedrooms so you can trade off berths against living or storage space by simply removing a bedroom. Also the Ontario 8 tent offers a sewn in groundsheet that ensures you can keep the bugs zipped out!
