I've got the Royal Bordeaux 6, which is exactly the same just bigger. We were completely new to camping and the first time we went away it took us 2 1/2 hours to put it up. We went away for the second time last weekend and it took us 1hr 50 mins, but that included absolutely everything. Blowing up the airbeds, putting my kitchen unit together etc. We also forgot to take the instructions this time so did some things wrong and ended up moving tent pegs and poles to get it right. As the tent is, I think, 6ft 5" high you definitely need a tall person to attach the bedroom pods. At 5ft 1" there's no way I could do it, so that job was left to hubby who thankfully is over 6ft.
