Having spent most of last summer camping every other weekend, we've now decided that the tent we have (wynnster shrike5) is too small, and we need an upgrade...
We're after something bigger, but not massive... Something we can stand up in, but it only has to sleep 2 of us, and i like the smaller tent's 'cosy' bedroom..
Most (if not all) of our camping is at weekend dog agility competitions, so something easy to erect on a friday afternoon is a must, and something that'll hold a group of people (8-10ish?) when it rains on our bbq!
I like the look of the Outwell Hartford L, but i'm unsure about the groundsheet in the main area - doesn't something like that get full of water when you tramp in with wet feet / dogs?
Anyway, enough waffle, any comments? Any alternatives to the hartford L? Anything under 200 quid considered!

If you only want a tent with one bedroom, but space for 8-10 to sit, why don't you just invest in a dayroom and either keep your existing tent, or else get one a bit taller but still only up to 4 berth? That way, you get the best of both worlds, surely?
The Khyam Freelander is quick to pitch, has standing height in the living area but still retains a cozy bedroom inner (£145 with free footprint groundsheet, here), but there are lots of cheaper alternatives.
Outwell Oklahoma dayrooms are very popular (£119.99, here, available in blue or green), or the Khyam Day Shelter at £89.99 here might be worth looking at?
Just a thought...best of luck, whatever you decide!
Here's another suggestion; if I was after a quick to pitch tent for two, with standing area in the living area and a good sized but cozy bedroom, I'd go for this, but then I do prefer canvas!
(By the way, if you rolled up the divider in that inner you could fit a double high airbed.)
