Best if you give more info.
How many will be sleeping in it and do you want to be able to stand up in it ?

I don`t think there are any leisure tents that are rated for 60mph+ winds, to be honest. You might have to look over at some of the high-performance four-season tents.

I think the highest rated vango leisure tents are the Vango TBS (tension band system) Vistas...

Hi

Whatever you get, mind and get some of Rob's ground anchors.

Not sure if they're designed for 60mph winds and above but I'm sure they'll do their damndest tring to keep you and your tent safe and secure.
