Returning to tenting after several years caravanning - don't ask- I'm getting bewildered by the choice on offer. There's just the two of us in our sixties but fairly fit so looking for a tent big enough to take a bit of gear and comfortable living space. Budget is up to about £500. Any recommendations very gratefully received.
We're in our 60 to, but very active, we just got a Berghause Air 4 blow up job, me and Mrs BB can but up the basic tent in 20 min, bit longer for all the other stuff, just been in a big rain storm no problem check it out at Millets / Blacks.
This should give you the space you are looking for, especially if you have quite a bit of kit to accommodate.
Ideally a 4 person should do for 2 people but they do tend to be a bit meagre on the living space.
We bought a Vango Edoras 500XL for just the 2 of us. Initially we thought this might be a bit excessive but like you we have quite a bit of kit and because our main holiday tends to be 2 weeks we don't like slumming it and having seen the how small the Edoras 500 living space was, opted for the XL and were glad we did.
If you want a poled tent then there is going to be a huge choice and you'll get more for budget.
