Hi we have a cabin tent bought it from Asda for only £49 its fantastic for the space and height but can be freezing at nights even in mid summer so we need another more sturdy one for the autumn and possibly winter camping. Question is can we get a 4 season tent for 3-4 people that you can stand up in? Haven't a vast fund can go up to £200 only so perhaps second hand might be an option but would prefer new if possible.The height is a major factor as it took me years to get my hubby camping now he's ok and enjoys it but would hate the crawling in a tent factor and I don't want to stop I love camping.We're off to waddington airshow next weekend and I think there's usually a tent display there but Any suggestions or tent type recommendations are welcome please thanks Denise

Hi thankyou joe+rich for that info that is a brilliant tent by the looks of it and the 400 would be just what we need loved the skylights to see the day/night views too.plus we've just found a site that sells them for £149 will check out the airshow but that one seems an almost definite for us . thanks lots for your help. cheers Denise

no problem but i would really consider the 600 as you can take the extra room out and have a larger living area for storage or relaxing
